How did you get the pinion onto your brushed motor? It seems like the motor shaft isn’t long enough to put on the stock pinion?

Looks great 👍

Get a TT-02 D kit and get ball bearings, a motor heat sink, oil filled dampers, sport tuned motor, probably more, and all for a reasonable amount more. I bought one and decided to get another and make a touring car from that kit rather than a TT-02 standard kit, I have some good road tires and now have spare drift tires too. Look into it, just not many bodies for the chassis option though. I like getting extra bodies too though for the few chassis I have, painting is part of the fun. Enjoy following your progress and will be making my own TT-02 journeys also buying pinion gears and spur gears myself now.

Major problem is the gear ratio on a TT is way too low for speedruns. Most you can get out of the mod 0.6 pitch is 5,74 FDR with 64/29 combo. Thats great for a 17,5 blinky but nowhere near what you need. Do yourself a favor and switch it over to a 48 pitch with the yeah racing slider motor mount. HRC black delrin spurs are bolt on to the tamiya high speed spur holder. If you want a daily 48 ratio kimbrough 301 66/24 with 2 extra holes to mount it. That gives you a FDR of 7,15. That's fine for the box stock torque tuned or hotter brushed can. My final drive ratio was 4.4 with a 60/35 48 pitch and a hole in the spur cover to hold such large gear. On top a F540 4370kv on 3s. That was good for 60 mph+ Number for said spur gear is HRC 74860 LW for the 60 48dp and Kimbrough KB301 for the 66 48dp

The carbon upper deck and battery holder are useless upgrade as much as the carbon fiber bumper holdef. Alu steering linkage, high torque servp saver, alu propeller, oil shocks and adjustable arms are the best ipgrades u need. If u want to compete oil diff and cvd is not a bad idea, it is just a very expenaive set and , forthat price, j qould get some higher end car

Awesome! I'm finally going to enter the challenge this year so I'm pulling everything together that I need for this...awesome!

Some very nice upgrades there. A hopped up TT02 feels so much better imo 😇 I have upper deck from Fibre-Lyte in UK 👍

People new to Tamiya will never understand they will reproduce like rabbits 🐇 Good luck on the 01X challenge!

I would like to put the carbon upper deck on mine. Did you get it from JK-RC? Also, I love the Tamiya rally cars, I have a few myself but I really want an Escort cosworth like yours. Stunning looking car!

BTW it helps to remove the front bumper to work on the servo arm.

I had several comp grade crawlers and I find this CC-02 (73 Bronco) the most fun on the trail, even more so thany SCX10. So why spend the money for a steering link when the stock one works well, I did replace the plastic drag link with an Axial 98 tune (green anodized) with Axial (Traxxas) rod ends which I have plenty in my parts box. Works great and no bump steer

West Sussex here too, near Burgess Hill... Need somewhere to speed run i can get to on public transport!

Feel for ya. Thanks for sharing. I avoid white like the plague.

Great build 👍🏻

Should of saved your money lol

Hey nice build. Yeah this kit is a bit wibbly wobbly in places like you say. I don't think it's very fast out of the box and it's a bit all over the place so the contest will be tricky. I look forward to seeing how you get on 😁👍👍

Adams playground over 50mph so far but not sure gps is correct so ordered new one

❤👍👏🔥😎👑🤩🏆🤣coool

Looks great.

Fantastic looking beetle.. I love it!

Late to commenting but that looks the business ❤

Hey you've done a lovely job on that 👍👍 Good luck with the contest 😁

Where about’s is this? I didn’t know it existed, near the park?

Great colors!

Where about’s are you based? Looks like Bognor Regis?

Where you buy body?

Great job on the body, those stickers made it pop! Lots of luck on the challenge! 😎👊👍

Looks awesome. Wishing you great runs and lots of fun 👍

Good looking body, now let's get it going fast! :)

It looks fantastic!! I'm happy to see you I this. Best of luck!!!

Looks awesome mate!

The stickers makes the colours look great!

looks great! best of luck

Nice paint job, loving the colour scheme you got going on there. I'm struggling with the rain up here can't get any painting done yet and there's not a lot of spares for this chassis in Wheelspin Models, all the main bits are sold out and it's only going to get worse. Got the car sort of built waiting for the bearings to come soon I hope. Good luck with the SRC, it's going to be a fun one for sure.😊😊😊

The body looks well!

All you had to do was recalibrate the esc 🤦🏻‍♂️

Lovely to see you back in the 2024 SRC!

The three m red things you saw our double sided sticky tape.

Have you seen the hornet Evo?Are you going to get one?

Good Luck!

Hey, difficult to comment on, without being in front of the car. But you mentioned moving the timing of the motor, that will impact top speed without a doubt. Also you mention having to reverse the throttle using your transmitter, you could leave the transmitter setting as standard and simply switch the wires from the motor to the ESC. Check your transmitter for the end point limit adjustment, also your ESC, you might need to go through the throttle calibration sequence, hope to see some improvements for you 😊😊best wishes 😊

Hi Ian. looking forward to see what you do with this car, best of luck out there on the speed runs! 😎🏁👍

Awesome video! Hopefully my kit will be here this week! Good luck!🤜🤛

Looks like Fil has his work cut out this year with the amount of channels already joining in. See you near the bottom of the leader board 🤣

Great stuff, buddy, I just subscribed so I won't miss your speedrun! I saw you posted to the group, but this was KZfaq suggesting I watch the video this time. Have fun with the challenge, I'm in brushed as well, perhaps we can battle for last, ha ha! Or probably lower middle is where I will end... I just counted, I have 4 RC car challenges going this year, so I got plenty, ha ha... But as you say, they are so tempting...

Nice!

Nice great to see all the entries..

Great to see you again in the Challenge. Have fun and get good results 🤩

Glad you entered and Great Luck!

Nice to you decided to hoin in the fun 😁 i still need to save up for the kit. Hopefully i’ll be running later next month 🤞
