I am looking for kaizen rollers(paying top dollar) only: serious offers only...Good luck....
Ft chassis excels on black carpet, while DD chassis and Kaizen(easiest to work on) are good for asphalt(med to low traction)...

I looked for Kaizens before I bought the Diggity. Good Luck finding one.

The DD is too much like the factory team(hard to wrench on)...The kfr has everything made easy, with the possibility to fabricate an aluminum chassis for carpet without too much machining....

The kfr came out in small numbers, and exactly at the time when I was too focused on other things. I would have purchased three new kits at once if I was not so busy and all... Hopefully I find at least three kfr kits for sale(full price offers), no DD please...

Welp, if you wanna try the Diggity, I have one. It's too nice for me to race and tear up.

Picked an original Team TC3 with box and instructions and took it to the track. Managed to get some IRS central drive, bones and diff outputs.
Tested it out and was only about .500 a lap slower with a slight adjustment to setup from the manual. Love the raw sound of the drivetrain ripping down the straight.

The TC3 was very competitive for this format of racing. In fact, it was clearly at an advantage. It ran cooler, had a visible speed advantage and finished the races with more juice left in the cells. All crucial for stock racing.
Loved that car!
Edit to add: I finished the indoor winter championships 2nd overall with that car, in my first touring car championship, up against a field of about 100 drivers - including 2 Schumacher Team drivers and a number of other sponsored drivers who were often in the magazines at that time.
I was over the moon with the result as the highest placed privateer. TC3 was waaay ahead of it's time and very reliable/durable.

I still have mine and a load of spare parts. I sold off everything else and this is my last and only R/C vehicle now. I will sell one day, just not sure I am ready just yet. Of all the sedans I have owned, I keep coming back to the TC3 as it just works so well. With the addition of the RPM wide front bumper, the chassis is almost bullet-proof.

Can anyone identify this aftermarket TC3 chassis?

Looks similar to the Irrgang(irs) chassis but they didn't have battery slots on the motor side or the braces for the interior sections of chassis.....😳

It might be an extreme racing chassis.
