Great stuff Glenn. Looking forward to the speed running.
Thanks James 😊👊🏻
Not just the new equipment. Your driving is improving too. Nice one.👍
Yeah it was really nice for me to be able to show on the video I can actually drive them lol 😂
The most valuable thing in racing is " Practice, Practice, practice, !
Learn them lines ✌️😎
Love the TT02b - such a cool platform to modify
😍This is my new favorite video on the channel 🥰 all the excitement, the great driving progression, even my camera framing progression, all the funny moments, having the track all to ourselves, the shop, the staff, the food, and then your gift of the gab and TH-cam mastery ❤️. Thank you so much Glenn, it's an honour to have you as a friend 🥰 ... And then the absolute most heartwarming part.... The fantastic comments from your awesome community 🥰🥰 happy rc'ing indeed 😍
And it was all thanks to you my friend, this definitely would not of happened without you. You deserve all the credit 🤩👊🏻
Absolutely brilliant Glenn, just loved the way you progressed and got the car dialed. You are the best 💪👍😍
Fantastic I’m glad you enjoyed the video my friend 😊👊🏻
Watching how much joy you got from knocking those times down was brilliant. The best part is the fun and it looks like you had it!
Excellent thanks for watching my friend 😊👊🏻
The biggest drivers aid is practice regardless of lay out and tires make a big difference to set up, every thing else after that is fine tuning.
Thanks for watching 😊👊🏻
Wow that, was such a big improvement over your last run. I actually found that quite hypnotic to watch, both good laps and crashes which you now seemed to be able to recover most and continue the lap.
I may also need to treat myself and get one of those Tamyia Brush-less motor's as it was clear from this video just more control you get over the acceleration. It was like watching the TT02B be converted from an American drag racer, to a European sports car. Finally I now see why you would pay the extra money over a cheaper sensor less brush-less setup like I have in my DT-03.
Loved this Glenn and some solid driving. I must be the only person not to own a TT02B but great to see what can be done.
G'day Glenn wow the little Tamiya looks so grippy you can traction roll it sticks like poo to a blanket. Mate I think it looks pretty competitive you made the TT02B fly awesome video mate 👍👍 Good driving happy R/C'ing mate👍👍
Fantastic thanks buddy 😊👊🏻
Absolutely loving the track vids Glenn, was great to see your progression with it over time and just how much you got the lap times down. Brilliant!👍
Thanks Nick very much appreciated my friend 😊😊😊
Cool project to get here. I'm inspired!
Hi Glenn. I came to give this video some love after seeing your disappointment about the poor showing on TH-cam. Anyway the buggy ran great guided by your top skills. Great stuff :-)
It's pretty funny. I thought you were in the UK, and now here you are at my home track lol
I think what you’ve proven is the TT02B is a great starter kit for someone who eventually wants to go to the track. You can build the basic car, learn and then improve to a decent standard while learning how to drive and hop up. You can then graduate to a more expensive kit if you want to take it further. Everyone has to start some where and sometimes as we’ve been around the hobby for a while, we can forget that. Well done, great series.
Excellent comment my friend perfectly put 😊👊🏻
Thanks🙏 realy cool and impressive👍
I remember racing the 501X and the Baldre being picked up by some racers and the car did quite well. I think you can enjoy almost any car that is out there with the right set up and a little bit of driving ability. Cheers- Glenn.
Thanks buddy 😊👊🏻
You've achieved............... Making many of us smile.
Haha thank you 😊😊😊
hell yeah I got excited when you got it down to 14
I was paying attention to how close you were hugging the corners =) =)
Haha fantastic I’m glad you enjoyed the video my friend 😊😊😊
Phenomenal, I wish I had a carpet track near me. Love watching your progress here, makes me smile
Fantastic I’m glad you enjoyed the video my friend 😊😊😊
You are doing it! You have improved! You have learned so much. As you say the car can do more. You can too. Just keep practicing and your times will improve.
