Lee- Here's my TA03's! After a long wait, these are the cars which have taught me what I know about this chassis. I prefer the TA03R atm, as it seems to handle better. I will adjust the suspension setup on the TA03F, or it'll always handle like a pig!

TA03F-






TA03R-





TA03R with Skyline body-




Group shot-



Enjoy!

Chris.

update on the TRF, front one way changed for bevel diff, Castle Link has firmware update which is said to decrease cogging, waiting on a pair of rear axle's to replace the current bent one's, and i hope the wheels are not also bent, but just incase, i have some spares.. cant wait to get her running again

seems the TRF could make a shelf queen yet.. i have this shell on the way with the H parts (rear wing and mirrors) plus the decal sheet, the decal's alone were over £10! (20$!) the wheels are also in my sights!

also with regards the snow tyres/wheels, i have some spare body mounts which i could fix in place of the standard one's (to raise body height/tyre clearance) whenever we have snow.
