Congrats to Timmie for winning the Glen Burnie TCS GT2 class with his TB03!
He probably would have taken GT1 if his servo didn't go out

I'm sure Laurie will have his raffle winning TB03 flying around the track soon.

Nice to have pitted with you guys.

And thanks to Timmie for his help getting my TB03 going.

Congrats to you Timmie!


Top three at the Showdown in Pro were all shaft cars.

Well I just got home from Maryland TCS. Had a good time. Great racing and awesome group of racers. I took TQ and first in GT2 with my TB03, and TQ'd in GT1 with my EVO5MS but had to skip the main due to a servo that crapped out on me. TB03 was really dialed all this weekend. Shaft is back

Hey Timmie. Great driving, congrats to you and you're Tamiya TB03!!
I know what car to buy. The TB03!! I'm totally convinced

Thanks a lot Markus Was really nice meeting you and racing with you. You are a really good driver! It was nice chatting with you about the racing and TB03 Yeah I was a little bummed about the servo dying right before the main in my evo, but that's life. I'll have it back on the track soon with a new servo

Glad I could help make your car faster.....now just get that spool and you will be golden!

Out of curiosity, were the other 2 shaft cars TB03's as well? If not I was just curious on what chassis's they were...

haha you're funny Yeah I will post something up as soon as I can. Still drained from no sleep in 2 days hehe.

Thanks for the compliment, I am glad that I can be apart of showing the capabilty of Tamiya shaft cars And I'm sure you do not suck at driving Don't get me wrong though, I love all Tamiya's I just think that the shaft cars gets overlooked a lot with people that automatically say, "belt cars are better..." or that a plastic car can't hang with a top end car. But thats ok, Us TB03 drivers will just have to keep putting the smack down on the non believers

Thanks for the offer! I sure will. I the meanwhile I'll be reading this thread about the TB03. I already know a lot more about the TB03 and how to tune it then a few weeks ago.

Hey all,

Kind of a longshot but does anyone know of a hobby shop in MD that might have a carbon tub for a TB03? The place I ordered mine from emailed me saying they had a inventory error So doesn't look like I will be trying one out this weekend in MD unless I can find one up there. Markus, you don't happen to have one laying around for sale would you? Tamiya USA only does UPS ground and Speedtech is out of stock Any help would be appreciated.
