Thank you! Thanks for watching 👍

[@AddamsPlayground]

Looks good after the rebuild and upgrades!

[@powersmodelgarage]

Thank you. I am pretty happy with how it came out. The stiffer chassis will be nice too.

[@All_RC_Fun]

That did take some crazy tumbles. Looks great after the rebuild. Hopups really make it pop.

[@powersmodelgarage]

Thank you. It sure did. It’s worth it though. Logan and I had a great time with it. 👍

[@slashraptor9317]

Remember order up some kimbrough spurs they are rated for high gearing temps but make sure you get the ones for the slipper eliminator

[@powersmodelgarage]

I ordered one that just came in. It’s not what I put in the car for the video though. Saving it for when we try to go faster. 👍

[@LunchMoneyRC-up7yv]

Great work mate. What size tyres are you running?

[@powersmodelgarage]

Thank you. They are 26mm front and 30mm rear

I dont use aluminum arms but everything else looks good.

[@powersmodelgarage]

@@DPoner the plastic are more forgiving for sure but wanted the bling 🤷‍♂️😀

I don’t usually hear or see TT02 spur gears melting. Even at 80 which isn’t crazy fast. I’m sorry but I didn’t notice…are you using the aluminum motor mount? It looks like you are not. You could try adding the aluminum mount (holds up against heat and distortion) and add a 40mm cooling fan over your motor.

[@powersmodelgarage]

It is a Yeah Racing adjustable aluminum motor mount. I was using really small and cheap spurs. I have purchased much higher quality ones now. That should help. I do need to add the motor fan. It gets pretty hot.

[@aut0bahn]

@@powersmodelgarage I’ve heard the adjustable motor mounts on the TT02 can slip. Effecting the mesh. I have used the Tamiya ones which are great but you can’t go higher than 29T on the pinion I believe and that’s using the 62 or 63T spur. Good luck.

Wot shaft and dog bones do you use are you runin standerd diff for front and rear

[@powersmodelgarage]

I replaced the dog bones with Yeah Racing Universals. The diffs are stock packed with thick marine grease.

Починил чтоб снова сломать😀Ездить чтоб сломать😀😂

[@powersmodelgarage]

😀 So true. Gonna go faster until it breaks so bad I cannot fix it 👍

[@МАРМОНРАМЗЭСОВИЧ]

@@powersmodelgarage 👍😀☀️

[@illegalLettuce]

Sorry.. complete utter total noob here doing research... but WHY so much toe in at rear and so much toe out in front? I get a lil toe out up front can help turn the car, but that looked extreme to me. Please educate my dumb ass😂

[@powersmodelgarage]

😂 well it is a bit extreme I admit. For racing around a track, it would be awful I’m sure. The rear helps keep it stable at high speed and the front helps keep it straight with light steering corrections. It seems to make the gyro work a little better. This car really only goes straight fast.

[@illegalLettuce]

@@powersmodelgarage gyro???

[@powersmodelgarage]

@illegalLettuce It has a gyroscope in it to make small adjustments to the steering automatically to keep it going straighter
