Yes, that's no problem. Front and rear diff are the same.

Send me an email if you need one, we have them on stock.

Thanks

Like most race level cars, no. If you would like a saver, i would suggest the Xray 4 ring version.

I haven't run it with a modified motor yet but I don't think this will be a problem. The stock belts are very tough and there is also an option to get wider belts. The stock drivetrain uses quality steel and aluminium throughout which lasts a long time. The Capricorn nitro cars are known for their very low wear.
The pulley material is the same as they use for the nitro cars which is also has a very long life.

The car doesn't come with a servo saver but you do get three different plastic steering arms in the kit.
I've been running mine on a indoor carpet track with solid track markers and haven't experienced any issues whatsoever, the car seems to be very strong.

For the ones interested, I've uploaded my carpet setup.
The car has been super good, and I beat my own time which I set with the Awesomatix.

It should be a good car, no doubt.

It's incredible how many manufacturers are launching electric TC's these days. That gives us:

TOP
Tamiya
Kyosho
VBC
Capricorn
Yokomo
Xray
HB
Serpent
Team magic
AE
Spec R
3 racing
Corally
Schumacher
Team titan
Awesomatix

That's 17 manufacturers with a high-end TC ! incredible, it's just the widest diversity any RC class has ever seen at any time, for sure. And I'm not even counting varitions within brands ( CEFX, RSD, Exotek... )
It's interesting and sad that Losi is not in that list...

Hi,

We had the first race this weekend with the TE01 and the car performed very well.... Michael Johnsen ended up 6th in the Super Stock Class...

He did a lot of set-up testing 14hours Friday and app. 800 laps and on this specific track he ended up using this set-up ..

Take a look and see if itīs something you can use..

Thanks,

Niko

i doubt it, but i hope so. a few friends of mine who drive the nitro car called them and asked them if they had thought about carrying this car and they said no. it a shame though because it is a good brand and im sure more people would drive this car if amain had parts in stock. i know of at least 8 people around here who have the nitro car and we all need parts.

I'll be glad to help you guys out, we carry almost all Capricorn products and what we don't have on stock we can have 2 days later.

We ship world wide and can deduct the VAT for outside Europe customers. We ship by FedEx Economy or FedEx International Priority at very good shipping rates.

Just PM me if you want price list for Capricorn products.

Besides Capricorn we also have the distribution of Orcan Engines, REDS Racing engines and JP Gimar.

And Im always open to give a good offer on any of our products

Thanks,

Nikolaj
