Can anybody advise against having a SUPER STOCK MOTOR RZ in their TT01 on standard gearing (21t pinion)?

Yeah you can. You just need the right tires. You wont damage anything at all. You will just be getting a lot of dust and dirt in your ballbearings and shocks(if you have oil filled). Just make sure after you rally to clean your ballbearins.

yeah i guess or use compressed air. Beware also of getting dirt all over your rx. Also, you will need to clean your motor after every run too due to the dust and dirt. Your brushes may run down even faster too.

No, It is the 5700 motor. THe 7700 would be a little faster.
yeah, i know.

No, the 5700 can handle a 3 cell lipo setup while the 7700 can only handle a 2 cell lipo.

yeah i know. but a 7700 is faster than a 5700 on 7 cell nimh. It depends on what batteries and setup you are using.

You can use air on the motor if you want to...but theres really no need to.

Just gave it a run with the new shoes, and woweyyyy

This thing turns on a dime.

Might go down tommorow and buy a few more packs. Not sure If I'm go to get the $75 matched IB4200 packs or the $40 unmatched IB4200s'.

Makes enough different to help you win... Sometimes its that little bit that wins it for you.

I'm learning at getting x2 un matched packs rather than 1 matched pack.

Either way it's going to assembled SxS with deans plugs.

yeah, at first i thought i'd keep it authentic and keep the body higher (like a real rally car) but it did look a bit odd, its the lowest it will go without arch work being done!
