What is the budget? What charger do you have currently? Do you want to go Lipo? What ESC is in the lunchbox?

Its the original (although not an early one as it has the better Traxxas EVX2 esc) 3906 EMaxx

Dont know why, but I GENUINELY enjoyed building a TT01E. I know its basic, but it felt a lot better than a TT02? Anyway, also a brilliant brilliant bodyshell IMO. I know this is a dirty ReRe, but this looks straight out of the Tamiya Catalogue I used to buy from Beatties as a lad! Now onto the Porsche GT1…

Took some Traxxas’ out for the first time this year. The Defender is insanely capable! With his Big Brother

Finished the TT01E for the Audi A4. Nothing special. Im thinking of running my Top Force Evo as 4WD is just better than 2WD IMO. Just going to use these electrics I have on hand.

Its Friday. Had a tough week at work so cracked open the A4 TT01E and a beer. Bizarrely, Im enjoying the TT-01E build a lot more than the usual TT02? I just wish Id picked up a bearing kit and some oil shocks before I started but to be fair its only a shelfer.

Ive been very quiet on the RC front. A genuine bit of RC fatigue, Ive not even been interested in catching up on forums or RC Youtubers, Traxxas have released a new Maxx Slash which is right up my street yet I havent pulled the trigger and I am unlikely too. Truth is, Id picked up most of the RCs I wanted (the Tamiya R34s, NSX, Supra and various Porsches) and I kinda felt Ive achieved everything with my RCs…. However, I had an Audi A4 on order at my local modelshop, and last week I did my usual eBay searches and made a purchase. Must be a sign as today as I was leaving for work, I got a parcelforce notification a parcel was out for delivery, and on my lunch break, I got a text saying my A4 was in at my local modelshop. So a double RC Day. Also picked up some paint etc Audi A4 TT-01E. Such an iconic shell IMO. Obviously a rere but itll be built as a shelfer so no problems. Now this is also a rere. I missed out on the original ReRe run, so had to pay over RRP, but I still got this for sub £200 all in which I think is acceptable. Its also on a TA03RS, quite a rare chassis that Ive never actually built. Of Course its the Porsche 911 GT1 Street. I do wonder if I could obtain some “race version” decals?

Soooo a Hoss?

Looks well. Glad its still going!

Looking at the info I have those pics are 2007, but I mustve been going there with other RCs when I was younger as I could drive myself in 2007. Good times. I used to always go Bekra RC in Newton Abbot and AMC in Torquay before it moved. I also raced touring cars at a track in Kingskerswell thats maybe not there anymore

I think this is the same place but lots of years ago

Is that ‘the’ Slash 4x4 I think it is?

Thats it! Honestly I nearly teared up seeing you post that. Such happy memories going there what must be 20+ years ago!
