Tamiya TT02 RC car Youtuber race

Is this the biggest RC race of the year ... the KZbin showdown!
In this video, RC KZbinrs from around the UK come together to race Tamiya TT02 stock RC cars but who will win.
The current KZbinr king of the buggy is ‪@KevinTalbotTV‬ but can ‪@TomleyRC‬ get the better of him this time. Will we see ‪@noahsrcs1808‬ and ‪@RCKickschannel‬ be more competitive when we all have the same cars.
How will we do against the pre race favorite ‪@Vinnyschannel‬
We are made our way to Cambridge RC Circuit Car Club: / crcccc
Let the battle commence

[@KevinTalbotTV]

[@mad-beerc3818]

First learn to roll a carpet Phil then you can take on those popalong lads! Just kidding😉

[@PopalongRC]

That is what we are all about

[@PopalongRC]

Hahaha

[@TomleyRC]

@@mad-beerc3818I prefer to fold carpet 😅

[@mrclairesrcs3290]

Was a great day. Lots more practice needed for me 😂

[@PopalongRC]

We have some questions about your marshalling technique

[@meanrhythm9048]

Ah, what a perfect way to ease the Monday Morning blues. Round of applause to all of you. This vid will really help many new and born-again hobbyists as it proves that when you level the field? Anything is possible. The , 'What? You don't know what Beatties was!' bit had me in stitches. Like walking into the best sweetshop ever...but better .....wasn't it? Great vid. Thank you to all involved.

[@PopalongRC]

Cheers buddy Thanks for you kind words

[@The70s_child]

Quality vid!! Talbot looking like a 6 year old kid desperate to find the back door to sneak out of 😂

[@OleSprky]

These races look like a hoot to be a part of.

[@PopalongRC]

We look forward to the next one

[@Mrtrc33]

Shocking kev didn't know beaties . I've still got my bag from 87 . I'm 51 Cracking video chaps 👌

[@PopalongRC]

Cheers buddy We are still in shock

[@daledavis8093]

These KZbin races are so awesome to watch

[@PopalongRC]

Cheers dale we enjoy making them too

[@alwaysbelievechrist4688]

These are the best class of club racing and always brings the characters in the community, The Tamiya mo-3 mini and F1 is my personal favourite

[@alybroom]

Great video. Was an awesome day out. Got me thinking about starting back up……

[@PopalongRC]

Do it ….

[@Pablo668]

LOL at Phil at the end. Looks like a great time was had by all.

[@TomleyRC]

😅

[@SpeccyMan]

Looks like everyone had a good day. Congrats on 2nd and 3rd place. I'd call that a good result, given the competition. 👍

[@PopalongRC]

We are Happy it was a tight race

[@alexjohnson2088]

And vinny's been there before😅

[@bluegroovemodelsports9650]

Great video. Great podium showing for the Popalong Racing Team.

[@PopalongRC]

Cheers Blue I think it is a fair result ..

[@paulsnape1995]

Good fun mornings racing. Great video and nice to have met you both. Keep up the good work.(sorry to have bored you with half my life story)

[@PopalongRC]

We love meeting racers and visiting clubs See you trackside soon

[@jasonkessinger8062]

Cool concept but I would love to see the actual races not just clips of driving.....

[@PopalongRC]

unfortunately it was more demolition derby than racing ... Tomley put out the whole race last time.

[@stevegolds2551]

Great result guys 👏 really enjoy seeing all you chaps together

[@PopalongRC]

Cheers Steve Already looking forward to the next one

[@andrewmagro7703]

Wow Beatties now there a Model shop that cant be forgotten , thanks for the show guys and it was a definite blast to watch way to go Vinny and Mark and John - Popalong Sannga i love it

[@PopalongRC]

Cheers MagRC

[@SteveDavies-wv2mv]

Great video lads, nice to see different racing classes, in a recent conversation with Marc I chatted about my recent experience in racing oval ministox and it was something I never thought I could get excited about as my first interest in RC started mid 80's when tamiya off road cars were the most popular. In reality I now realise that all classes are absolutely enjoyable, probably more so when everyone is pretty much running the same spec, that is when driving skill prevails. Well done on your 2nd and 3rd.

