Nice paint!

Finished my TT02R. It was a good build. I have blue springs all around with the Tamiya yellow shock oil that came with the kit. Black plastic spacer inside the shocks. AW grease at the rear diff and front has the diff lock.

hello!

can someone give me a starting Setup for carpet and outdoor? TT02S
at the Weekend am struggling with my car at the Tamiya Eurocup (black ETS carpet).
At the begining everything seams fine but then the Desaster started.

thank you!

I've only run on black ETS carpet once with my TypeS but spec was kit shock positions, TRF (42102) shocks with 3 hole pistons and 40wt front and rear, AW grease in front diff, blue (hard) front springs, yellow (medium) rear, 3 degree rear toe in, droop stops fitted but no droop screws in the arms, no toe-out on the front (just parallel) and a glued up servo arm. Car was dialled every run. Couldn't fault it, just used less tyre sauce as the grip came up. When did yours go bad? As the carpet rubbered in?

Hey man come on out with it. I can help you tune that tamiya in at thunder. I run a old school TB03 and I am competitive. Very competitive.

I will be more than happy to help you tune that bad boy in.

What is it doing that you don't like? What would you like it to do that it doesn't?

On the black carpet you may have to clean your tires and then apply traction compound.

in the finals it began to struggle.
maybe I also set the front to low.
I´m so frustrated that at that time, that I think in the wrong way.

I also sauced the fronts only half.
go from blue/blue spring to blue fr / yellow rr but no Change.
I had 1,5° toe out front each side.
spool front, aw grease (Little) rear.
drop screw front screwed out to lower front (I think that could be the reason)

1.5 deg of front toe out is very excessive. I would reduce that as well.

I've just ordered a TT-02R to get back into a bit of local stock class/VTA style racing after about 15 years away. It all started with a TA-01 so i'm looking forward to building this type of kit again.

Just wanted to say the reviews and useful info on your blog has been a great help Oatmix

Just finished up my TT02R build.Added a few shims on the suspension arms to take up a bit of slop.Put a set of TRF shocks on also.For now I threw in a 17t brushed system I had.Will add a 17.5 brushless system come warmer weather.Hopefully test it out this weekend.

Great job.

Where do the UK guys get the Yeah Racing parts from?

I have got some from RC Mart.

Nice build!

By the way, my son will be racing my TT02 in our novice on-road class this season. Happy that my TT02 will get some race time.
