That was fun to watch and nothing broke too. Thanks Glenn! Watched it to the end

I Watched to the end Glenn cheers. Great video.

Looks like a lot of fun. I like the track. I watch the video to the end

I watched to the end 👍🏾👍🏾

Hi, I think the best way to improve the car is one change at a time. Changing to many things you won’t know what works and what doesn’t. A pinion and tyre change to start see where that gets you then play with diffs, remember one step at a time will get you where you want to be and you reduce your chance of tripping. Yes I watched to the end

I watched to the end Fun watching you at the track. Looking forward to the tuning.

Built up a tt02b with a sand scorcher body over the last weeks and ive followed your project, all good stuff, Watched to the end :)

Lol! "I WATCHED TO THE END!!!"😄. Hugely entertaining as always and a brilliant first run. Can't wait to see the car go from strength to strength. BRILLIANT!!😃👍

Watched to the end !!! Really enjoyed this video, great driving - I would have taken out at least one ceiling fan !!! Keep up the fun Cheers Ian

Deffo watched to the end, always do. It's great that evenna TT02b can be made to be capable. It would be nice to see indoor tracks like that coming back in the UK too..... Another fab video.

Really enjoyed this series, can't wait to see what happens next. I watched to the end!

This is by far my fav channel now. I just came back from running my stock old top force outside the house, love the way it drives. Turns on a dime. Perfect for a medium/small parking lot. Got a 13,5t stock motor setup on 2s. Just fast enough so I dont crash. Will be running the exact same setup in my evo when its finished=)

Glen, to answer your question on setup: racing is different from drift where you actually want a softer front than the rear. You could use less grease and see if it helps. It’s a cheaper tuning method of seeing how it affects your performance. As for your hop-ups, everything you shown is where you want to go with any TT-02. The Yeah Racing mount is miles better than the Tamiya version because you can run ANY tooth mesh like 48P or 64P whereas with the Tamiya, you’re stuck with 06 Module. You’ll still need to ensure both spur and pinion gears are the same pitch but the YR mount gives you much more options though you will have to ensure that you mesh the gears correctly with a piece of paper. The 68T spur is the same as the one supplied in the TT-02 High Speed Gear Set. Get a few while you can because they’re not the easiest to get hold of when they’re sold out. As for pinions for Tamiya, you can run a 29T pinion in it but 27T is what the TT-02 Type S comes with stock and with just that and the 68T pinion, it goes like stink! Last, I would recommend a radio like the FlySky Noble NB4 or Futaba 3PV because then you get to see your inputs and how they could be affecting your lap times. Plus, you want to mail that main jump and having a radio that allows you to see your inputs will aid in being more consistent. At least that’s what I tell myself now after buying a Noble NB4… Anyway Glen, looking forward to the next installment. I knew you couldn’t really hate the TT-02. EDIT: It should go without saying but take each improvement slowly and one at a time to see if you’re really making an improvement or not.

As your tires are the only thing that touches the track, they are the number one, most important item of your set-up. For me number 2 is gearing. As you found out that track is a high-ratio track. The big jump needed smooth acceleration and maybe ½ to 2/3rd throttle at most. But this is were a sensored ESC is a must. Your driving needs practice. Practice is the number one Hop-Up. Nothing else will make your buggy handle better or lower your lap times faster. Have fun making your car right and making you right for the buggy.

Great video , and I did watch it to the end 👍 . After watching I will go and buy me the TT02B , it preformed pretty good . Thanks Glenn

I’ve watched till the end! I love all of your vids but especially love the tt02b series. Looks like a great track day. Some more improvements to the car and it will be that much more fun to drive.

I run my TT02B on Carpet almost exclusively. (Dual Block K's, 3300kv Hobbywing MAX10) For me running the front toe out greatly improved the turn in. I also run 4 degrees camber front and back. It works fairly well for the track I run on.(Thunder Road RC, MN) You could always try the one way diff from the TT01 to help turn in. Love the content keep up the great work!

Still watching. Doing up my TT-02b, gona go all alloy, 3s and 9t brushless. Got all the parts for my weekend project. Fun buddy.

That looked like a whole lot of fun and glad nothing broke!

One of the many reasons I picked up a TT-02B. They take a licking and keep on ticking. Great video Glenn. I would definitely get at the front gearbox, it seems stickier than normal. I have the Tamiya AntiWear grease in mine and it's super smooth. I found that a decent 20-25KG fast servo made a big difference over a Futaba S148.

For me I like the front with thick fluid 1mil. Center slightly thinner around 3\4 mil. The rear more open 1\2 mil. I like my car to "pull" it's self. You will get several different answers to your question. Every driver likes something that suits their driving style. I watched till the end.

Watched to the end. Great first track day.!

