Looks great - whose bodyshell?

Sometimes the simplest obstacles need both brute force AND ignorance 🤣

I bet your youngest still had a cracking day 👍

Looks tough to me!

@Cuiken The rear bumper is just another front bumper mount, I did the usual stanley knife nibbling on the standard suspension parts to give more clearance. I guess you could add the longer length shock ends ? I remembered I added Yeah racing CVD’s, but you need the matching shafts for the opposite end if the CVD - Tamiya ones won’t fit! They give you plenty of much needed steering lock. https://www.clevelandmodels.co.uk/product/tt02-015-yeah-racing-steel-univeral-driveshafts-tamiya-tt-02/ https://www.clevelandmodels.co.uk/product/tt02-017-yeah-racing-steel-front-rear-gearbox-joints-tamiya-tt-02/

Those of a nervous disposition look away now - sand AND saltwater 😳 Still me and my niece enjoyed it even if my grown up daughter said I was a big kid 🤣 I did go in the sea too… RC’bearings will be getting an order 😂

I think the wider world is missing out!

Is that a Traxxas flat bed?

Tomr your videos are always beautifully filmed 👍

Hey @Jack Reacher have you got a how too?

Spec above a standard TT02 is: TT02 main drift (grey) parts Hard tub chassis CVA dampers Chinese tyres RC bearings savox servo LRP reverse runner esc (with a big fat fingers switch soldered on!)

Jennys must be loving you at the minute 😁

What @Kpowell911 said! I took a TT02 and a Traxxas TRX4 out this afternoon, and I left the rallycar in the boot. Anyway heres my silver can Rallycar, complete with highly accurate* £15 Mustang ebay shell, the stickers are hiding the terrible drift stripes, a £200 candidate for sure! Ground clearance with 55mm CVA shocks and rally set up standard hubs isn’t that terrible as seen below:

Lost a wheel too - its in there somewhere -I did make it up there in the end, but not on that go!

Got stuck and went logging 😁

The US sellers are not allowed to send Traxxas across the channel though are they.

One of these (bearings oil shocks reinforced chassis parts), Fastrax rally blocks, a 1060 and bodyshell from Jk https://www.timetunnelmodels.com/live/catalog/tamiya-58584-tt02d-drift-chassis-without-custom-deal-bundle-p-55592.html https://www.modelsport.co.uk/product/fastrax-rally-block-1-10th-off-road-tyres-with-inserts-4-blue-medium-compound-11424 https://www.jk-rc.co.uk/tamiya-subaru-brat-parts/new-genuine-hobbywing-quicrun-wp-1060-waterproof-brushed-electronic-speed-controller-esc-p https://www.jk-rc.co.uk/rc-body/by,product_price Well under £200 including the paint! Might even have enough for one of these? https://www.modelsport.co.uk/product/379582?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI-Kjr8aTL-QIVOBoGAB1EOgn6EAQYASABEgK8T_D_BwE

I still love this, bar the useless low gear it doesn’t need. The bodyshell mounts seem to work, though the front arches could possibly do with opening up, still I like the occasional rubbing noise! Stock tyres and the Injora beadlocks are doing great. The perfect looking Vanquish bumper costs very little though it occasionally stops you pushing upwards on an obstacle if your a dead square head on. I might yet cut 10mm off the chassis rails at the rear to pull the matching rear bumper in. I could flip the mount (which is a front bumper mount), but I’m thinking too much height could cause it to flip backwards? Not felt the need to chuck any extra brass on - but then there is very little weight on the body shell compared to most TRX4. It looks scale enough to me 👍 What might I change? Next time I’d keep the single speed (whose ratio is between the 2 speeds) and keep/add the 45 spur and 9 tooth pinion and go higher than the 550/21T it currently has. Happy on 2S too, I would probally destroy it on 3S, I have tried and I don’t stick the 3S pack in anymore 😇🤣

How you getting on with that new ESC? And whats the track - I’m missing the disco!

Cracking stuff!

You can get a Power HD for a just few quid more than the amazon ones (now they have shot up in price). https://servoshop.co.uk/index.php?pid=HDLF20MG&area=Servo

A fantastic box of bits from @stupar as seen on the sales page 😎

You were robbed 😂 Hats off to spotting the deal of the decade!

You’re not the only one that nipped out before the sun went down 👍