Thanks Robert 😊👊🏻
Awesomeness 👍 sensored makes a huge difference in track, 🎉
Hey thanks for watching my friend 😊👊🏻
It's been great to follow these videos all the way through and see the car and your driving of this car improve. Brilliant entertainment, thank you. The only thing I feel was missing is as you mentioned several times you had maybe reached your driving limit but maybe not the cars? It would have been nice to see someone who had been putting their car round in the 12.5's have a go with the tt02b? Just to see its full potential. Again as you have mentioned, not comparing it to high end racers but just to see its actual limit. Again thank you for a brilliant set of videos that I have thoroughly enjoyed watching
What a fantastic comment Darren. Very much appreciated my friend 😊😊😊
Loved the whole series Glenn.. i was on the edge of my seat, i knew you could get that 14sec lap!
That lower KV/ higher turn motor makes the effective gearing so much more suited to that small track, and the sensored motor gives you much smoother throttle control at lower speeds. Being geared for 57hmh on the last attempt didn't help at all.
Thanks for your effort making this series. I'm a fan of the tt02b.
Fantastic thanks for watching Pete 😊😊😊
You could definitely use that at your local club each week, get involved, get some track time and have good fun with like-minded people! 😀👍
And your line... " I don't know what I've achieved... but I've achieved something" had me in stitches! 🤣👏
Haha fantastic I’m glad you enjoyed the video my friend 🤩👊🏻
Fantastic video my friend and i was with you all the way to you getting a sub 15 second lap time. Thoroughly entertaining and a massive congratulations. BRILLIANT!!😃👍👍
Fantastic my friend, thanks so much for taking the time to watch and then to comment 😊 it’s massively appreciated 👊🏻
Good stuff mate. That's getting around the track nicely now! 👌👍
Cheers Mick 😊👊🏻
Love these videos, fascinating. It really is a robust buggy!
Thanks for watching George 😊👊🏻
Awesome, I saw Your last track day here and never realised Tamiya on carpet?
All My RC is on lowtide sand or street and it just goes Crunch.
Love it TL.
Thanks for watching my friend 😊👊🏻
Nice job Glen 😀
Great video Glen
Bring on the dirt 👍😃
Thanks Ian 😊😊😊
Loved watching you pushing the TT02b and yourself to the limit.
Was exiting to see you go faster and faster. Great series.
Got 2 TT02b's and I love them.
👍👍
Thanks so much for watching the video and leaving a comment, very much appreciated my friend 🤩
@@TAMIYALegends I watch them all. 😉👍
As always great video just started building a tt02b with a few upgrades and will upgrade some additional parts down the line
Excellent have fun with it my friend 🤩👊🏻
Doing great, keep it up! Remember: races aren’t won by high corner speed, they’re won by exit drive, acceleration out of a corner.
Fantastic thanks for the feedback my friend 😊👊🏻
Great, Glenn! 👍👍👍
Thanks buddy 😊👊🏻
Really Really rewarding to keep on pushing. Practice makes perfect. Great to see a Tamiya running fantastic. What a difference those few changes can make matey, also your driving has improved too. Great Vid Glen. 👍
Thanks Geoff 🤩👊🏻
Glad you're all hunched over man.
Haha unfortunately I have ankylosing spondylitis 🤕
Great series. Would love to watch you bring more Tamiyas to the track. Keep up the good work.
Thank you 😊
Awesome series Glenn. Obviously the tt02b will never be looked at as a high end race car. With that being said, someone on a budget can take it out and be competitive. Just goes to show you not to believe the stereo types.
Absolutely love that last bit my friend 😊😊😊
Couldn't disagree more, by the time you've upgraded this to anywhere near race worthy, you could have bought a proper race bred machine. Same for touring cars, i have a TT02 which i've thrown the kitchen sink at, it has everything, and it is competetive with top end touring cars, but it's cost me double what i paid for my Schumacher, and getting spares is a nightmare. These cars are for people who like modding, you HAVE to modify these extensively to extract any sort of performance out of them, it can be done, but you will always be at the limit of both the cars abilities and yours...
