Starting my dream TRF fleet

Recommended Posts

Since i returned do hobby i've started acquiring some bits and chassis to rebuild.

So first in line is TRF201 build from bits :D

Some parts are in post and some are waiting to be acquired later this month, but i couldn't resist assembling what i had on hand allready :)

And those parts were most difficult to track down

and this is state of chassis for now

Are you uk based? I’ve had delays with loads of bits and letters recently seems constant at the moment. Looking forward to the updates. Have one of these myself, great motors. Sean

I'm from Poland, but i've ordered chassis tub in UK :)

My local supplier wont have any tubs until around mid aprill, and i'm hopping i can enter competition at the mid aprill with this car :P

The TRF201 XR Chassis Conversion Kit could have been an alternative. Quite expensive but looks great with the aluminum chassis… 😉

Are you planning to use the original body of the TRF201 or an alternative one which also fits on the chassis (Sand Viper, Desert Gator,…)?

I'm planning on using Sand Viper body, as sand viper was one of my first tamiya rc model that i went racing with. Later i switched to Losi xxx-cr which has simmilar body shape and i quite like it :)

As for 201 XR chassis conversion... this needs to wait for my birthday :P i hope there will be one aviable at that time :/
