Why a TT01.
Tamiya are ok starter machines, but for the price of a TT01 you can get better stuff.

Just talked to the most idiotic advertisement agency in the world.
We've bought an ad in a magazine, so called the agency to hear about PDF options etc. They asked for separate files for logo, images etc.
So I ask them why they'd need that, when they get a print ready PDF from me!?
Guy goes "Oh, we don't print from your PDF we do the layout in house."
"But I've done the layout?"
"Yeah, but the we just redo it in InDesign."
"But....... why???"
"It's easier to handle that way."
The advertisement business is fucked if companies can survive in the long run, with policies like this.

That would be the problem
Look at some cheap 2400mah batteries.

Morning/Afternoon all!
TT01's are alright little cars with all the hop ups you can get for them. Just there are much better kits for the money.
I've got a TA03 that I got for a free off a mate that I just chuck around drifting Perfect for what I use it for but still much better stuff on the market.
