haha. yes it is VERY hop'd up. Im not even finished with it yet ^_^
I was havings trouble setting up my pinion and spur gears, then I realized that the motor mount can actually be mounted in 4 different configurations. Im now running 25/55 and it runs very smoothwithout teeth chatter ^_^

I just took a kids Haro bicycle haha.
I was test running out side my house on the street with my TT-01. I drove back and forth a few times slowly so I could adjust my steering trim and this group of bmx ridders rolled up and asked me if it was gas powered... I shyly said... "no.. its battery" and then they wanted to race against it on thier bikes (one said pinks) haha. So I let them think they were going to win and then about half way I railed the throttle and flew by them all for the win ^_^
I peddled my new bike up my driveway carrying my car ;D
just so everyone here knows... ALL the world top speed records for RC cars are held by "Electric".

mmm.. well i'm really guessing ur not from singapore now by the way. but anyway, just so you know, it might be more value for money to buy a better chassis altogether that comes with hop-ups rather than to keep upgrading a tt01.

I'll give the bike back soon, I'm 22 and have no need for it. I dont plan on racing so I dont see any reason to buy another chassis. I like how easy the TT-01 is to disasemble and maintain.

ALL the world top speed records for RC cars are held by "Electric". wait a min...am i right to say that you "won" the bike? (I peddled my new bike up my driveway carrying my car ;D) just makin sure hehehe... man that's cool! i kinda visuallised it in my head while readin' that..like, "hey check out this fella with his battery-powered car, we can take him out in 4 seconds flat and show him what speed is!" but i guess they learnt otherwise! haha..anyways bro, go easy on the throttle...if you're on pvc and there's a turn or obstacle ahead, watch the braking distance...remember Tokyo Drift? when that dood takin' on DK drifted for the first time...nailed that silvia on the wall! hehe Have fun bro...hope to hear more from ya! ;D

Im wondering if I should lock up my rear diff, I have it packed right now but often a wheel will still disengage. is it better to have "some" differential function or should I just lock it up ?
