www.titc.in.th/

FYI for some current info. Don't know about good pics though.

Hi All, I'm not a cyclone driver yet but very sure it'll be my next car. Can someone lead me to a good source where I can get familiar with the various models of cyclone that have come out. I'd like to know for sure what I'm buying if I find a good used car.

Nothing newer than lower, upper deck and the belts changed the side, that's all!

Best regards

first of all i think the cyclone geometry as it was is still very good the only thing it needs is better lipo support.
this car I think it changed quite a bit.
so far obvious visual changes i've seen:
-new chassis plate
-new one piece topdeck (now including the old rear topdeck)

-new motor mount bulkhead (coming across the chassis?)
-belts changed side
-new central pulleys (thinner, no more boss so mounted like yokomo?)
-steering servo rotated
-used (new?) alloy front steering blocks
-different FR suspension block?
-new rear shock tower? (this one is notched in the middle and we didn't have that yet)

and i can't see very well but there must be a new alloy bulkhead front or rear holding the spool or diff as the current cyclone cannot support a long topdeck over he entire car. so far i think it is at the front.

btw if you find more or better pictures please do post here!

I'm interested if HB will release a whole new car, or it will just be something to add on to the Cyclone. It seems like a lot to add on to the car.

I had a chance to watch Hara's new car run during the TITC race, I have to say it was very impressive. It was very stable, yet with very sharp steering. It carried so much speed thru the corners. I have to say the new car is a class above the others. The car's action was not the same as any other cars, including the current cyclone. I can't wait to get one.