Late to the party, but stayed til the bitter end!. Looking at options for getting into rc building and seriously inspired by what you've done on this TT-02B. Great wee series of videos - really enjoyed watching 👍

I watched to the end. Indoor racing on carpet looks like a blast. I'd like to try it.

Definitely not rubbish! Watched to the end, another great video, absolutely loved watching it do what it was made for. Can't wait to see it and you take it to the next step! Cheers!

I watched to the end. I can’t believe nothing broke. It took some hard hits! Anyway, it looked like you enjoyed yourself. Looking forward to the next instalment 🙂

Don't worry about your driving man, i noticed you had fun, that's the most important factor. I am not the greatest driver but the fun i have is priceless, 👍great channel. keep up the great stuff you got yourself a new follower.

For any carpet track you need carpet tyres, 100%: -For a track like that you need thinner oil up front -less toe in on the rear -slightly higher rear ride height -stand the rear shocks up -try a rear sway bar if you have one Also take the front jump on an angle. At the 16:50 mark of the video you can see the line you should launch the buggy at so you got a straighter line into the first kink. Land the buggy nose first on the downwards face of the landing jump, use the brakes to bring the nose down

Hey mate. I've actually spent a lot of time with my TT02B MS on track, and here is what I have found to work the best. Schumacher Mini Pin tyres. Yellow compound rear and silver front. Use the medium foams all around and stick to the wide 4wd fronts, not the narrow 2wd style. Run 6mm hex adapters front and 5mm rear. Increasing the front track is imperative to getting rid of the understeer. Make sure you get a steering assembly with ball bearings. Yes GPM usually makes crap parts, but their TT02 setup actually works really well. Also lose the servo saver. It is a big deal to get rid of the slop in the steering on a TT02B. Make sure you run toe out on the front. This really helps the car dart fast into the turn. Run a hard spring in the back. This will help the rear get a bit loose and rotate. Medium front springs. Keep the front diff open. You need this as you don't have a centre diff. Keeping it open will allow the outer wheel to rotate at ground speed thus retaining grip. You will lose a bit of straight line traction, but most will still be in the rear. Run a heavy rear diff lube. 50k at least. Use a shorty battery pack. Move it forward. This will balance the front a lot better, especially if your servo is light. When your diff gears start to strip, which WILL happen soon, get the GPM metal gears. Again, one of the very few thungs they offer actually worth a damn. Just be mindful that there might be some burrs to get rid of to fit them on to the shafts. Yes, they are GPM parts after all, but once you get them set properly, they are super smooth and your TT02B driveline is bulletproof. The TT02B is a much stronger runner than many give it credit for. Will itvrun with a 503? No of course not, but a well dialed TT02B will trash a stock Top Force Evo.

Glenn I had been wondering if you are Canadian. Seeing you race at a track in Oshawa confirms it for me. Don't know why I never got around to just asking you. I am a couple of hours West of you in a tiny hamlet named Port Bruce. I love to watch your videos. You have such passion for your hobby. I picked up quite a bit of knowledge watching you and from the comments of your subscribers. I used to race a Falcon in the late 80s and can't help but wonder how it would have done on that carpet track. Thanks for my favourite channel!

I watched to the end. I think you did well on that track Glenn, better than I would have. 😁

Your damned right I watched to the end, it's because of you I now have a plasma edge build going on with all the same hop-ups 🙃

Watched till the end. great video love what your doing with the rc cars, I got my son a TT02 a few years ago and the body has great lines.

That was awesome to see, that’s my go to local rc store/track. Great store. Xtreme rc Oshawa. Well done glen.

Of course i watched the whole thing to the end!

Bit painful, but good show I finished it and look forward to seeing more of this kinda content..

Hey Glenn, before chucking a pile of money towards new radio gear, you might have another look at your servo specs. A narrow, tight, technical track like that requires a fast servo to keep up. I don't believe you need a mega-buck high-end Savox but you'll want to stay clear of the bargain servos - they can be very lazy especially when returning to center. Your servo might be fine but it could be worth a look. Regarding the motor, the car seems plenty fast - maybe adjust the ratio to provide a bit more punch. By the way, I think your approach to learning this track is absolutely spot on. Take it slow and build muscle memory before trying to set any lap records. I watch the whole video and enjoyed it immensely. If you can master the TT-02B on this track, you are going to FLY with a proper race buggy. 👍👍😊

Well done Glenn, give’s us all an insight into how skilled racer’s really are…I know I wouldn’t have done as good job as you did!…blimmin tricky that big one was, thanks for the brilliant video🥰

What a good track loved watching Glenn 👍👍👍😀

I watched to the end. Looks like you had fun and thats the main thing, did way better than I could thats for sure!

