ok, im getting a carbon top deck, woven graphite front and rear suspension towers, 30mm foams, better ball cups and a protoform body for my ta04, it all comes out to about 65$. also might pick up this 9t esc for 28$ on rc mart, so is it worth it. im planning on racing carpet oval. mabe at the strand.
thanks,
mike

mikedoesnt sound like a bad price, but try and get some experience first and talk to the guys at the track, The Tamiya cars dont do to good on foam tires on the carpet, they are great rubber tire cars though for racing. especially a touring car on oval, unless there is a touring car class you will get killed,

I have had many touring cars over the years since they camo on the scene back in the early 90's. And have found tamiya to be not as good as say losi or associated and especially xray on the carpet. Tamiya makes an awesome race car but the cars roots are in asphalt for the most part
