TLR 22x-4 - First Look and Unboxing - 4wd 1/10th Buggy!

[@TheRCNetwork]

Who likes TLR? 🤔What about Yellow vs White wheels? 🤔

[@GreatLakesRC]

I don't know about yellow, but red is definitely faster! 🤣

[@sc10rs]

Love my tlr's !!!!! With white wheels ovecourse!!!!! 😂🤙🇦🇺🍻

[@chevyrc3623]

Yellow is faster with TLR and white wheels are faster with Team Associated for some reason the cars like it that way

[@TheRCNetwork]

I used to think that about AE vs TLR - but when Cavalieri drove for AE he ran yellow wheels.....

[@chevyrc3623]

@@TheRCNetwork different driving style or he thinks yellow just makes him faster lol

[@RazorRC]

Rich unboxing videos are the best, those rolling dolly shots are so smoooth!

[@TheRCNetwork]

Thanks buddy! Oddly, that's just a handheld iPhone with post stabilization 😉

[@RazorRC]

@@TheRCNetwork what? no... nice job! Yellow wheels make TLR's go faster, but make everything go slower IMO.

[@alholland6510]

D bag .... gets me every time 😂

[@TheRCNetwork]

Me too! 😉

[@rogerlid2118]

TLR stands for quality 👍👊

[@TheRCNetwork]

I agree with you! Great stuff so far

[@jokersnyderracing9458]

Changing it up a little i see! Glad to see you making videos, always a blast and I always learn a lot

[@TheRCNetwork]

Thanks JSR! Always cool to see you in the comments!

[@aaronbatchelor5867]

Great video, mine should be arriving this week! Can’t wait!!!

[@TheRCNetwork]

Nice! I'll have a build review up likely on Wednesday/Thursday

[@aaronbatchelor5867]

The RCNetwork are you planning on running the slipper or center diff?

[@New2Kendo]

I wish TRCR was closer to me, I would like to race rc cars again, and I would definatley pickup the 22x-4. TLR has some of the nicest kits, and they include more than most companies. Yellow is Faster no Question

[@TheRCNetwork]

My closest track is about 40 minutes away (with no SoCal traffic), so I hear ya!

[@ChristopheChardon]

ZT knife ? Fancy guy !

[@TheRCNetwork]

I love my ZT's! 😉

[@ReadySetRC]

I don't know if yellow is faster but it is more durable😂 Great video as always👍

[@TheRCNetwork]

I'm tryin to see if Yellow will work with my paint scheme!

[@thews9237]

Add a little bright yellow pinnstriping Rich to your blue and silver.

[@darkhorsegarage9623]

You should start an unboxing by cutting the seal and when you open the lid , have a lightbulb covered with gold tissue paper so everything just glows like the briefcase in pulp fiction

[@TheRCNetwork]

Very true! I've thought about that before!

[@marksapollo]

Oooh let us know if this is easier to build then the equivalent Team X-ray kit. It looks nice and a very comprehensive kit.

[@TheRCNetwork]

My build review will cover everything. Stay tuned!

[@jcchaconjr]

But of course Yellow is faster, duh...🙄 LOL! It's just a more aerodynamic color. Mine should be arriving HOPEFULLY today! I already got the optional parts I had pre-ordered last week.

[@TheRCNetwork]

Nice! Yeah, I ordered the Aluminum horn and waiting for the center diff to become available

[@NordicRC]

Nice. Especially the chassis looks so good. Hmm. I’m not a racer, just a hobbyist, so why are all race buggy wheels yellow or white?

[@TheRCNetwork]

You know, I'm not sure on that one. Originally, I thought it was a rivalry between TLR and AE - TLR being yellow wheels and AE being white wheels. Then I saw Cavalieri (who was running for AE at the time) had yellow wheels and that theory was debunked.

[@NordicRC]

@@TheRCNetwork Ahh. Okay. Thanks a lot for the answer anyway. Just funny that one hardly doesn't see any other colors used. Maybe it increases visability with bright wheels (yellow, white), but I would suspect that red ones etc would be easy to see on the track also.

[@jc51373]

Review the 8ight XTE please!!!!

[@TheRCNetwork]

I've been looking at those!

[@innovativerc7155]

Very Nice unboxing! Always appreciate the effort you put into your videos. Your close-up shots are always outstanding!! Keep up the great work Rich!! 👍👊😎

[@TheRCNetwork]

Thanks buddy! It's always nice to see a good response to the videos - makes all the time worth it!

[@KurtsRCs]

Nice unboxing and yellow is faster 😂👍👍👊👊

[@TheRCNetwork]

it def. looks faster!

[@thecman26]

The best part of a build is when you get to the D bag!

[@TheRCNetwork]

There you go! But it's the shocks....and I always wait to build my shocks till the end

[@Darkslide2AR-FE]

Rich that ZT is looking beautiful, I have a Benchmade MIni Griptilian. Have you checked out the knife brand called Civivi? They are owned by We Knives and make some killer budget oriented knives that range from 50 dollars to 100 dollars

[@TheRCNetwork]

Thanks! I'll have to check them out. WE knives always look good - I think Ben Banter works for them now (from Blade HQ)

[@Darkslide2AR-FE]

@@TheRCNetwork yw, I agree We Knives make some pretty damn nice knives.

[@humblerc841]

i'm interested to see what you think about this vs the tekno.

[@TheRCNetwork]

It looks really good so far. I'm definitely not a Phend, but if it improves my driving by any % it's worth it!

[@f1hotrod527]

Where are TLR kits made?

[@TheRCNetwork]

Likely Taiwan with 90% of the other race kits.

[@f1hotrod527]

@@TheRCNetwork Sweet. Still with they were made in USA, but Taiwan will work. Just as long as it is not made in mainland China.

[@paulgarwood192]

Thanks Rich. Included wheels, yellow is good. White I can buy if I need. I feel like it’s better value for money if they are included, even though it’s probably factored into the pricing. 👍🤓🇦🇺

[@TheRCNetwork]

Yeah, even if the Wheels retail for $15 or so, the actual kit cost is probably in the $3--4 range. I like the fact that they're included, so you don't have to hunt for the right offset, especially on a newly released kit where they say "Yeah, Blah, blah, blah's 4w car offset is perfect, just add a 0.40mm spacer......

[@paulgarwood192]

The RCNetwork the wheels feel like they’re free! As you said $3-4 spent by the company, makes me buy one kit over another. That’s without trying to find the right wheel for the right kit and being limited by what’s in stock etc. Keep well!

[@GreatLakesRC]

Ohh, another 4x4 1/10 buggy 🤩 Could you just run it around your driveway to give us a teaser?

[@TheRCNetwork]

I know, huh? I still have the EB48 2.0, brand newly built, ready for the track!

[@mr.chaos3973]

White is always faster

[@TheRCNetwork]

I usually always run white wheels....and I'm not that fast!

[@smiley37greg]

Shaft drive, finally

[@TheRCNetwork]

I know, huh? Looking forward to this one

[@jees3474]

Second

[@TheRCNetwork]

Thanks for watching!

[@hiromiya3365]

The TLR 22X-4 is too expensive, if the price was $399 would be fare price, if I’m right this kit doesn’t come with titanium turnbuckles..

[@TheRCNetwork]

Considering the amount of aluminum and carbon fiber that's included, the price is on mark with competitors. But yes, it is an ultra premium product and the price reflects. Could they make it $30-50 cheaper, sure, but then we would start to see corners cut and items left out. I can't think of a competing major brand that includes Ti Turnbuckles, btw
