Yes sir, did that yesterday. :)

Well the kits built and ready to go, so can we clear up the wheel situation. What fits without any modification ?

I think TAMIYA 51321 & 51320 are the stock DB 01 Wheels so I can't see how these will not fit. I have also read Team C wheels may fit but what is everyone running at the moment?

Hi guys,

Will be posting updates and new products on facebook page:

Chassis protectors for 503 and 201 XMW are now in stock.

How do we place orders for them, Fredrik?

Thanks Fredrik!
Is the TRF503 Diff Cover in stock too?

Best regards

Not yet i think :cry:

Also is it cut around the screw holes or do you need to remove it when you want to take and chassis screws out ?

Very nice indeed! I'd love to have both those cars.

Anyhoo to be content with what I have, which is pretty dam good I've entered an Enduro race on 20 July in a Team of 4 drivers at Castlehill Offroad Club, Sydney AUS. I'll be running my 201XR as each Team requires at least 1 2wd Car. My Daughter is part of the Team and will be running her DB-02 (with a few mods). The other members of our team will be running Schumacher K1s and possibly a TRF511. A K1 will definitely be run, but they are tossing up between another K1 and their 511.

I'm hoping they choose the 511 to make a nearly all Tamiya Team. The race is 5 hours, 4 cars per team, minimum time limits to be applied to all drivers, motors open, batteries limited to 6000mah.

I'm running the 201 in XR (rear motor) as all attempts with the XM at Castlehill, while encouraging, ultimately came to the conclusion that its a rear motor track, especially if track goes away and clay breaks up and gets a little dusty. When sugared the track can defiantly support mid motor, but if it goes away, which is a possibility during an enduro, as there will be no time for stoping and track maintenance!

Thanks for the look see Sir Dave - maybe one day I'll sneak a 201XMW and 503 past the wife!

Back marker took out myself and one other at end of main straight, then got rear ended at full speed by other. He broke front suspension tower and looks look mine is write off.

Ouch! Another member had the front of their 503 bent by a big hit. Is it just the chassis or the bulkhead parts as well? Wonder if a carbon bottom chassis plate would be beneficial?

One bulkhead looks tweaked, and bent suspension shaft.
Was going to buy a trf201xmw kit this month but looks like i have to get a replacement 503 instead *sigh*

Hi!
No, there are no cutouts for the screws. When I tested them with holes they were ripped easier around the holes. Also, the screws were damaged. So i decided that was better if the screws also got some protection. :-)

Website will soon be launched. Meanwhile, you can order via PM.

Thanks for posting! :-)

Damn your the 4th person that I know of who has broken the rear upper carbon deck!!:eh?:.... The front tower front and rear upper decks seem to be a really weak point on the 503..... Somebody should try to make some stronger versions... Hint' Hint':wub

A carbon chassis would be awesome... If someone was willing to make them... I know I would buy it....:woot::thumbsup:

You are welcome!!:thumbsup: Thanks for making great items that are useful :)

Now if you would just work on a few Carbon fiber parts for the 503 that would be awesome!!:thumbsup:

Why not make a Carbon lower deck as a direct replacement for aluminium one and then make wider upper decks, carbon as well, similar to 511. The "fatter" upper decks made a big difference on the 502's performance and mine has taken some big hits from my own doing trying to clear a quad!
