description  this was my first Tamiya kit. it was eventaully sold to my brother who turned it into a tarmac only rally chasis. it has the same hop ups as the other TB01 in the showroom, with the addition of the very rare TB01 carbon chassis plates.

since the pinion and spur are exposed....he chose to set this up for onroad use. down travel was restricted by 10mm compared the other TB01, and TRF dampers were used on this chassis.

a long arm kit was also added and seems to really improve both the handling and stability.

a lexan sheild was added after wards to prevent major damage to the carbon deck as it took a year to track down.
