Oh, I forgot the glorious pics from speed running

Also forgot about this nice Tamiya piece I spotted at the USTE drift track this year.

For those using the diff locker what outdrives are you using to fit the TT02RR dog bones?

Why does the oil diff package come with four little o-rings in addition to the larger o-rings? I used the 5mm ones for the diff as instructed.

I believe the small oring goes inside the outdrive cup so the dog bone dont fall out.

My newly-built TT02. First Tamiya kit I've built in a while. I forgot how much fun they are to build.

It's got:

Fast Eddy bearings
eBay alloy steering bellcranks
eBay alloy driveshaft
eBay alloy CVs
eBay threaded-boy shocks
Tamiya alloy motor mount
Tamiya 'high speed' gear set

Want to get:

Steel 'low friction' ball joitns
Softer springs

Haven't had it out for a run yet. Need to glue the tires on, but I'm really happy with it.





And with my recently-restored RS4 Rally.

Looks great! Love that livery.

Hi All, I’ve read the discussions about droop, but I missed whether it applied to carpet or asphalt. Would 2mm shims inside all four shocks be reasonable for medium grip asphalt? Considering using 1.5mm o-rings with a half mm shim.

I think I went overboard on this build I put together for USGT 25.5

I used TRF 419 arms and installed DCJs in the front and CVDs in the rear.

Also the Hiro Seiko kit for the TA07 works great with the TT02

You have connected your Multimeter wrong?
Illegal motor tuning?
A complete mess?

My TT02's first run.


She's not fast, but she's quick enough to be fun!

Aside from some 'wandering' off fully-trimmed steering, which is probably the result of play in the steering links, I'm very happy!

aluminium screws are nice... but that steel turnbuckles hurts really!
