We started running the TT02 class and we are having fun. One guy our state champion with a box stock beat us with on hopped up kits. Now I'm doing a realist looking Datsun 240 Z #33 Paul Newman car. Can't find a 280ZX but . I'm also working with my light guy for working brake lights and headlights. I have them on my F!- when you hit the brakes they blink and go when not braking. When I get it done I'll let everyone know but it will not be anytime soon as my light guy is also working on our other project a timed pit stop for our F1 cars (portable). Maybe we will use it for this class in the future?

Can you get commercially available lighting kits that the brake light comes on when you're on the brake? Any i've seen it's just on all the time

Fakirr- I have them on my F1 car and having him do the same for the TT02 body I'm going to use. I've been selling the F1 lights around my Florida tracks for about a year. When i get my first one's I'll post them. But it won't be anytime soon- probably a month or so.
I do have the present light kits out there but I like to have the brake lights come on when I hit the brakes- looks real.

That would be unreal Bullfrog. I like the idea of lights, but the idea of working brake lights on my race car would be something else.

I have my guy working on them and they will go on my Datsun240Z. I will be just headlights and working brake lights - no turn signals. Just adding fun to this class around here. Plus a working stop and go system possibly for this class as well as our F1 class( Most car races have pit stops).

Is there a recommended alternate screw kit. Would like to swap out for allen head screws. I can certainly construct one from screws I have or can order, but thought I'd check to see if there was one people liked. Any issue going with the finer thread of the common 3mm screws in current kits?

I just purchased a generic kit off Amain.com

Are you planning on using the machine thread screws in the existing self-tapper threaded holes?

To simplify further:
The only types of TT-02 Chassis that include Bodies are:
TT-02 (base platform)
TT-02D (drift spec): includes oil shocks and full ball bearings, which are simply the most relevant "upgrades" to your question.
Variations in price within the above group specs are typically related to the licencing associated with the included body.
All the other variations of TT-02 platform do not include a body.

I never found an actual kit that wasn't stainless, which I didn't want. I ended up ordering a bunch of the Tamiya brand steel hex screws in the appropriate sizes, and them a few off brand ones where I wanted to save some weight.

Is there a reason I should not?

Yeah racing made some nice titanium hex head screws that I'm using on my car.
