Status: offline 		Yeah, my tires are just the stock slicks. They do OK in my opinion, but I've got nothing to compare them to seeing as how I'm new to this arena. I can't imagine doing a ten foot circle at full speed! That sounds incredible to me. What tires are you using, biGmik? Anyhow, I got my custom LED's hooked up and thought I'd show you guys the finished product.

I use Take-Off rubber tires (I normally use 27 degree ones, but as its winter now in Australia my next set will be 22 degree tires) or I use foam tires. I like the foams the best, and for $15 you can get a full set of 4 foam tires!

Also, if you turn at high speed they squeek like real 1/1 tires

Status: offline 		I own a TB01, and from the pictures, the tt01 and tb01 look quite similar. I know the tb01 is an obsolete platform now, but how do you guys think the two cars stack up, performance-wise? The old TB is gettin pretty beat, and I might retire it in favor of a tt01 or maybe a tb02. I do things to this car that sould not be done to a sedan, so toughness is a priority.(love jumpin off stairs!)

Exactly!
It reduces the chasis flex especially if you have intentions of putting in a more powerful motor it is key for this factor to stiffen things up to receive optimal bang for the buck when you go to upgrade your motor and gearing.
I'm strengthining everything so when the bigger motor goes in everything will be optimal.

Toe-in rear up rights
26/55 gearing

Status: offline 		G-Ped, it really is unfortunate that ignorance can be so bold sometimes. I'm not calling anyone ignorant but it's funny how so many times people are quick to make others look bad when they don't understand the situation. If you're pushing the limits of your ESC I always think it's a good idea to disable the BEC and power the electronics the old-fashioned way. There's nothing nitro wannabe about that! It's just smart.

I noticed that you've got a 26T pinion. Where exactly do you find those? Does it require a different spur gear? Does the motor mount have the proper spacing or do you need a new one? Thanks.

Thanks for the support.

It's just a normal 26t 32p pinion gear. Well, the motor mount pattern just continues, if you get what I mean.

For a 19/61 you should use motor mount holes A. For 20/61 you should use holes B. For 21/61 you should use holes C. For 22/61 you should use holes D. For 22/58 use holes A. For 23/58 you should use holes B etc etc, the pattern just continues. So the last pinion/spur gear setting in the TT01R manual is 25/55, which use holes A on the motor mount. And obviously that pattern will continue, so 26/55 should use holes B. And if you want to run 27/55, you would use holes C.

And I guess if you want to run a 52t spur with a 28-31t pinion, you could if you continue that pattern.
