Yes, nice! I’ve not ventured much beyond the retro buggies and the GF01 chassis but the TT-02 is always tempting and the new Evo body certainly looks great.

I was considering doing the exact same thing: TT02SR Evo V road rally. Do you know if the Evo V is going to be available as a separate body set? I'd only seen it mentioned as the TT02 kit so far.

Luckily my two daughters would like a TT02 each for Christmas so I've ordered two Lancer kits and two other bodies for them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Might make a start on the chassis next week or so. I still need to finish my XV-02 as well, but life is busy at the moment... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nick-W 1494 Posted September 27, 2022 The turnbuckles for the DT-03 turned up today along with a new pinion. Some harder oil on the way too after reading up on the @ThunderDragonCy build thread from a while back. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick-W 1494 Posted September 28, 2022 Delivery arrived early this morning with the oil to experiment with on the DT-03 and some bits for my TD2 build. No idea about the quality of the oil but they both definitely look thicker in the bottle. I’m off work today so I’ll have time for messing about. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tamiyastef 1967 Posted September 29, 2022 Not the Postman, got it myself from my LHS For my TA03F budget rally build And finally these (were on backorder for a while...) Love these, just an undertray missing for my Mid and then I can start my Ultima/turbo Optima/Optima Mid combined build. But boy they were even more expensive than I expected. I paid more for these than I paid a few months back for my TA03RS Porsche GT1 Street kit. Got myself a duo charger that was on sale to compensate 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I completed a TT-02 rally build this year and it ended up not being so "budget" 😅 but it drives absolutely awesome. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm aiming for awesome but still hoping for 'budget'. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edit: But to explain why I use a Killerbody body is that at least here in Germany body sets from Tamiya have become really expensive or are not available. And if I buy the parts (body, spoiler, mirrors, stickers) separately I will easily reach 70€. And that makes no sense to me when I can get a kit for 75€.
