By the way, I loved my Mamba so much, I had to put them is all of my electrics. I have one 5700 and two 7700s.

Very nice collection. I'm more into monster trucks though.
Do you have any 7700's in any MT's?

They are CS Take Off Series and they are very sticky. They work well on regullar pavement. Haven't tried them at the track but I can't seem to slide them. Super sticky.


Hey, how's my TC4 brother?
Take care medrifast

Where did you get the tires at? Hobby people in Encino?

How does your TT-01 hold up with the Mamba. I've been debating wheater or not to put mine in, but I would need to get a new motor because the pinion on my 4600 motor is jammed on and it's perfect gearing for my rustler.

If you ever get a different BL motor can I have a mamba :p

Hawt collection, ditto seths question.

Thanks for all the compliments guys.

To answer your question, the team TC4 handles very smoothly because I think they are both ball diff. The difference is in the strength and rigidity. In high top speeds and on turns, the Team TC4(graphite) tends to sway a little bit and oversteer a tad but still sooooooooooooooooooo much fun.

The Factory Team(carbon fiber) is precise, controllable, and can handle hard turns and high speeds with ease. They are both awesome but the Factory team is carbon fiber and has an upper carbron fiber brace with sway bars so the car is better set up. O yea, the Factory Team also has an expensive Airtronics Titanium lightweight hi torque servo too so turning is more precise off the bat.

TT-01 question: SO far, I'm trying to blow the diffs just to test this Tamiya and it handles SURPRISINGLY EXCELLENT. It's a little sloppy and loose in turns but the top speed, whoa. THe friction shocks do well absorbing road junk and the car is really amazing. The power transfers well to the tires. With a fully pack of 8 cells, I floor it from a start and the car launches but it does peel out and drift a bit. With sticky rubbers on, the car power slides well and goes in a striaght line amazingly well.

So, in answer to your question, the Mamba and TT-01 go together well. My friend is going to lend me his 3 cell lipo so I will try it on Wednesday. I will post results but it should literally SPANK both of my Associated TC4s in a straight line if of course it can handle the power.

TC4 Factory and Factory Team= 7700 Mambas(2 cell lipo or 8 cells max)
TT-01=5400 Mamba(3 cell lipo of 12 cells max baby!!!)

I guess I'll have to get a 5700 motor sometime for my tt-01. I already run li-po so that shouldn't be a problem.

Yeah, but it gets annoying esp. when multiple people do it. I usually edit the image tags so the pictures don't show up in the quote.
