Hey Jason,

When you get a chance, check out the TC3 Oval thread. I have posted some pics of the 2 piece rear body mount I cut. I also posted a pic of the "OVAL ONLY" upper deck.

You are the man dude.......................

Thanks a bunch.

Oh, we also picked up LRP and Associated for our upcoming project.

jfcj-any Xray chassis you'll have interference problems with the short arms and the servo. You have to mount that end with the top screw only and even shave the servo ear thinner to make it fit.

Wink TC3 is awesome

OK guys took my TC3 down to my local club last night.

Took me 15 mins before I could even get near it to get it ready for a practice run.

I think you will be receiving some more orders shortly (do you pay commission)

Anyway finally got it on the track this time with my usual 4 degree block carriers.

Oh my god

The car was amazing and whereas I used to get the occasional grip roll with the tub chassis not a thing with yours.

Qualified in pole and then went on to win the final, lapping my nearest rival (a guy I normally race head to head with).

The only thing I'm probably a little disappointed with is my choice of colour I think I would have preferred the blue chassis now I've seen the titanium in the flesh.

But who cares about that, cant wait for finals day tomorrow.

I finally got some time today to throw a little Bling at my chassis. I inlayed the upper and battery braces with silver epoxy. It turned out pretty sweet. I did one in dark blue but its a little hard to read, the silver shows up nice.

Default some changes

Can you guy briefly describe some of the changes existent in the BMI chassis that makes it better than a graphite TC3 chassis?

Thanks


Matt
