Welcome to the forum!

If you don't want to spend lots of money, get yourself a TA05.

DO NOT GET A TT01 NO MATTER WHAT ANYONE SAYS.

That thing fails.
For just $15'ish more, you can get a TA05. Which is one hell of a good kit! With only a few upgrades, it can keep up with the $500 kits in a competition...However skill does make a load of difference!

How old are you, by the way?
I'm 14.
Oh and just a reminder, don't bother looking in the "looking for something" or "for sale section" if you live in Colorado. We all live in Dubai/United Arab Emirates.

welcome to the forums bro clown

@AB if tt01 is really that bad like you say it is.. how come our current DK is using one.. mostly it depends on the driver not the kit.. lets not blame it all on the chassis.

kits doesnt come with skills clown

Welcome to the forums ... :cheers:

mmhh... you first me on that one jay...

I started using the TT-01 as a drifter.. upgraded and used all tweaks i can possibly do..
Won against DK eathan once using TT-01... i guess its not that bad.. for a starter..

now my TT-01 is a full racer.. up againts the minis and other CF 4wd chassis..

yesterday i was in Al Ain.. its getting better..lol

IN SHORT ITS HOW YOU DRIVE YOUR KIT!

Also, @ Jay-STARr you are most welcome to see the For Sale Threads.. it might help in a different manner...

I agree, the reigning DK :king: sets the best eg of driving a stock TT01 car. The best part of a TT01 is the widely available spares, hop ups, and generic parts all at a fraction of the cost. And this kit will hopefully not discontinue like the other kits from tamiya :cheers:

TT01 is a basic starer kit of tamiya Ta05 is a mid level one

AB most of us here start using TT01, dont you know in the Philippines a kit who beat Pro D in a competition is a TT 01 shocked

as jay say kit does not have its own skills :cheers:

Subject: Re: A few questions ?? Sat Jan 23, 2010 2:35 pm

AB,

dont knock a tt01, it probably one of the best entry level kits you can get!!!

I've havent had a single issue with mine since i got it and it goes brilliantly! it it competitive against kits 5 times its price.....

Subject: Re: A few questions ?? Sat Jan 23, 2010 3:10 pm

Totally agree with the TT-01. Im still using one, until now . . . Still the best drift kit, Ive had . . .

Dont blame it on your kit. maybe you just dont know how to set it up, or worst, you dont know how to drive. . . smile

A tt01 is a really good beginners kit. . . with the right set-up. . . and good drifting skills, . . it will give a pro-D a hard time to beat. . hell. it can even beat a pro-d!. . . . smile

, PRACTICE is the key here. . . .

welcome to the forums dude. .

cheers
