True true. I'll take a look at it again.

Hey guys, anyone know where I might be able to find the 3racing gear diff for the M05 in stock. Turns out the two I ordered online are now back ordered.

Cheers,

There was a couple at Grest hobbies Edmonton.

Cool I'll check it out, thanks!

Hey guys, I'm looking for the 3Racing M05 battery holder. Let me know if you have one to sell or know someone who does. Thanks!

Black anodised dampers, new hex style ball studs, hex screws all around, and what appears to be fluorine coated front camber link screws

Edit: wishful thinking.. Those are just black anodised hex studs

yawn..

I just realized we don't have a sleepy emoticon..

At least they put hex screws with it. I wish that would be a standard thing on R cars from now on.

Front Camber links appear to be the 'option' bits...with the optional Flourine Coated pivots.
I spy RA Carriers Front and Rear.. And possibly a LaserEtched ServoSaver cap (unless its just a sticker). Low Friction Rear Camber and Steering bits as well.. Alloy Battery mounts for 'tape'..

This looks like a race ready car, I like it. Yet Tamiya should truly make it TCS legal and provide that Reedy motor they are requiring. Hex screws all the way around are a very nice improvement.

Instead of RA hub carriers they need reformulate the plastic from peanut brittle to version A: reinforced plastic like TRF cars and version B: flexible plastic like the TA / TB cars.

Last time I counted my spare C hubs, I have 6 right and 2 left lol. Maybe I need to convince them to run the race counter clockwise for a while

Including the Reedy motor would be unwise, as it'll make it poor value for those of us who use different spec motors.

M05r looks awesome

I have a feeling it's going to be really expensive. Big bore TRF dampers, double cardan shafts, full black aluminum.

Looks really nice though!

I disagree, ...Tamiya hosts a championship race, they already have many flavors of the M05 available, -it only makes sense to me to have one of those versions be a true TCS legit race-ready car.