Loved every minute of it. Awesome job. Its great to see what a little humble tamiya can do.
Excellent I’m glad you enjoyed the video 😊😊😊
Ok, gonna race my tt02b next time rather than the b6.2 or b74, just so compare. Either way I will still need the marshals help! Great series Glenn👍
Fantastic I’m glad you enjoyed the video Graham 🤩👊🏻
You only live once give those cars some speed. I guess you just enjoy looking at them which is fine if that's what you want. I know england isn't RC heaven . Good job.
Nice work. The car looks like it’s handling nicely. You could really see the difference between the tyres on track. Also as you got your eye in there was a big change from ‘reactive’ driving where it looked like you were navigating each section individually and towards the end where you were threading the track sections together much more smoothly.
Fantastic thanks for watching the video my friend, it’s very much appreciated 😊👊🏻
Great effort considering what you are trying to do and with what you are doing it. Future you is going to thank past you for all the practice you put in.
Someone like Lee Martin could obviously do a better time, but he could do a better time than almost anyone if he had a brick with wheels hot glued to it. It was very interesting seeing how you did with the Associated buggy.
Excellent I’m you liked it my friend 😊😊😊
Improvement is an improvement!
I was going to suggest then you mentioned it was keeping the speed up instead of blipping the throttle. That was the one thing I heard during the video. I'm learning it too at our dirt track. I used to be an Autocross Instructor/Chief back in the 2000s and students/racers who are on and off the throttle create alot of weight transfer which makes the car hard to drive (understeer, then oversteer).
Trying to be consistent on the throttle helps keep the car planted in the turns and prevents you from going wide.
Thanks Mike 🤩👊🏻
Glenn, Awesome stuff man!!!! your getting better & better..... just have to keep at it. When I first hit a track, I couldn't even come in last, that's when I just started "racing" for fun, being a racer just wasn't for me but still love it. Good stuff man, good stuff!!!
Thank you 😊
Really goes better than I ever thought it would. I think it could do even better as you get some more practice. Great show mate!! When the chair fell…😂😂😂😂 I reckoned things like that only happened to me.
Fantastic that first sentence is what I wanted to achieve Jason 😊😊😊
And yeah that chair falling on the car was probably the best bit in the video 🤣🤣🤣
I like your channel! Watching you drive I could tell that you were way more confident than your last track video which is a good thing! I was thinking that maybe you would have been quicker with LESS motor/or dial down the punch and speed settings in the esc or transmitter. That way you could push it a bit harder without getting into trouble you know. I have an old Associated T3 that I run with a tekin 632 redline sensoress brushless motor that is way "under powered" by todays standards. While I sacrifice a little in the straights I make up that for everywhere else in that I don't have to be so careful with my throttle control, and I can really push the car. A few years ago I was passing T5s that were so fast, but every mistake was magnified. As for that jump in the back I see that you punch it instead of going in smooth on the throttle. When you punch it the car squats down more and your car is nose up in the air and the car either falls short or its rear hits the deck upon landing. By taking it smoothly with speed you could apply slight brake in the air and the car would land perfectly on the down side of the jump. For what its worth I think the TT02b is a fine buggy for club racing, even against more modern cars because its the driver that makes the most difference. Last thing is I wonder if you would have been quicker with an all stock TT02B with a decent brushed motor paired with an awesome set of tires and an expensive servo. That way you wouldn't be worried about breaking anything expensive and you could drive fast without overthinking. Just some thoughts. Take care and I look forward to more vids. Also I just subscribed!
Those carpet tires made such a huge difference,it looked like it was on rails, I have to say I'm blown away by this TT02B,you've took a basic chassis n made it a great race car. It would b interesting to have one of the guys that actually race there to drive yours and see what they think of her,I think they'd b very impressed 👏 👍👊
Fantastic comment my friend 😊👊🏻
Yup. Tires make a huge difference. That's why you see the high level drivers have an entire big bag of tires.
