to be fair, it'll need alot more knowledge to get it set up right so he's fallen at the first hurdle before he's even driven it.
There alot more fragile than the xray too...

I'd get yours working first. If anything the xray is best car to learn about what setting makes a difference.
Giving in and buying a different car is batty boy lol

LMAO FOOOOOOOL! The associated is a good car, but soft as chit Xray you can bounce off of things hard and still keep going.

Scott, I don't wanna put a downer on your plans, but I also don't want bits of your car causing a road block. Honestly the TC6 is much more fragile than an Xray and I know you'd get pissed off when it breaks on you all the time.
Think again and come back to us with a better idea.

Have to agree with Neil, wasting your money. Its like buying a new car and deciding your bored of it after 3 months and loosing out to the depreciation.
You either get a decent wage or you've got good pocket money to be too'ing and fro'ing from different brands. You know the Xray works well, and are very robust compared to others, save yourself the dollar.....and do something worthwhile with it instead.

Here, here......took me about 6 months or so to setup and nearly ended up on ebay many times, but overall a great car........ Xray straight out of box.....equals win! These no way I will be looking at another associated after owning an xray

Personally wouldn't swap from the xray just yet, but if you choose to then I'm sure the tc6 will be a excellent car, I've had the tc5 for a long time now barely broke anything (but i don't usually hit much ;D) and I personally feel it runs great straight out of the box. If I were you and you really do want a new car then I'd have a look on a few forums to see what they are saying about it. Another option would be to spend a few quid getting your xray upgraded, not sure what model you have but www.exotekracing.com/EXOTEK_NEWS/Entries/2010/4/12_XR3.htmlalso some Tamiya trf shocks would help improve the car and swapping parts just to get rid of any play from wear and tear.

I let Scott see the tamiya shock's on my car .All he seamed to be concerned about they were the wrong colour they would not look right.

Post by scotts17 on Aug 2, 2011 14:48:50 GMT
I don't see the point in tamiya shocks tbh. Xray ones arnt that difficult anyway and they're not designed to work on the car so for a tiny little bit more hassle I'd rather run the Xray ones

Post by Graham D on Aug 2, 2011 16:20:25 GMT
No offence scott but its not how hard the shocks are build that makes the difference, Tamiya shocks are absolutely Top Notch, theres a reason people go to the extra effort of fitting them and its not because they look nice in blue . Either way good luck. I used to always love getting new cars and bits so...... ;D

tamiya shocks really transform the cars handling if your struggling. If i was scratching my head and hadnt got a diecent set up i'd be looking at changing to a set!
I mean scott, how much can you tell me about rebound? hahaha

Post by scotts17 on Aug 2, 2011 17:40:26 GMT
