Tamiya Euro Truck Rules

Tamiya Euro Truck

This class is run with similar rules to the Tamiya Championship Series. The spirit of this class is to be a fun, truly “build it and run”, low-cost, box stock class.

  • Tamiya TT-01 based Euro Semi Truck kits only. The kit must be built EXACTLY as shown in the manual.
  • Must use kit supplied motor and ESC. The original motor bullet connectors must be used and the wires may not be shortened. The battery connector may be replaced with a Dean’s style connector.
  • Reverse must be disabled in the ESC.
  • Only upgrade allowed is ball bearings.
  • No modifications to the chassis or any other kit parts are allowed.
  • All kit screws must be used. Screws may not be omitted to change the handling of the truck.
  • You must run all the kit parts including (but not limited to) the servo saver, springs, steering links, etc. Again, this is a box stock, fun, low cost class. Bearings are the ONLY upgrade allowed!
  • Racers may use grease in the differentials. However, grease must not leak out of vehicle. Differentials must work and cannot be “locked” mechanically or with putty or similar materials.
  • Must use kit supplied pinion and spur gears.
  • Must use kit supplied tires and wheels. Foam or other tire inserts are not allowed.
  • Tires may be glued on the sidewalls ONLY.
  • The full body must be used. Body may not be modified to lower center-of-gravity or reduce weight. Tamiya bodies only (including the “Fat Fox”)!
  • Adding FOAM material to the kit foam bumper is allowed.
  • 2S LiPo hardcase battery. Max capacity of 6,000mAh. (Reedy Wolfpack recommended) Chassis may not be modified to fit the battery. Kit supplied battery strap must be used.
  • Max voltage of 8.40V
  • Any SXT traction compound may be used. SXT is the only brand of compound allowed.
  • Any servo and receiver may be used.
