Once I mentioned it to my local race buddies they decided to grab some TT02 kit's as well and create a new class for our track. Rules being bearings, stock pinion size and hex screws permitted. Must use Tamiya Bodies only. This should help bridge the gap between a fresh new comer and a $1200 TC set up. The cars can always be upgraded with some key parts and put into another class like VTA or Usgt even.

I opted for the new S550 GT4 stang kit and got it done

Packed the diffs with Aw grease and the first few packs the car was on the money right off the bat. For reference the fastest VTA cars were 9.7 fast laps to 10.5 mid pack. I could click off 10.0-10.2's almost every lap with this TT02 and it looks great doing it. It's not insane fast but the Silver can always does good by me! Nice water break in with some oil on the bushings and away it rips. I still have to finish the head light buckets but I will have a Raikiri body to try shortly. Not great pics as of yet but here's a couple to get the idea

Did you do anything to the dampers? Or just stock kit with springs only?
