[QUOTE=Woof6;15588750]Hello All, 20+ year racer, but been out about 10 years now and looking to get back on a very slim budget. I don't really know anything about Tamiya, but founf this and was wondering if anyone had any experience with it. Based on the tt01-e, which so I've read so far not the best of choice for VTA. But this has the upgrades and CF chassis so thought it might be a viable choice. Can't beat the price. Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

I think this car is more for drifting then racing.
I would see what the other people are using at the track. You might get lucky and they might have a class requiring a chassis that doesn't cost much, to get people into racing. Track I race at has a class for stock tt-02. I can race for about $350 and know I'm not competing against people with about $3000 into their car.
I would look for a used X-ray, Associated or some other chassis made for racing, if your looking to save money and be competitive on a track with open chassis racing.
