AE/TLR Parts Commonality
Hi all, newbie here. Was wanting to get back into racing in the next month or so and figured I’d start with two off-road classes and add two on-road classes sometime after. I have a 1/10 indoor clay track about a 30 minute drive from the house, an outdoor 1/8 track a bit farther out, and a couple asphalt tracks roughly the same distances but in different directions as well.
Figured I’d start with the closest option, the 1/10 clay track and go from there. They run 2wd buggy in various classes, 4x4 buggy, 2wd stadium truck, and 2wd SCT (though the truck classes run less frequently than the buggy classes). And they have ample scheduled practice time available which will be incredibly valuable to me just starting out again.
At that track, they support AE, TLR and Xray the most from what I can tell, and in that order. I don’t have any brand preferences at all but would love to minimize the amount of spare parts I would need to buy/keep on hand. My question is this: do any of these brand’s have common parts between their different kits?
I’ve read a lot of threads and couldn’t really find what I was looking for, but maybe I just suck at using the search function. My apologies if this gets asked a lot but I definitely would appreciate any guidance on this, thanks!
