seeing all the 22T's being built, I am itchin bad. Maybe I should do my taxes , lazy me, I get a refund every year, but usually wait until 04-15 to file

pretty cool that some are starting to get theirs. can't wait to see some built.

I've been running mine now for about a month. Truck handles great but rear traction seems to be an issue. #55 pistons in the back shocks 25 wt oil camber links all the way out on wheel side and white springs helped quite a bit. 28mm ride height all the way around. I would advise to do kit setup first and go from there.. Great truck tho. Happy to have a stadium truck class again at the local tracks! I'm Also running it in mod with a 9.5. So box kit stock setup might work great for stock.

I built mine this week, went together really nice. Cant wait to run this bad boy!

good luck mate. im sure you will love it. dont know what you have set up for tires but the blue bar codes work great all the way around. we have experimented with all different tire combos on that truck and those seem to be the most consistent on all hard pack dirt tracks..

Good to see a fellow BMW tech on here

Haha. Yes. We all have to stick together so we don't go crazy Working on these fine German automobiles.

I'm looking for one of these, if someone wants to get rid of theirs.

I'd be willing to trade my xxt or my xx for one + some cash.

Folks on RCtech think that they're worth as much used as new.

they are still pretty new so you may not be seeing such great deals now but when people stare getting tired of the new truck fad, I would assume prices will drop. great truck tho. you should not be dissapointed.

Well my racing buddies have finally, after much debate, convinced me to join the 2wd truck class... Since I run a TLR22 in buggy class, I decided to keep it similar and get a 22T. Had it out last Saturday for it's maiden run and it seems pretty good. I am desperately needing to get the tires scrubbed in and the foams softened to get more traction. A typical problem at the track I run on. New tires aren't worth a flip. The best traction we get is on close to bald rubber with ultra soft foams. So I have to put up with some low traction until the tires get to their happy place.

Yep couldn't resist a good deal on a new in box TLR22T.

So i bought it to race now & again. Going to build mine with in the next 2 weeks that i'm on holidays..

Can't wait to run it.

Post your opinions please !!!

Guys at my local track were complaining about a rear grip (or lack of) issue- other than that they raved about it everywhere else. I thought that the parts quality was superb, parts also seemed to not develop that "1 run AE slop"-

Thanks for the Tip.

I will build it with Max rear traction in mind.

Will run Harder front tires too.

Counting the days down till build time.
