diehard, the first thing you should be asking yourself is what surface are you going to drive on the majority of the time? once you tell us that the rest is a piece of cake.. 🙂

hey
well i think i would love to get it running indoors at home but i only have tile flooring but i must say today i took it to a mates house who has solid timber flooring and it was too slippery.that was with wide wheels. it would be good for a awd. i was doing a good job drifting the ma01 at his house.Once i have the mr02 i might make a track out of rubber like a lot of home jobs but i can get carpet for free so im not sure yet.short pile carpet or rubber????? i will wait and see
until i get it im still looking for a awd to buy.lol
between ,my mr01 and my kyosho alpha gp3 im in rc heaven
thanks

Hi Diehard,

Heres a little history of this 02 for ya !!!

This 02 was my original 02 !!! I brought it from the states secondhand, I sold it to a mate of mine who sold it to the guy you got it off !! The guy you got it off only had it for a few days and the guy I sold it to never used it, He only had it as a display car as it had my VDS body on it !! so when the new guy got it I brought the VDS body back from him !!! (I missed it too much and it still had not been used since painting !!!:D )

The guy you got it off brought it in a package deal and sold it so he could get more hop ups for his AWD !!!

When I got it, it had dead fets and was fairly stock with only the motor mount being installed !!! I did the FET stack and from memory (which is not very good) It is either 2×2 or 3×2 stack of FET’s that I cant remember !!! (I told you it was bad!!! 😀 )

I brought a shit load of hopups for it but I removed them all bar the motor mount,top shock, ball diff and VDS body when I sold it !!! The guy you got it off put a brand new BB motor case on it before he sold it !!! It had a PN speedy motor in it when I sold it which I think is the guts that is now in the BB can !!! but I’m not 100% sure of this. I can find out for you if you want !!!

The car is in really good nick dude !! The clips were broken from using them to remove the batteries The guy you got it from did this the first time he removed them !!! :gatlin: I’m not to sure what the other part that was broken is, (i’ll ask him about this too)

You wont be dissupointed with this car man, it is sweet !! I only sold it cause I could never get 02’s to handle but I have since purchased a new one and the guys on here have sorted the handling problems for me as I had the same problem with the new one !!!

Heres some links for ya !!
