hey Shawn, I was looking at them a while back to be honest I just don't see many people with them.....but then again I have only been to a few clubs. I just wondered how people got on with them indoors on a more slippy surface, with them being a forward motor set up I believe they are suited to mid to high grip surfaces, so maybe I might see more of them outdoors during summer racing?

For next time at cully I will prob put my new motor in the yokomo, I managed to get an 11.5t vortex pro motor for 30 quid at yorcc last night so will take my 17.5t motor out and see how I go......slowly getting to grips at cully and slightly better than I was a few weeks ago, although I am still in the beginner bracket lol

Default Team C TM2 V2

Hi, I have a TM2 V2 and have raced it once at York amd managed to get good grip levels; however I did have to do some work on the set up.

Softer springs on both front and rear.

Low viscosity weight shock oil.

Cut the rear top deck.

Add a little weight in front of the rear diff housing.

Next time I may also use 1 deg outboard toe in also.

I think not a bad start but I think this could be improved, as time goes on.

Run 8.5T brushless motor with ECS on smooth power delivery.

That's a good price for the motor. I think Modelsport have some in a sale too buddy. I've put my Yoke back to the old setup with the shorty across the back instead of down the chassis. That Team C we saw was running rear motor and it was quick. It's hard getting back into it after 12 years away! Did you go to York yesterday?
