I'm willing to trade a New 14T blue LPR racing ESC 3.1v Generation+ forward/break no reverse for a tamiya TEU-101BK New. P.m. me if interested. I don't really use this since I went brushless and I could use the Tamiya ESC to put into my restored Rough Rider buggy so I can have reverse, besides I only have a silver can motor in the buggy so I don't need the 14T racing ESC.

I wondered about this as well. 3Racing offers a urethane front bumper, but unfortunately, it doesn't fit the Mini Cooper body. It fits perfect on the Swift body or any other bodies with a longer front end. My only complaint is the weakness of the plastic bracket. Although it has a carbon bumper support, it would be stronger if it was designed similarly to the TT01E.

Hi all,
I just bought a M05 pro. I'm looking to replace the shocks with alum. Are the 3 racing alum shocks any good? Can they be rebuild with tamiya shock parts? I only bash and maybe club race, no tcs racing.
Thanks

I just bought some for my M05(the blue TRF copies). Seem OK for the price .
except, one of mine didnt have the top seal/bladder thingy, so was just slowly leaking all the oil out in the box. I think thats why they use that packing material, to soak up any leaking oil.
The ball connectors were weird, top was differnet size ball/connector than bottom (why??)
Im pretty sure 3Racing sells rebuild kits for em if needed.
