TheRcRacer Tamiya TA08 Pro Rear Brace available
I'm a big fan of the Tamiya TA08. I've had a trouble free time with mine, but some have had issues with the rear of the chassis snapping off after a large collision.
So with that in mind, and with help from the TA08 racing community here is a brace that will drastically reduce the chance of this happening.
As you can see, it's made of 2.5mm carbon, so it will strong and lightweight (5g). It will also not obstruct the roll bars once mounted on the chassis.
The 16mm screws that are included in the kit seem to be fine, but for extra strength I suggest you replace them with four 18mm counter-sunk screws.
So there you are. Hopefully this is going to save some racers a huge chunk of cash.. and obviously still add a little bit of carbon bling to the already cool looking Tamiya TA08 Pro.
Lots more coming soon ;)
