| Tc3
A few of us up at work race each other on road touring cars and I got tired of using my Tamiya Hummer converted to car (even though I havent lost a race with it). I found a good deal on a used TC3 chassis (thanks sniper), so I have been building it for our next race. Specs: TC3 chassis MIP CVDs Tamiya Super Low Friction shocks Front anti-sway bar 7 cell 4700 mAh pack 19T Reedy Challenger HiTec 5955TG Novak XRS Rear spool Pics: I still need to clean up the wiring a bit (that negative battery lead is bugging me), but it is mostly finished and is pretty damn fast.

| That thing looks pretty good. I used to have a TC3 a few years back, until the TC4 came out (I bought one of those). I like that Ford GT body on there. I like the black body and black wheels... When I was buying my most recent body It was between the Ford and the Saleen S7. I also built mine to race around with a couple guys at work. But now I'm the only one left with a TC (they all wanted something off-road, and didn't want to buy 'another'). So now mine is built for one purpose, to reach highway speeds... The last time I clocked it, it reached 56mph... And still takes off light a lightning bolt. |

Thanks! Yeah, one of the guys I race has a new TC4....the other has some really fancy Yokomo with a lot of CF and an X-ray. None of them have beat the Tamyia Hummer convert. Driving skills pays off! I hope this TC3 can keep up. |