[@PopalongRC]

Cheers Steve, I’ve always said as long as the racing is close it is fun …

[@lancephelps4871]

Thank you for getting the gang all together. It was a blast to watch. I have a TT02 kit still new in the box. I have never built a RC kit before. One day when I build up the guts to open and build this kit maybe I can have as much fun as you all did! Thanks again, Lance

[@PopalongRC]

You gotta be in it to win it …

[@rcfools]

Great video guys. I'm definitely enjoying the KZbinr races.

[@PopalongRC]

Hopefully more to come …

[@SanteeRC]

Congratulations to the Popalong Team for their well earned Second and Third place finishes.

Cheers Santee

[@PopalongRC]

Cheers Scott See you trackside soon

[@michaeldorich4485]

You two did very well, congratulations. I enjoyed your video. It appeared Kevin was running a different body was it just the rear wing? This was a great idea.

[@PopalongRC]

Thank you for commenting. He was running a porsche shell with rear wing versus our Audi shells without...

[@neilpawlyk9457]

Looked like a great time! I like at the 8:08 mark when you see the dog-bone fly out. Typical stock TT02 racing right there!

[@PopalongRC]

There were dog bones all over the place

[@theRCcarshow]

nice to see all of you guys in a race track. nice bonding. liked and subscribed

[@PopalongRC]

Cheers buddy👍👍

[@tm5123]

6:54 I had a good laugh when the guts fell out of one car. :D Anyway, this was top content from my view, so much fun seeing the youtubers race with the same cars. Was Kev running the TT-02 as a Porsche, that might be a bit of an oddity as it has shorter wheelbase than the rest, which might actually make it a more of a handful on some tracks. Looked like lots of people could have dropped their steering rate quite a bit.

[@PopalongRC]

Same chassis length just different shell. We all had such a laugh

[@websitesthatneedanem]

Was that the tracker device?

[@tm5123]

@@websitesthatneedanem I would assume its the lapcounter transponder yes, dunno what else could fall of and the car still work. Only other thing in that size range would be a gyro 😆

We had a smashing time … hahaha

[@k1ortia]

That's mad you just mentioned Beaties .it used to be a massive model shop opposite Cardiff castle. And had everything in there you could imagine.. fooking loved that shop. That was in 97.

[@traxxasfans]

They were an amazing shop I got my first Tamiya Subaru Brat from Beeties in Nottingham from way back in the day the had an amazing shop in Manchester as well

[@PopalongRC]

I was wondering whether it was a regional thing but they were nationwide ..

[@paulwilkinson4501]

What is Beatties? 🤯 jeeeez mind blown guys 🤪

[@PopalongRC]

Still in shock

Brilliant work guys and girls 💯 would love to see a youtubers 🏁 race with mardave or kamtec minis indoor👍 or an outdoor truck race 1 electric and 1 nitro race 💯 keep up the great content from.james 👍

More races planned for the future

[@mark-1rc502]

Blimey 😮 Talbot Not talking that’s a new one 😂

[@PopalongRC]

Yeah Beatties killed the conversation

[@Andy_Yates]

Looks like this was great fun! Glad to see some of the friendly trash talk and you all seemed to have a good time with it. Racing is a ton of fun, even racing in novice. There are a couple tracks near me with friendly atmospheres and good people. Seeing your racing footage helps keep the excitement going for the next time I can make it to the track. Also just returned (to the states) from a lovely visit to London, Edinburgh and Islay. My first time across the pond and I had an amazing time. Beautiful sites, good food, great pubs & people, and so much history 🍻

[@PopalongRC]

Speaking of History … have you heard of Beatties ????

[@Andy_Yates]

@@PopalongRC I had not, but I grew up in California so I don't know if those existed on the west coast of the US. I'm early 40s so we had the local shops and my friend had a tower hobbies catalog that we spent hours looking through

Well done guys great show. ❤

@@PopalongRC we had one in Romford and it was literally every boys dream. Floor to ceiling with model railways, Scalextric and Tamiya kits. No shopping visit to town was complete without a trip to Beaties even though you knew it would be a long wait till birthday or Christmas to have the chance of a new kit and the latest Acoms. 😂

I did for a while in the 90's and early 2000 . Unfortunately I'm my state rc tracks have all shut down and disappeared. Still love the hobby but other than bashing around I haven't raced in years

[@PopalongRC]

That is a shame .. get yourself some cones and a couple of mates with the same car and you can have some mega battles

Next race should be with Mardave bangers.