Great vid Glenn, watched till the end, really enjoyed mate.

Glenn great video.... enjoyed your Duke's of Hazzard jumps .... and I watched to the end....👍

This is awesome, Glenn. Was great to see your progression throughout the video, and I love the way you rocked it with a Tamiya whilst all the others had fancy race cars. If I had a track like this near where I live I'd be there every weekend. More videos like this showing off the other side of the hobby, 👍🏻...... and I watched til the end.

I watched too the end 👍🏻 Fantastic watch Keep up the excellent work I’m new to the hobby so it’s educational to me 👌🏻

I watched till the end! lol. Better than I expected the chassis design works better for smooth surfaces such as indoor carpet. Could never get my Neo Scorcher was rubbish on a rough dirt track, not enough droop.

I watched to the end 👍😂 really enjoyed the project performance series!

well done glenn, set up is key, do one change at a time,i used to run 2 wd and 4wd buggy, both were associated, have not run indoor off road in a few years now, been running outdoor off road for 5 years now, normally race at ottervill and barnyard for out door, also been running on road on the black crc carpet at rc Niagara indoor, be going this sunday for the last race of the year at rc Niagara indoor.

That's a cool little carpet track.

Awesome, bit late but watched to the end. Great to see how it turned out, Its given me something to think about on my Plasma Edge. Good work Glen.

Had a pro give me a car control tip. To not look at your car while driving but just ahead of it. Took a lot of getting used to but improved my driving on the track to another level.

The track has such short straights and so twisty I bet a standard silver can is enough

Watched to the end. And I would say it's a success as well👍

I watched to the end 😉 I really enjoy your channel and content 👍🏻. Don’t be so hard on yourself - the track experience was really interesting and showed a different side of RC driving that I’m not familiar with - my boys & I use our lunchboxes & pumpkin down the beach through the dunes. It was interesting to highlight a different skill set - beyond having a souped 4x4 RC car and giving it some beans! You got some great lines on the course - glad you got to land a couple on the big jump! Really good stuff 👍🏻🙂

Looks like you had a blast so you did it right , that’s all that matters.

Made it till the end!😉.. was another good vid., I can imagine that getting the car straight in line for the jump under the pilot's podium isn't easy.. looking forward for some more track action👍🏁

Watched to the end! Stick some carpet tyres on and a high speed servo and get out there again. Keep up the good work.

I watched to the end, nice video and Greetings from Belgium 😉👍

Different tires would have helped for sure. Getting the throttle right for each jump is definitely challenging, especially the first time out to a track like this. I think you and the car both did absolutely amazing!!! I hope nobody ever feels embarrassed or like they didn’t do well enough to be at the track. Great job mate!! And the Tamiya did good as well.

Great vid Glenn. Heavier diff lube at both ends to help prevent wheel-spin, fast brushless servo, lower gearing, tyres, radio...current setup is a good start...I raced indoor & outdoor, but not tight & technical like that...I'd probably break things after couple of laps. The TT02 stood up well, & still looks shmick! I think speed runs with the car wouldn't need much change to reach 70! Another great video...much appreciated.

Glad you going to do a bit of speed running. TT02B is a great platform for it. You should get Stew Mac on as a guest to help beginners start out. Yes I watched to the end!

Always to the end Glenn, He He and thanks for spoiling us with another awesome video , just superb so different and yes that TT02b looked agreat getting around and getting the jumps right seems really challenging , fun and excitement no doubt thanks for sharing a great day at the track bud and for the speed runs that will be just awesome and will be interesting to see the speeds achieved , beauty thanks again Glenn.

I watched till the end Great video.great project 👍😃

Made it to the end! Nice buggy

Hi Glenn. Good morning to you. I have thoroughly enjoyed this series of videos on the TAMIYA TT02B. Yes, I watched them all to the end. 😂 Keep you up with your excellent content 👍🏻 I have just subscribed to your channel.

I watched to the end 😀, awesome project, can't wait for the speed runs!

Watched till the end,excellent!

Fantastic video mate, your confidence on the inclined hairpin turn and the following jump was excellent, that final jump though looked a total pain in the arse.TT02B(Glen special)looked really good going round a track, it just shows u that u don't need top end cars to have good fun 👌👍

I watched to the end. Awesome video, keep it up

I watched to the end. That TT-02B is motored for speed. If you go back to that track, put a 10.5 sensored and gear it between 8.5 to 9.5. It will feel like a different buggy. But first and foremost, have fun.

yeah made it to the end! Cheers!

Great to see it go over the track. Love the build 👍

You did good Glenn. Going to a track for the first time can be intimidating.

