Second prototype of my TA06 gear diff transmission case the rear motor TRF201X and DN01. It uses all the kit parts but replaces the ball diff with the TA06 gear diff. I got some spacings wrong on the left hand case due to using the wrong reference plane, but i have another version coming from Shapeways which will hopefully sort it. Even now it is tight, but fits with no modifications which is what i hoped. I'll put it on my CTE RC Shapeways store once i have completely sorted it. No more melty ball diffs!

After getting tired of bashing over the last 25 years, I think I might be ready to get into racing. Though I'm not 100% certain which chassis I should start out with. I have a classic TA02 (IMSA 300zx) and is probably suited for my skill level. However it is a very expensive kit. $850 AUD on ebay. So I really don't want to break it. So I recently bought a new TA06. Though its potential is probably WAY above my skill level. So I have been advised by 1 person so far to run the TA02 (Though I'm still concerned about breaking it) So which would be best to learn on? I also picked up a TRF414 for when my skills improve (and is a classic that I don't want to break), so that probably wont be driving that for a very long time. From what I've been told about my local track is that I am restricted to Yokomo/Awesomatix/XRAY/Mugen/VBC chassis if I want to race. Plus I'll need to buy a new radio (40MHz FM isn't allowed), new brushless motor, esc, approved batteries and bodies etc. It kind of sucks that Tamiya isn't allowed - or any of my old existing stuff for that matter. Is that unusual? :/ Thoughts?
