so ..... after my past few weeks racing buggys being somewhat disasterous i have decided to try to inject some fun into my friday nights and as from next friday i shall be racing my TL01 in the clubman class. i will be using a 17t brushed motor but geared right down with a 19t pinion so as not to gain any advantage on the streight. im looking forward to participating in some gentelmanly racing without getting my my knickers in a twist like i did this week sorry chaps the red mist seemed to be with me all night

Nice one mate! Gui is running his TL01 with a 15t so I would just run the same gearing as him.

I think I might race my TA02 - whilst the Shamta Ray did provide some entertainment for people, it was a little lonely at the back

Should be running 13t brushless with 20t pinion so hoping for some good wheel-wheel racing between the 3 of us

FWIW I am not sure that I will keep on running the TL01 with the 15T. Might go back to the Ansmann motor.

The 15T has caused a number of overheating speedo issues that have me worried for the long term health of the speedo... If I run the car slowly for too long it shuts itself down.

PS: If I can figure out how to mount a fan in there somewhere (the electronics are all packed inside the chassis) I may go that route.

PPS: FWIW I am running standard gears (no speed kit) and a 21T pinion with the HPI motor. With the 21T I did run speed tuned gears.

Hope you lads had a good time this friday, couldn't make it this week ... Got an old 19t double for my tt01 now as the silver can was getting left behind ... Hope to be down with you all this coming friday for some Tamiya tourer fun .... Wil aim to give the ff03 a point around the carpet as well ... God I love the old Tamiya ...


When are we running the holiday buggies or better still the lunch boxes?

When I ran my 13T in the mini, it was about on par with the black can (23t?).

This friday I will be running 27t in the Shamta Ray and 13T brushless in Shergar

The FF03 has a 13T installed and the 6 wheeler is fast enough ... maybe bring those instead ...

The FF03 will be an interesting comparo against the TA02 and TL01.
