DeTomaso Pantera's sizes AV.200mm/AR.210mm/EMP.255mm (front, rear, wheelbase)

TT-02 is 257mm, the 2mm difference won't be a problem right?

Edit: Found a website telling me to put 0mm offset in the front and 6mm in the rear...

Yeah it fit ok. Im waiting for my te37's to add to it.

Has anyone taken their tt02r to an off road track? Do you feel the rally tyres are sufficient or are lacking? Im wondering if anyone knows of any alternatives

I ran in a forest on wet ground with leafs. Rally tyres were at the limit of their potential, hard to keep on the small paths you can find in a forest. I mostly run on snow, it's just absolute fun.

I recently bought the Kyosho DRX TRT21 tyres, I'll try them out soon and give a feedback.

Any good advice for tyres, I mean generally?

banzaihobbys has quite a range. Just don't know what's good

For the TT02R owners, has anyone used these?

Wondeirng how they compare to the tamiya rally block tyres for off road racing?

Also has anyone also used the generic rally tires from chinese sellers on ebay such as ...

i ordered some speed mind soft rally block tyres from dinball/rcmart. Will post back with a review

Hi Guys,

I'm in the middle of making a very tuned TT02 with some custom parts. I also managed to try out the new steering step screw hop-ups.

They are not as awesome as the steering set, but they are so cheap they act as a good upgrade if you do not want to spend the cash on the aluminium steering set-up.

that looks good. I think I will add them on my list of new parts to upgrade my car.

Also I have been running the TT02 against some friends. I will be racing it soon at a local onroad club. The car has the kit motor, should I leave that in and get used to the track or should I buy a new motor? I did use to race but that was a long time ago.

Found the problem. When building the TT02 I thought I'd take the play out of the steering by over tightening the plastic balls; squeezing them to make them expand. This was a bad idea because it caused binding in the steering. All is good now that I have loosened it up.

We had it out in melting snow and had a great time with it. It has a waterproof Traxxas servo, and waterproof XL5 speed controller and waterproof Traxxas radio box. I just washed the car off under running water when we were done for the day.

is anyone still using the stock servo? I'm having no issues with it.. or maybe there could be a lot more potential with the high torque servo saver which I tried to setup but failed.

Im using the yeahracing adjustable tie rod and my trim now is at 4 points to the right out of 30 (used to be about 20 with the stock part!)

Had the car out in rain today for the first time. The traction (driveway track) was actually very good with the stock treaded tires. I was not expecting this. I suspect it is from the rain washing all the dirt off the driveway.

Im using the high speed gear set with the optional 64T spur gear and 29T pinion. This puts me at 5.74. Is there any way to go lower? Is there a smaller spur gear I can use or a 06 module 35/35T pinion set? I can't seem to find anything like this. Basically whats the easiest way to get my FDR lower. Secondly, would a silver can on a medium sized track handle an FDR in the 4's?

You could use some 64pitch spurs and pinions, i'm able to use a 90T spur with a 50T pinion on this chassis.
That will give you a FDR 4.68, As long as you have the right spurs&pinions you can go even lower then 4.68.

FDR of 4.35 above

If you get the TT02 adjustable motor mount then maybe lower ones are available.

Okay so I can use any 64 pitch spur gear with the high speed gear set? I thought maybe were limited to a couple 04 module Tamiya gears.
