My tc3 + is my bashing car and my [link=http://www.ashburg.com]duratrax warhead[/link] 4x4 is my baby...I almost went overboard today when I drifted the TC3 about 2" away from a street drain LOL. AWW I could just see that thing literally going down the drain. Luckily, it flipped just as it approached the drain at ~30mph

Bent a front turnbuckle last Saturday, ordered the titanium one from tower...this thing still cooks with a bent turnbuckle

will post pics of this weekends bashing soon.

Anyone here in South Carolina?

Awesome...I know the area well...lots of racing there in Greer. Do you have any offroad vehicles in addition to your tc3? Reason why I ask is because we're doing an R/c exhibition for a kid's summer camp in June. I'm trying to get all the guys together that I can.

Interested? Email me at: [email protected] if you're remotely interested or if you know someone who might be!

That almost happened to me last summer with my RC18T! It actually had both front wheels in the drain already and the only thing that stopped it from falling all the way in was I held the throttle in reverse! [sm=eek.gif] I didn't think a TC3 would fit into one of those drains. I'll have to be careful this summer!

Hello everybody, major newbie here hehe.. Decided a few days ago to order a NTC3+ Been fun reading all the material on this thread

Hm and ofc. a ?
Starter-box.. easy road to start heaven for the + version? Or only for Non-pull?
I wanted to buy a "conversion kit" so i get non-pull and rear exhaust.. but this starter thinguie sounds interesting.

And another thing.. Offset on wheels waht does that mean/do?

Sorry for any typo's.

You don't really need to do the non-pull-start conversion to take advantage of a starter box when it comes to the Plus. Most people who do that are doing it to shed any mild drag and weight. But if you are getting that serious about such things it's better to get the Team kit.

The Plus RTR is standard side exhaust unless there is a different non-U.S. version out there. So you would have to get a different engine to go rear exhaust. However you can choose either with the Team kit.

Offset wheels add width to your wheelbase, giving more stability. Check your local rules, especially if they abide by ROAR, I can't recall if that affects the 200mm limit.

Kit or Plus the NTC3 is a great car that can bash or race. Good luck!
