I have a TrackStar 21.5 Brushless, Hobbywing stock Spec ESC, and Savox servo. The battery is racer's edge 2S, 5000mAH. I stopped in one weekend and the cars there are super competitive, I think starting with a TT02 may be tough! FDR is 3.7 - 3.8, so I plan to try and run a 72T spur with a 50T pinion. I know I have a lot to learn to get racing, but hope to have some fun as I learn.
With the stock gears in the TT02 you won't be able to run a 72 spur. You may have to figure how to achieve a similar FDR using Tamiya gears. They are a different pitch. When I ran a TT01E we ran 55/25 with the solver can motors.
