TMaxxDave's Tamiya TB-01

Hey all, just thought i'd post a few pics up of my TB-01

 

I've had this from new in 2001, it started life with Focus shell, and has had many others over the years, as you can see its currently rocking an Impreza shell which i got in 2000 on other car, a prebuilt rtr one. when that died, i stole the shell for this.

 

Its running a couple of mods, nothing too serious.

 

Alloy front shocks

Alloy prop

Alloy motor mount

Alloy front wishbone mount

Team Mtroniks 11x2

Viper RV11 ESC Forwards and Reverse

Reflex Wheels Pro 2 Reciever 2.4ghz

Deans battery connectors as i melted the tamiya one

 

I'll get some better pics later, i've never really taken pics of my RC cars.

Tamiya did a set of alloy steering arms to replace the plastic ones and the step screws on the chassis, gets rid of the excess play. Search for TG10 steering, the nitro car the TB was based on.

The long arm kit is the same width as stock, it just moves the pivot point for the outer hubs further out, allowing the suspension to work better. It came as stock on the TB-Evo kit for racing. Hard to find, costs between

I have a thing for rally cars, and I may as well have a good chassis for them.

I also have an HPI RS4 Rally with a Focus and Scooby shell, two Mini's, a WRC Fabia on an M03, a Metro 6R4 and a 97 Scooby on TA03's, a Bowler Wildcat to go on another TB01 once I get a few more parts.

My wife keeps counting them and tutting when she finds a new one.
