58720 Tamiya TT02 SRX announced First pictures and info
https://www.thercracer.com/2022/11/58720-tamiya-tt02sr-announced-first.html
Key features are..
- TRF420 Suspension
- XV02 Gear Differential (which will have lightweight gearbox joints (22065) as opposed the steel versions)
- XV02 Front spool
- It includes the std TT02 propshaft, however the Prop joints are revised (22066) to allow the use of plastic diff cushions to prolong life (Was this ever an issue?)
- Alloy 5mm clamp style wheel hex's
So nothing really there that is going to be an issue if you already have a TT02-SR. There are actually some potential issues. If you want to be able to set droop, the TRF420 arms have the downstop screw on the other side of the arm. This means that the Tamiya 54638 Steel Rebound stoppers will not work 😓 :( . Personally I find droop one of the most important things when tuning a car, so having to resort to using internal spacers isn't something I would find fun. There will be a third party solution, but if you need to use only Tamiya exclusive parts then that is going to be a problem.
The other thing I really would have loved to have seen is the ability to have Stabiliser (Roll) bars mounted to the car. There are ways to do this (Check out our guide here), but it would be nice to have a simple bolt on Tamiya solution.

Still, it looks like a very nice and capable chassis for an entry level shaft car, and another racy TT02 is a good thing in my eyes :)
Here is the official info (Badly translated).
