They look pretty fast haha... IDK if the stock Ta05 will be that fast who knows. Its got a similar design like the JRXS with the motor and belt bein in the middle of chassis.

The ta05 is much different than the jrxs. The battery is mounted on the side of the chassis, not down the center.

I wish they would have shown the actual car in the video all they showed was it going around the track looked good though

Heh, I know that . I read that the TA05 will come in two different bodies. The Ferrari or a Mercedes. The Mercedes is like $20 cheaper than the Ferrari. Will SpeedTech be carrying this body too? Or just the Ferrari? Also, do these bodies come prepainted?

If you do a search at Tamiya USA's site for Ferrari F430, second from the bottom of the list is a "finished" version, coming soon.

I doubt you'll find anyone running the 26mm tires. the 24 is more the standard now.

You'll have more channels to choose from with 75MHz (ch. 61-90) as opposed to 27MHz (ch. 1-6). In asia I believe they use 12 channels for 27MHz, but it's usually not allowed at North American tracks.

I'd take the 75Mhz model.

What kind of suspension blocks will the TA-05 be compatible with, the Evo III/IV, or the 415?

Also, what car is that rear aluminum upright from? Is there a part number? Is it compatible with any model using the TA04/lightweight arms?

All the blocks are interchangable. The only difference between the 415 and the evo blocks are 1 mm in height. I can't remember which is which.
As for the hubs, there are 2 different one for the LW arms there is a 0 degree (53807) and a 1 degree (53784)
