The car had good steering and was controllable if you wanted to stay on the throttle some in the turns. Let me know how the car does in practice and If you need to make some changes I will help you dial it in.
bro,

thks for the help.

thanks

What races do they have going on in the winter over there? My cousin just moved to California from Korea so I have a place to stay now while I was there I would like to attend a big race on the left coast sometime in the future. Get to see my fam and race rc, can't beat that

We need to make some stickers for our tb-03's that say in small enough letters
" You Got Shafted"
I want one for the rear of my car and some small ones that will blend nicely with the tamiya decal sets

Maybe one that says "Got Shaft?"
Anyone have one of those printers that do decals?

Default Good Shim Kit?

Anyone have any recommendations for a good shim kit with a wide variety of shims?

I know Tamiya makes a spares kit with nuts bolts and washers not sure if or how many of what size shims come in the kit. It's $$$ though.

I'd build your own. that way you have what you need.

Hey Tim, thanks for the support. I'll talk to the guys at Tamiya and see what we can do next year.

In the meantime, Speedtech will be open till 9pm this Friday for the TCS Nats. If you need last minute supplies, can't sleep, lost... drop on by.
