well if its not off road then no. carpet and gravel are very different terrain
ORIGINAL: rcluke

lol unlucky about your gears, how do you seal it?, and is it still accessible after?, and i probably wouldnt be running on gravel or rocks anyway, probably just on an indoor carpet track, made for buggys and trucks, with jumps in lol, so would i need to seal it then?

um. then why did you ask. nobody said you coudlnt put 190mm bodies on it. those motors are ok. not the best just becasue they say drift on them doesnt mean they are good. those are really low turn motors. witch means less torque. a good motor is the monster stock pro co27. http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXLXT7&P=ML i have one and i like it.

Should be ok then luke if its indoors no need to seal up [8D]
also on travel height on the TT-01 i read on another forum some guys cut some of his front bumper mount away which gave the springs more reach but i wouldnt do it myself probally fall apart after a jump lol
indoor carpet with jumps sounds good tho

Yeah RCMART is very legit.

Great prices, easy to deal with, fast postage from my experiences with them.

I was looking at RcMart for getting some parts from. Looked great. Total was $20 cheaper than tower but the shipping would be $44, ahh.

If you get your parts at rcmart you could do it for a reasonable price
