LOL! Once its back form being painted again I will post picks. Unfortunately I went with a nostalgic single stage enamel and it didn't hold up well to the buffeting of the cover over the years so I am going to go with the base coat /clear coat system I had used on the truck. Much nicer.

Today i started assembling the TT-02R. Its my 1st Tamiya kit and i must say its a joy to assemble. So far so good.

 
 

Today, I started to build a M05 chassis

I love this chassis. I ran mine a little and it's almost fun as the ff01.

I finished the chassis. Left to do : the bodyshell. A Toyota Yaris GR. Not sure what I'll do this time, I want to do it plain simple... or not

There was not much pictures taken during the build : I was talking with a friend on the phone, and my wife said i'm not supposed to be multi-tasking, so no pictures this time 

Mine was a xb Suzuki Swift GoPro version. I lighted it. And now it's the beetle.

Doing a bit of research... My son TT02 kept having front dogbones popping out since the day we spent in Macon...
I solve the problem with universals.
On Sunday at the club, there was another TT02 with the same problem. There is a lot of discussions about it : some never faced the issue, some quite frequently... And in the other club, it was quite frequent to have someone asking about dogbones...
Anyone here with the same issue (I'm getting curious now)?

Gpm universal shafts or you could put rubber O rings in the diffs knuckles. Or foam rounds .

I already installed random universal shafts. My son run all Sunday morning with them without a single issue.But another TT02 got some front dogbones and diff cup popping out.
And franckly, at the club, this is the current running joke, as everytime there is at least one TT02 with a dogbone issue.

Still never try mine. No real interest for this chassis.  I took it only for the body.
