Note the tire which come with the car are “K” for kit. The “C” is for competition. They look the same but “K” is a lot more expensive

As noted in the title, here is a list of scan RC websites. Feel feee to add to list https://www.racingtama.com out of Jakarta

Wow Glad I did a google search first and found this post. Looked too good to be true…

Yes 😢. Thinking of upgrading to pay for more memory and my own showroom

Calm Sunday drive

Thanks Willy. Turned out better than expected. I wonder how long the hard shell will last if I upgrade the motor 😅

Out to a small RC track. Brought my son and we met up with another family. My son drive his stock TT-02B. I drive the Sponge Bob Square Pants TA-02 and Mini Street Hornet M-05. Bob had drift tires and it was hopeless first time out. Car was not drifting how I imagined. Swapped the green drift wheels with a friends TT-02SR tires and it was night / day. Cheapo US$9 servo with a stock silver can managed a few good laps until the battery drained. Drive was stable but on turns the inside rear wheel would lift due to the weight of the body and high center of gravity. I don’t think there is an anti-roll bar for the TA-02 and I may need stiffer springs in the front to compensate. Overall a joy as I had a small Bluetooth speaker playing Sponge Bob theme song on auto loop. I got hit a few times but the kid grade toy body was designed to withstand abuse from kids. Mini Street Hornet 🐝 did not do as well. Something wrong with the diff, causing it to shimmy left and right. Or it could be the cheap servo saver and I need to use a fixed servo horn.

You forgot the decals on your 1:1 Subie

Back from a week long business trip and seeing lots of great posts. Finally had a chance to cut the shell webbing away from SPSP to make the body fit. Added in electrics, mounted and painted drift wheels. Also have a set of painted street tires as well. Bluetooth speaker mounted to play theme song…. Need to finish the mounting posts and go for a drive outside 😂

Electronics installed. Wheels painted. Added a yellow Bluetooth speaker to play “SpongeBob Theme song. Temporarily used my wife’s hair elastic to hold the battery and speaker in place. Drives well with drift tires. Also have a pair of street tires in matching light green. More photos next weekend. . Stock powertrain with bearings.

Just found this page. Great build!

Found an old parts car and used the rear drive axel. Perfect fit. Body is next

Thanks. I tried a parts car dog bone and it works. It was from a Bush Devil rear drive axel

Yeah I am surprised myself. See below 2 photos which provides additional context on the miss-alignment in both axis’s.

Wire hanger center shaft would not work as the gearboxes are not aligned. Had to pick up a Yeah racing version and now looking for a 60mm + dog bone

Thanks @BuggyGuy and @ThunderDragonCy Looking for a just right size dog bone for my stubby wheelbase

sorry double post

Going for a hat trick?

Fush wheels. Deep dish rear wheels. TT102D chassis. Rear flipped arms. Stiffer spring. Porsche 911 drift?
