Default narrowed down to 2 car choices!

I've narrowed my search for a new car down to two. They both have they're pro's and cons. Both are complete RTR kits. What should I get for drifting. Brand new TT-01 or a used TC3? The TC3 is prettymuch stock. Both about the same price.

No brainer - TC3 (cheap spares, bombproof, race winning pedigree)

I have a TC3 and it works well as a drifter. I would recomemnd it especially if like in my area that all the LHS carry alot of spare parts for it. Not that you brake alot drifting, but if like me you might ware stuff out.

Yea I probably wont break stuff but I'm the kind of person that if theres parts available when I have some extra cash laying around I have fun picking out new parts and installing them.

The TT-01 is cheap and has alot of hop ups available as well. I think they are about the same build quality as well. The TT-01 is a great learning drift chassis. Just add drift tyres and its a great drifter. It was a great learning chassis for me, I went up to a yokomo cgm after it. I have a nitro TC3 as well, but Im new to nitro stuff so Im still tuning it and dont know how well it drifts. Ive been told they are very loose in the rear and great drifters as well. Just find the best deal on either one and you'll be happy

I don't rate the quality of a TC3 with a TT01, the TC3 is tight as a drum, minimal slop anywhere (I hate sloppy wishbones/balljoints etc.), my experience of Tamiya kits (a lot) is nice out of the box but doesn't last long
