jimmer7 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Hi been looking at getting a rally car, for me and my boy to build , we have been looking at the tt 02r and the xv 01,, I read that they both need bearing kits and the tt 02 needs metal.prop, what else would you advise to hop up during the 1st build. Also out of the 2 which would be a better for a bit of rallying through local woods It will be using 2c lipos if that makes any difference.

KarlP Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Out of the two id go for the XV-01 i love mine and it handles like a dream but it can be a bit of a pain getting some brands of lipo into the battery tray as it loads from underneath the car and depending where the leads come out of your battery it can be a bit of a tight fit but thats the only downside i've found for it so far, as for hop ups a lot of people seem to replace the stock shock towers as they are a "weak" point although i have not broke the stock ones yet, i'll pm you a good build thread on the XV-01 so you can have a read and see what you think.

KarlP Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 http://www.yeahracing.com/catalog/tamiya-xv01-c-29_55_346.html http://www.asiatees.com/article?Upcoming-GPM-aftermarket-parts-for-Tamiya---XV-01-PRO!%3F&id=173 Are some you can get, also they are releasing the XV-01 as a Touring Car so i expect some more will start to turn up, Tamiya also do various amounts of shiny stuff for it or grab the Pro kit and it comes with a fair few shiny things.
