now im curious can u give me a link to the place where u saw this i need to know because i work at a hobby shop
Thanks in advance
I asked Team Associated about what is the difference between the two kits. They said that the #2035 is the newer kit with the updated version 2-rear suspension. So the only difference between the two kits is the new rear suspension.

I vote NTC3+.

Isn't the TC4 electric only, or is there a Nitro version?

One of the fastest NTC3s... Here it is before I completely strip it down and upgrade it. My other NTC3 is in pieces right now, it has retired from the A-main and is going to be completely outlaw. The one in the pic is going to be for the A-main. Just waiting for the parts.

Hey guys. I took the engine out of my ntc3 plus to clean it up and have some questions about the two speed transmission. If I spin the larger gear with my finger it drives the wheels, however if I spin the smaller gear it just spins freely. Is this correct. Is the smaller gear the high speed gear? I thought it would be the other way around. Also how many turns out should I turn the screws to get the car to shift. i think I may have lost track of how many turns out they are so can you simply turn them back in till they are tuight then turn them 3 to four turns out. Will the screws bottom out or can you ruin the springs?

You can buy tires from RC Mart. Jacos foam tires goes for about $7.10 and Ellegi foam tires for $7.20.

The smaller gear is the high speed gear. It is suppose to spin freely. It will engage once the engine spins the transmission fast enough. I turned the screws a half turn out from factory settings. It shifts really early because I drive on a small track. Since you lost track of how many turns the screws are, you can turn them all the way in and then back out. Don't over tighten them though because you can ruin the springs.

Isn't the shipping price for RC Mart expensive?

How far in do you turn them then, just until they stop?

Yes, well it may not stop completely. But it you really only need to turn it till it requires significant pressure. Use a small driver to resist the temptation to ham-fist. That way you can only use your fingertips.

Hey does anyone know about how long one full tank of fuel should last in a Nitro TC3+ with the stock AE .15 engine? The one I have is my first nitro vehicle and I got it so it starts on the 3rd or 4th pull and it runs through a whole tank of 20% nitro fuel in about 5 minutes with me just revving it up. I'm not driving it yet because it's too cold up here in MN. I think it may be running a little rich. But I can rev it up pretty good and then just let off the throttle completely and it comes right down to a really nice idle and just stays there. It's really smooth.