It looks like you did a lot better than I would have And I think everybody knows that you have to do test running and a constant adjustment Per each track is its own unique setup I think Great show thanks

I watched to the end. That looked like great fun and remember don't spent too much time comparing your driving to the locals, as I am sure your driving would be far better as well after a number of weekly or months practice on the same track for a few hours. I would also agree with just change your tires and gearing and try and get back to the same track for a second run, as I think ideally you want to be able to compare the difference making those 2 simple changes makes on the same track, and the jump that was challenging you. Then I think its just a case of getting some practice and replacing parts as you break them, rather than spending large amounts of money on faster responding servo's and radio. As I expect you would have more fun (the real aim of RC) and improve faster spending the money on getting to a track rather than RC gear you then don't have the budget to actually use.

+1 watched to the end. Nicely done.

To the end. Battery with a higher c rating would give you better punch for those big jumps . Great track nice layout..

Wow that car copped a beating, so surprised nothing broke. Btw, I watched till the end 😁

Oh and I did watch till the end mate 👍

I really enjoy this video I would love for you to keep on doing this with Tamiya cars on a modern track.

I watched to the and, and big thanks Glenn for your lovely show🙏 I’ve (and my son😀) had a TT02B for ten years now, still love it and the nostalgia of Tamiya, cheers from sweden🇸🇪 (ps. in the 80’s here it was the battle of Tamiya or Kyosho, of course Tamiya was best for ever💯)

I watched to the end , the funny thing I found out with my outdoor dirt track is that the bone stock TT-02b and DT02 seem to handle the track better than my hop up versions do . I think it has something to do with the weight and balance . With less power they seem to be much more controlled through the turns . Which actually proved to me that you don’t have to spend a lot of money to have fun at a track .

Great job Glenn I think you did really on a small technical track like that. My understanding of front diff is thinner oil would give more turn in and possibly help the car to rotate in the corner. Awesome video.

I watched till the end 👍

I watched to the end 👍

That track was very small I thought you were sending it to the moon on that large jump 😂 on my Tt02b the front diff I use light grease and a quick servo and mine lock to lock is very good but change your tyres and also change pinion for quicker acceleration for the win mate

Only half way through but I could see that the driver was better than the car in that particular scenario. It looks really short wheelbase and the shocks sound solid . The car was also not squaring up after a bend so very hard to line up for a ramp like that I think it would be a good car skidding around on loose dirt but totally wrong for the track. I think anyone would have struggled to get it round The 201 should be a lot better. looking forward to seeing that go round. I can see he can drive but the car looked a nightmare . Can’t wait till he drives a well set up car . He will be keeping up with them.

I think you did great! I've never run any of my cars on a proper track...I think I'd fly out of every corner...🤣 Very interested in how this continues. I watched till the end! 😁

I watch till end

I watched till the end

I watched until the end 😃 That track was quite small and very tight, but looked like a lot of fun. And the TT02B went round really well, I was so surprised that you didn't break anything! I would definitely get some decent carpet tyres, maybe try thinning the grease in the front diff, but as others have said change 1 thing then try it or you won't know what worked and what didn't. Awesome video as always, really looking forward to the next one👍👍

I watched till the end 🙂

Great job Glenn!! I watched to the end . I think all you need to do is get proper tires, and adjust the gearing.

Great video… we like it a lot… 👍👍👍 Exactly what you have said…the pure footage from the beginning showing you from the first second on the track…getting used to the track and it's difficulties… 👍 Very nice and entertaining… Watching you I could absolutely see myself…😎🤣…mainly fighting THIS "horror" jump… 😎🤣 Totally understand your idea behind this project…because I like to do similar projects by racing budget priced models and equipment…trying to get the best out of it within the lowest possible price-range… 😉🧐 About your question about the steering… • before using some proper tires, I would change nothing on the differential… • However, I do not know what servo you are running. Is it sort of quick and strong enough for high traction surface steering demands…? • And then finally, like you already mentioned… maybe the gearing to get better punch, mainly in front of THE jump…😉 But, again with this step also… first the proper tires, because maybe your acceleration is already good enough, as soon as you get better forward traction… 😉 Keep on having a great RC FUN time…!!! 🍀 Thorsten 🌞 RACER - Budget RC Fun Team Germany 🍻 😉😂😊…

I watched to the end!… always do 😂👍. Awesome video Glenn🔥🤘I would have never been able to do that jump either, looks really tricky to get it right.

we all watched to the end I'm sure :-)

We watched to the end! 🙂

There till the end 😂 I will expect my 🥇 in the post 😜 Great fun Glenn. That track is tighter than a gnats **** hole. Makes dialing in the car crucial no doubt. Good luck cause I have no tips 😂

I watched to the end

Nice one Glenn looked good 👍😀

To the end................. I'm so happy the car went good use. Thank you