Amazing what the right tires will do. And helps your driving skills get better. Hit a 14, awesome. Fun watching you improve. I know you'll get faster. And yaa Tamiya.
And Yah Tamiya indeed my friend 😅😅😅
Really liking these racing videos Glen. Your right, you don't have to have the most expensive equipment to enjoy rc racing. Not unless your competing at the world championships. It would be good to see you racing when theres a race meeting on?? speaking to other drivers, looking at the equipment etc............
Excellent I’m glad you enjoyed it my friend 😊😊😊
Looked good Glenn. That is a great tight track and such a fun place to drive. Can’t wait to see more content on the track dude 👍🏻🙌🏻
Thank you 😊
Looking good Glenn
Thanks buddy I know it’s a long video but I hope you managed to see the car going round at the end 😊😊😊
Love this TT-02B series - it was so fun seeing it attack the track while inside I was cheering you on . Nicely done Glenn! 👏 👍 Hope to maybe see the Schumacher Cat XLS go around the track in the future..?
Thank you my friend 🤩
Haha I don’t know if I dare run the Cat there 😂👊🏻
@@TAMIYALegends I have no problem understanding that 😬😀
its great seeing you have fun
It was a great day my friend 😊👊🏻
love to seeing a any tamiya buggy in a track. nice runs with the new electrics and tires make a huge improvement. consider upgrading the servo motor and practice time throttle control. keep practicing god bless!
Thank you for watching my friend 😊👊🏻
Hi Glenn! Excellent video, and great series on the TT02B- hope you continue it :)
Really good to see your improvements with the car- and then your improved confidence with the car , and getting those lap times down :)
Early in the video I was getting itchy typing fingers, and Yoda quotes coming to mind like 'Accelerate or Brake -there is no Coast!' ;)
Then as you went on, less throttle blipping, less coasting- excellent work Glenn!
Obviously you can drive from all your TC experience, nice to see the confidence coming back though- a car you can trust helps doesn't it? :) I'm no expert so what can i say...
I'd like to see you match Peter's electronics in the TT02B next (hey Peter, nice job!) -then I'd predict the limits of the Tamiya would be plastic durability and set-up & fine tuning limitations...
Nice one Glenn, look forward to the next one :)
-oh, quick question, I noticed early on all the nose-dives over that far ramp, then less, -wondered if you consciously playing with throttle in the air or if it was instinct kicking in?
Hey Ben 👋🏻
First of all thanks for the great comment my friend 😊😊😊
Regarding the throttle control on the jump, there was none tbh lol 😂
Great video
Thanks James I’m glad you enjoyed it my friend 😅😅😅
Great work😎👌👌
Thank you I’m very proud of this one 😊😊😊
Wow the difference there Glenn was miles apart. a 14.8 is such a big improvement 👍, and now you know where you can gain will make it even faster. Definitely interested to see the speed run with the new combo and gears👍 also the outdoor racing at barn yard should be awesome as the track looks really good. Well I better get ready for my own speed run Sunday session 2mora 😁🤞the rain stays away lol (brushed motor speed run competition between all 18 motors) should be fun😁. Well bring on the next video 😁👍
Oh wow that’s an exciting project Wayne 😊👊🏻
The car looked pretty dialed... Good to see you stringing a few sweet laps together. Would love to see an A final standard driver putting it through its paces. That would really tell a story. I believe the car could be A final capable in the right hands. Its biggest limitation would probably be durability.
Yeah great comment Tim. I’d actually hoped there would be others at the track on the day, but we pretty much had it to ourselves all day 😊👊🏻
Thanks for watching buddy 👊🏻
Try your DB01 on that track. I think the Durga will be easier and faster to drive
You weren’t messing around in there! It’s such a shame when one slight bump blows up what would have otherwise been a perfect lap. Are we calling you Carl now? 😄
Haha yes my frustration levels were high my friend and yes I’m Carl from now on 🤣🤣🤣
fun achievement unlocked
Haha perfectly said 😊👊🏻
Unlike in off-road, where suspension, and weight distribution play a bigger part in performance, carpet requires mainly an efficient drive train, low weight, low center of gravity, good steering, and the right tires of course. By those accounts, the tt0b isn't far off.
