I didn't come up with those coloured pictures

Anyways, the IFS looks neat! It looks like it comes with LW Suspension.

BTW, the upper deck of the TA05MS is higher than the TRF415MSX/MSXX, as the bulkheads are the same as the Porsche, therefore, it is a Porsche, with standard wheelbase.

the only reason i got a ta05 is cuz i could join the gt1 and gt2 races for tamiya. if the ta05 comes out with the double deck cf chassis then it wouldnt be allowed for gt2 class? then why not just buy the msx and leave it?
well i jsut spent 350 usd and bought a fully hopped up ta05 from a shop owner. it has more hopups than the ta05r. he gave me almost every single hopup available.

As long as you ran the tub chassis kit (TA05 or TA05R) it's GT3, GT2 and GT1 legal, but with the carbon double chassis it wouldn't be legal in GT3 and GT2.

Is there anyone who just sells this as a kit instead of piecing them all together?

Ya Know, Chris. Chassis Whore isn't accurate. Chassis Slut is more appropriate. Whores do it for money. Sluts do it cause they like it.

It's for the EBBRO 350R body.

That car has a very low nose.
