Soon to be released 47439 1/10 TT-02 Type-SR Chassis Kit? Swap bars please!

Hope it's the type s with useful upgrades that will help racers.

Looking to use a TT-02 Type-S in VTA. Anyone have a setup I can start with or know where I can find one? I'm racing on a very small asphalt track.

Yes hopefully this is just a R version of the S and comes with all the aluminum upgrades the regular R or RR come with. If so this will be the Pro Spec setup to have.

If you are talking about the Tamiya TCS series GT Pro Spec class, I doubt the SR will be legal if it's based on an upgraded S chassis, as the rules for that particular class specifically exclude the TT-02S. At least in 2019...

If you are referring to a different series, ignore me and carry on.

Yes you are correct, I forgot they allowed the S in the Novice Spec class but not the Pro Spec class.

All good. The only reason I knew about it was because I was just looking at maybe building something for that class (and eyeballing an R).....then I went and got stupid and pulled a trigger on an TB Evo.7.....because I needed another standard TC . Will probably look at an R again later in the winter if it looks like I'll have time to race w/ some of the guys down south that run a TCS style class structure (including Pro Spec) next summer. I just tend to get super busy over the summer w/ road trips and bike riding that RC typically takes a back seat until winter when the weather is less than ideal outside.

I just picked up this TT-02 Mustang GT4 from a chap who had a change of plans. The body came painted but I had to add the decals. Looks OK and should be fun for my club's proposed TTGT class that calls for stock TT-01 / TT-02 with the silver can motor but USGT tires.

Looks familiar Steve, mt GT4 was also painted in Corsa Grey.
If you can make the trek we race TT here in Vaughn at Phoenix RC as well. Next Trophy Race is Race 3&4 of Phoenix Cup. January 19 and February 23

It's such a nice color.
Looks like the offset of those rims tucks the tires under the body.
If you can run the 'wide' axles (if your rules allow) it will flush the rim to the side of the body.
I had the same thing happen with some other tamiya bodies that are more of a 190mm width for the 186mm width chassis. I'll see if I can dig up a photo.

The wide axles are not included in the kit, and as we are running a box stock class I doubt that I can use them anyway.

really? I didn't know that.
They wide axles are on the standard 'C parts' tree.

Seth

The manual has the axles greyed out with the note of "Either Rear Wheel Axles C3 or C6 are included." with the C6 being the long wheel base. Tamiya must adjust the kits depending on version to include different axles.

I do have two center shafts and two A5 steering parts though along with the motor mount for a 380 Mabuchi motor.

The Gravity USGT tires are 24mm while the kit supplied rims and tires are 26mm. Looks a bit better with the kit tires.

If I add a 1mm wheel spacer and use the serrated wheel nuts, the Gravity RC tires move outward slightly and look better.

Use the kit wheels/tires on the shelf. On the track run what works... USGT Premounts.
Myself and a Buddy have tried USGT Tire on kit 26mm +2 offset wheels and they just don't work, car is stupid loose.
With the narrow track width it runs much faster and is easier to drive.
