now that tamiya has a new Fwd chassis, i hope they wil put some old bodys on it. I would love a peugeot 306 maxi, honda accord PIAA and a nissan primera calsonic.
And if tamiya would bring out the TA03F and FF01, that would be great.- 3

On some of the older trf cars indeed. But if i am correct these balls are smaller then the normal 5mm balls. These arms are used on several modells and on some the stabilizers are mounted on normal 5 mm ball mounts

What annoys me the most...
Is that Tamiya stopt making F1 cars. I had the most fun at my track racing the F103 and F104W GP. But Tamiya seems to have abandoned the F1 model. So now i drive a Xray. But ik would love a new Tamiya F1 (F105?)

The biggest letdown for me was the TT01 and later the TT02. I have had a manta ray, TA02, FF01, FF02, TA03 before 1 bought my first TT01. As others have mentioned, it is al plastic in plastic. I was so disapointed that after the build i put it up for sale . Fortunaly i didn't sell it and started racing is at my local track. and after the TT01 i switched to the TT02. And i am stil racing it. I actualy love the chassis now. Although i wish that a future TT03 would be more like a TA03. A little bit more metal en decent C-hubs.

did you build both diffs already? if not, then the 2 gb2 gears can be in the unused diff house GB1.
-
make a photo of all the gears you have on your desk.

GB2 come loose in the gear bag. G2 gears come from the spreu in that bag. I don't think you have used them in the diff. It won't close because it is thicker. Did you build both diffs al ready? If not, then the two GB2 gears should be somewhere on your desk.

That is indeed the wrong gear. This is G2 from the diff

I race my TT02 at the local track. And after a complete rebuild i went back to the track to test the car. It drove terrible. So, back to the pits. I couldn't figure out what was wrong with the car. Suspension was ok, everything moved smooth. So i just sat there looking at the car, when i turned the rear wheel. D*mn, both wheels turn. I put the spool in the rear and the gear diff in the front. ....
After fixing that (and in the process dropping a screw on the floor, which never was found again.) went back to the track. put the car down. And it drove...... backwards......
AArgh, both diffs were put in the wrong way . ....fixed that to and then went for a nice cup of tea.

The last 15 years i have been racing in 13,5 stock class, Formula 1 and lately the fwd class. All with high end chassis. And also high end costs. But the fun is missing for some time now. The people racing in those classes are extreme fanatic. Only the latest batterys, motors, bodys are good enough. I recently pickup racing my TT02 again. With a simpel carson cupmachine brushed motor and real car bodys. And i am having great fun again. Yes it is slow en yes the car isn't the best chassis on the market. But i really enjoy riding again.
