Just noticed. The two holes furthest to the front, are there any screws there? Edit :- Never mind I had the bracket around the wrong way, screws are now in place Last edited by Raven28; 01-04-2014 at 10:15 PM. |

Not much to update. Car did well in the 4th race of the 2014 CRC series. Sounds like I have a few crunchy bearings, but that is to be expected with how I treat this car. A couple shots before and during the race. Oh I also have a Ford Fiesta 2012 body in transit. Can't wait for the big move to Ford. |

Where are you getting the Ford Fiesta body from? I've been looking for one of those! Nice pictures by the way!

I don't know if you guys already know this, but Tamiya has announced an XV01 long damper kit edition at the nuremburg toy fair. For pics, check out tamiyablog(.)com. The main advantage I see on this new release is the ability to install buggy springs for more tuning options into the car.

I can't really tell, is it a full vehicle kit or are those parts just becoming available as parts?

It is indeed a full on kit, but it is a limited edition item though.

| Re: Turtle's Modified XV-01
Well my son decided to come early so I missed the CRC race on sunday, but I managed to get away and drive the track for 5 minutes before a solder joint broke on my deans plug. Today I decided to shorten the wires and resolder both wires. Then I noticed something, the area the wires came out had a lip that could potentially hold a closure of some type. It gave me an idea to make this. Which slid into the slot and held the wires in place. Not the best mod I have done, but seems to serve a purpose. Then I started looking at the underside and am thinking it's time for a new chassis protector setup. |
