Wooooo. That's a good looking car! I really like the matte black graphite.

Must just be a geometry change. I messaged one of the Euro top drivers and it’s the first thing he mentioned. Would be nice for them to point it out in the manual maybe. Although you don’t get setup tips in yokomo manuals.

droop on this car you need to add 1mm. So if you ran 6 and 5 it’s now 7 and 6.

Only changes I made were 2.5-2.8 and 2.7 springs.
were you able to test out its durability? 😅

Managed 4 runs with no major incidents and outdoor usually more forgiving. Just check screw tightness as new carbon things tend to come loose.

I can't wait to see one run at our local track. The local team driver got his monday. so it's going to be interesting.

Other than a slightly different shape yes.

It’s quicker than the old one so I’m not too bothered what they’ve done. Just an evolution of an already good car.

Only in the sense that all mid motor cars resemble the mid motor layout of the TA05.

Is there likely to be a solid chassis version in anybody's opinion or knowledge ?
