it might help to put the tires in the microwave for a few seconds to get them alittle softer.. but they will go on.. just very very tight.
here's my NTC3.. and 5 tanks of gas ago, i had 100% tread! lol

Bunsincunsin,
Can I ask how you made your intercooler? (Maybe you bought it
)
Is there somewhere I can check for an Intercooler Tutorial?
sorry if this is the wrong place to ask.

I used different thicknesses of styrene sheets to make it. You can use it to make practically anything...
I think there are some tutorials on DRCCentral and RCDori and they show you how to make intercoolers with other materials. This was my first time working with styrene and I think they turned out pretty good.

Side-View mirrors:
If you need more info just ask!

looks like it could be use for some other accessories as well.
Are those same material ppl use for making architecture models?

GTO2,
Here's a great example of scratch build using styrene - http://forums.radiocontrolzone.com/s...8&page=2&pp=25

Thanks Wallyburger!
GT02,
I think it may be used in arch. models, but I also know it is used a lot in model train building, as well as model cars.

Ta05 or yokomo?
Any one drifts with a ta-05? Does it react better to throttle changes compared to a yokomo SD?
