Hello,

First tests with the ITF chassis on asphalt with Rubber (LRP RP 30).
The car is really more easy to drive.
I started with the spine plate and i finished without. The car was even more easy and gave a feeling of more grip on the rear.

Good job from AE !

There's obviously going to bias in this thread. Haha.

Any other thoughts on the comparison?

You'll have to hold someone at AE at gunpoint before they'll ever admit it

it took a few years to come up with a TC4 after the TC3. it's been 4 or 5 years and there's no NTC4 yet to follow the NTC3. heck, the RC10GT is more than a decade old and there's no GT2 or whatever yet....

so i guess, the TC4 will be around for a while. nice thing about it is that you feel like you have the latest car still not like other companies where the car is only "new" for a year, sometimes even less (i.e. 6-8 months for Kyosho SP1 to SP2)

Need some opinions before shopping.

I had a FT Tc4. And now a T2. Just forget the TC4. The T2 is so much better.

Probably because most of AE's design team and team drivers went to Xray, which would also explain how long it takes AE to develop anything.

My next cars probably Xray though having said that

. Having said that, I like the challenge of the TC4, and I think its as good as car as any to develop my setup knowledge and driving.
