The Build – Part 17
The final step in the Team Associated TC6.1 Build is the wheels, tires and body.
Build Notes:
If you plan on mounting your own wheels and tires, I suggest using a set of CompetitionX Gloo Toobs to keep the gluing process simple and pain-free.
I had the Protoform body custom painted, but don’t be afraid to try painting it yourself.
I chose to go with a set of Solaris pre-mounted wheels and tires. This setup works great at my local outdoor track. Slide them on and secure them with the M4 locknut. If you waited until this point to paint your body, you’ve made a smart choice. Marking the body mount locations and tire cutouts on a clear body is SO much easier than a painted one. Either way, drop your body on and slide the body pins in place.There you have it; a complete A-Z TC6.1 build. I hope this has helped you in this process. Thanks for following along with this build and let your friends know it’s here.
