So why are you looking at TT02s?
Because I'm bored, and a carbon-fiber chassis car is not a good choice for running on dirty pavement. The carbon fiber will get chipped along the edges, whereas a plastic tub chassis won't suffer any meaningful damage.

Where do you see carbon-fiber chassis kits for $110, anyway? I've never seen them that inexpensive.
