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.

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
