out of the box the e10 is a better drifter. id onli get it if you dont want to upgrade it tho. alot of people are having problems putting more power to it b/c the driveline kant handle it. so im converting it to rally.

If you're going to put ABS/PVC tires on, then there really isn't much of a difference between them performance wise. Both have oil shocks, plastic shaft drive (only TT-01 is upgradeable to aluminum), and I believe both have ball bearings. I know the tt-01d does

yes i am going to put PVC on them, and i plan on getting very into electric drifting, and if they are so similar, i think ill go with the TT-01 the E10 looks cheap for some reason to me, but its probably only the body??

and the TT-01 has head/tail lights

go with the tt01 since there are so many hop ups and support for it. the e10 is a new chassis and still has many kinks it needs to fix.

I would say go with the TT-01 buddy. and i highly agree with DriftProjectR. they are not gonna stop making TT-01 parts anytime soon . but the e-10 has problems to be fixed. they may make a re-release of it or something with the problems fixed but who knows. for now i say TT-01:);)

Definately TT-01.. I am at wits end with my E10 and may send it off a 120ft water fall soon...

From what I remember, people used to say the samething with the TT01. Nowadays, I see 7.5s in tt01s. So im sure HPI or people will figure out ways to make the E10 perform to its fullest. Just give it time. :D ;)

a couple of must have upgrades for that car are the aluminum motor mount and shaft and ball bearings. makes the car a lot smoother.

I just built my brothers TT-01 last nite and had all stock running gear apart from pvc tires and it drifted surprisingly well for out the box even with unlocked diffs:)

enjoy your TT-01 keepontruckin;)