Excellent thanks for watching and commenting 😊👊🏻
Yo its all the car mate confidence
Nice work Glenn! Great progress! I would probably increase the ride height a bit, as when it bottoms out, it destabilises the car, even 3mm all round might help. It’s always going to be a balance, going too high and you will have problems with traction rolling. Great to see you enjoying yourself, that’s what it’s all about, can’t wait for the dirt!
Thanks for your feedback my friend 😊👊🏻
Great video glen and don’t be down hearted with your skill level( your a lot better than most) but watching the jump after the wall hairpin a little slow over the jump so you landed sooner would save another half second. Remember when your wheels aren’t on the ground you can’t break,accelerate or steer and your right about being wide on the corners but practice makes perfect. Please remember your talent is more than a-lot of others which is why I love your video’s keeping going and improving you are doing great 👍
What a lovely comment Richard, thank you you’ve made my day 😊😊😊
@@TAMIYALegends no need to thank me for telling the truth
Amazing video glenn!! It's great to see u getting around the track and I absolutely love your enthusiasm!!
I think if u go around the track with an TRF u can do faster 🤣🤣
Haha this car can get around a lot faster yet my friend 😅👊🏻
Great video as always 👍
Not trying to school you so take this as you may. I suggest practicing a controlled consistant speed? Start slow and then work the trottle up as you get it right. I've noticed you like to throttle in bursts when you run and that's where you are losing your times. I was showen this technique from a old chap years ago at a local track. It took a bit to make myself stop the bursts but when I did get it and was able to mantain a continuous speed and only letting off when required. It becomes more about your steering and breaking after you get the throttling down pat. that's when I became very competitive with other well groomed racers. Everyone has a different style of running there RC's, just thought I would provide a suggestion....for what it's worth. The TT02 chassis is a really great kit for the dollar tossed at it. The bad part, it gets brittle the more hop-ups you put on. Looks great but performance is less. Out of the box with great tires and a good motor is where this chassis performs the greatest. Ha ha
Looking forward to the next video's 👌
Excellent thanks so much for taking the time to comment my friend 😊👊🏻
@@TAMIYALegends I also suggest practicing throttling using a cheap "slot car" track in the house. It really works as it teaches you how to feel the sweet spot for speed around corners without the little bugger flying off. Anyways, enjoy RCing this summer 🤜🤛
@26:26 Tamiya and a couple of other aftermarket companies sell a clip on motor heatsink. You may want to grab one esp. if you're running extended sessions. With that said, your temps are still within specs though.
Thanks buddy 😊👊🏻
Much better result. With more Track time practice, I’m sure your times will only get better.
I think, what you mean. Is the TT02b with a couple of Hop-Up’s, can be a good Club racer, in stock class 🤷🏼♂️😅
Excellent yeah that works for me my friend 😊👊🏻
This is my favorite series. New to rc with Neo being my learning curve. Looking forward to dirt track to find out if 10 5 turn has enough power to wheels. I run mine on low cut grass and loose dirt and heard lower turn engines can not be powerful enough off road.
Fantastic I’m glad you’ve enjoyed the series my friend 😊👊🏻
Yeah try the step up next time that's your couple of seconds mate 👍👍
😊😊😊
Great video! What wheels did you end up using with the carpet tires? It’s hard to find anything that fits right on these buggies!
You can try lower gear ratio. More pick-up, is a small track
I know this is an older video but I’m trying to figure out what wing mounts you are using. They look awesome and want to get some for my tt02b to lower and straighten out the wing. Thanks.
What are the white studded wheels you used I’m looking to get a tamiya neo scorcher and would like a better set of tires for astro racing
This was excellent, really ace. We all saw a perfectly legitimate 14s ;-)
Couple of things. For the uneducated, what does a sensored motor do, particularly for low end control? How does it work?
