The Candycane Racer is Back !!

For the last Year and a bit my TT-01 sat on the Shelf, not being used as I had broken a few parts and chipped a few teeth on the pinion.

So I got off my Lazy rear end and rebuilt it... and I am Glad I did!!!

I had forgotten just how much fun a TT-01 is..

I have used the HPI EN1 ESC from my now binned E10 and have used the Reciever and Radio gear aswell.
I am using the Radial Tyres that are off the E10 Touring and I am using a Tamiya TZ motor on the 19T/61T Gearing..
I am using the friction Shocks of a HBX Lancer and all in all... it handles pretty good... nice turn in and seems to cope with the Bumps rather well..

Although the TT-01 doesn't handle any where near as good as my Cyclone S.... I dont have to bother about Stones getting into the gearing !
There is just something about a TT-01 that just makes it Soo fun to drive...

I have a Full Ball bearing kit and Alloy propshaft (Seems to be the minimum Standard these days for a TT-01) so the Power from the TZ motor doesn't get lost in propshaft flex and from a Stand Still all you can hear is the tyres struggling for Grip and off it goes.. It seems to accelerate faster then my Cyclone S but that could be just a feeling more then a fact..


So If there are any TT-01 owners out there wondering what motor to wack in their TT-01, Go for a Tamiya TZ or RZ and just have some Fun !!!

Looks good.....cut those body posts down!

magnat

Nah cutting the Body posts restricts my shell options.... and I have over 15 Shells for my TT-01 and some require nearly the Whole Body post to fit..

SIRCC

what shell might those be, i have 3 shells and i cut my post they work fine.

Cant believe you left it on the shelf for so long lol shame on u
I get the same with my posts my cossie needs longer posts than my 350z and skyline shells []

magnat

Yes the Cossie Shell requires alot as it is a Hatch...



And my Escalade Requires full body posts PLUS extensions..

NOW I see why you always want all my pics, LOL. Having as many shells as you have I'm sure you're excited to see how mine ends up.

magnat

macscac

magnat

Wish Granted ( This is from 2006)



There is 18 of them with another in storage

2 of the Skylines you see there (Bottom shelf) were sold off

I'm gonna be sad to say good bye to a few of my red alloy parts. I can't use them with the graphite chassis. The red motor mount and red battery heat sink were the two biggest. But I also have to say goodbye to the alloy battery posts (blue). I also have to decide which upper frame I want to keep, the graphite or the carbon.

Oh god, and I thought my room is a mess! (I have a big wall for all my rc crap, in boxes! lol)

Jeez, you can always donate some to the fellow drifter learner ^.^

jp2_we_love_you

Do you really want him to pay the shipping for those things to get here from Australia?????

My Feedback: (1)

Oops! My bad, didn't see you were in australia... You know, I can always pay the shipping

jp2_we_love_you

LOL. I would pay it too. But I'm happy with my one body.

My Feedback: (1)

Same, but you can never have to many, just ask magnat!

I currently have a Ferrari Enzo body (my incredibly MESSED up body, that I use when my friends come over to drive.. I could practically care less about it )
Then I have my RX7, which I bought, and I LOVE it. (Only I, and people I know, are great RC drivers).
