Well, here she is minus one steering servo.

Set-up:
Short M-06 chassis kit with Alpine body, no special edition.
TEU101-BK ESC, removed the switch, removed the separate power line to the Rx. I mounted the ESC in the middle of the chassis between the shorty lipo and the diff housing.
Carson Cup machine motor, mandatory in the Dutch Tamiya Cup.
Quick and light steering servo Corona DS-319HV, still in the mail.
Carbon shock mounts front and back, back on alloy bracket.
Ball bearings all around, thoroughly degreased and lightly oiled.
TA-05 turn buckle set for the upper suspension arms.
CVA shocks, two hole pistons in the back, 3 hole in the front, standard CVA kit oil.
Blue springs in the back, yellow ones in the front.
M-05 ball diff.
Currently M-grips in the front and S-grips in the back with stock hard inserts as per the kit, but more rims, tires and inserts are ordered.
I also ordered the anti-roll bar kit and a ton of shims to tighten her up.

The CVA shocks come from my TT-01 cup racer, which has received alloy dampers. I might upgrade the M-06 to alloy ones, too, in the future.

Here are some pics, ‘cause I like looking at other people’s cars, so I should post mine too.







The door lines need to be redone. The yellow and black is a bit of a theme, last year’s TT-01 racer was like that with a Ferrari 458 body, and this year that car will have a similar paint job on an Audi R8 LMS body. Team colours, so to speak.