From a project perspective, how does the total cost of what you've created compare with an "out of the box" top end race equivalent from the same era? More, less, the same? I guess from a project and development perspective, this is more rewarding!
The way you swayed with each turn brought back a lot of memories from my brief and totally unsuccessful club racing days! Love it and kudos!
Hey 👋🏻
Fantastic I’m glad you enjoyed the video my friend 😊😊😊
It’s something to do with the ESC knowing exactly what position the rotor is in which then delivers full grunt. That’s an extremely basic description but it’s the best I can do lol 😂
As for cost this isn’t the cheapest way to go racing, I’d guess it’s cost around the same as a decent ish race car 🤔 but as you know that wasn’t really the aim of the project 😅
@@TAMIYALegends thanks dude, can't wait to see the speed and dirt runs!
There's someone who makes a one and a half turn brushless I think you should do that. Lol
Haha that’s ridiculous 🚗💨💨💨
what tires are you using on this one?
Nice vid Glenn, it inspires me to hop up my Plasma Edge II some more. What body are you running on that TT02B again?
Thanks buddy 😊
So I’ve used the TRF511/502/503 body set. You can get a reproduction set from Penguin in the uk. But be aware I used the TD4 wing mounts. This wing won’t really work or look right on the standard TT02B wing mounts 🤷🏼♂️
These are the Correct schumacher tires for a carpet track Glen :-)
This was all part of the project my friend 😊😅
@TAMIYA Legends that looks like a spectrum dx3 transmitter. I have the same one and when using it I couldn't corner or hold a line. it felt like the car was flopping from side to side. swapped radios and felt much better.
Fantastic thanks for the feedback my friend 😊👊🏻
At the end of the day you took a beginner car, run it , grew "with it " to an intermediate level. Isn't that how it's supposed to be? :) when you hit that 13 seconds move up to the AE
Thanks Paul 😊😊😊
I'm sorry to say but this track layout is better than the last track layout.
100% agree 😅👊🏻
Isn't it frustrating trying to make the perfect lap. Still so much fun though.
What’s not to like?
Anxiety, high heart rate and concentration level off the chart 🤣🤣🤣
@@TAMIYALegends haha yes you're right. Even mucking around in my front yard track it gets annoying when you think you're on a hot lap then you some how stuff it up. But hey, practice makes perfect. My next RC car will definitely be a Tamiya buggy kit. I'm thinking the TTO2 plasma.
Try to be less on off the throttle keep it smooth keep it up doing well
The jewel block tires were probably better for clay.
Yeah definitely 👊🏻
Aren’t they releasing an R version of this?
from little baby dirt bmx tracks to this...kinda think you forgot to unGlen the stance...its bottoming out on everything
Yeah hopefully if you watch it going round at the end you’ll see it doing a lot better 😅👊🏻
A question, but why do people race Tamiya cars on carpet, you hardly see anyone racing off-road on dirt?
Try be smooth on the throttle start slowly and faster
Thanks buddy 👊🏻
Nice car. Shame about the the driver lol.
Haha I didn’t think the last 5/6 minutes of the running footage was too bad lol 😂
You would have been in the 13 to 14 sec lap had you jumped the step up
Thanks Randy yeah absolutely I would, I honestly think with one more trip there I’d have that cat in the high 12’s 🚗💨💨💨
ughhh two "race " videos in a row (RL, TL), sorry but i find these hard to watch i much prefer the build type videos
Haha I can’t win whatever content I put out! Oh the joys of YT 🤕
@@TAMIYALegends do you have people who dont like the build vids?
@@mattallica0
Of course I do, then it’s all the, we want to see this running or on the track lol 😂
My point is I do everything on my channels, some you may like some and some you may not 🤷🏼♂️
I do my best that’s all I can do 👊🏻
@@TAMIYALegends yeah i get that and i was just stating my opinion.
