Racing a Porsche GT3 RC Race Car

we're gonna build a Porsche GT3 radio controlled race car then we're gonna take it Racing for the YouTuber racing match round two so in the last YouTube advice I have a little bit of an advantage I had a highly modified car set up by professional racing on my home track so needless to say I came first so the other suggested that we have a favorite race this time so all of us have to use the same car the Tamiya tt02 chassis we're all going to be on the same tires the only upgrade we're allowed is bull races and the car is super basic not much adjustability at all anywhere we're also going to race at a track that none of us have raced at before so this time it's going to be a completely Level Playing Field with only skill being the deciding factor right let's get wrenching so the kit comes with his plastic bearings however we're allowed to use the bull races [Music] so here I'm assembling the center drive shaft assembly for the four wheel drive system [Music] foreign [Music] and now we can fit the motor and start on the suspension next we're going to build the shocks now there's not really any shock action it's just a body and a spring next up we've got to sort out the radio gear now I'm going to use this Orion Servo here Dumbo radio and the ESC that comes with the kit and here we're assembling the servo saver which is gonna cause problems later on [Music] but we're all plugged in and it all works so we've got steering acceleration but I'm gonna shorten these wires a little bit just to tidy it up a little bit just to check if it still works not really sure what's going on but it's extreme Servo angle I tried putting it on that side but it's not enough room so I guess that's how it's gonna have to say and here I'm fitting the tires which we all have to use boom oh just found out the mistake here instead of that oh am I supposed to put that one on boom [Music] right let's see if it works [Music] I haven't got much steering I think we're gonna struggle getting this around the track but all the signs it's gonna be all right I think this is the most simple and basic RC car that I've ever built not really great for handling and performance but for beginner or if you want some really close racing perfect right let's get your body on there and then go racing so the body that comes with car is an Audi V8 here's the body here I think most of the other guys are going to be running this body but the rules say that we can change the body but it has to be a time of your body so I've got this body here a Porsche GT3 and I don't think that the Porsche body is going to give it really much of an advantage because look at that it's almost exactly the same height if anything it's a little bit taller and the speed sausage I struggled cutting out some of the lexan some of you guys in the comments and I'm playing with children scissors however these are actually licks and scissors and I even tried a brand new pen I still struggled so anyway Penny said use a Stanley knife so I'm going to give it a go he said to kind of lightly score it and it should just unfold oh my wait I'm gonna sort of slip with this go up the bloody body like that exactly like that that is exactly why I don't use knives look it does give a nice clean cut but that's why I don't do it look because you can move away from the line now I've got to try and get it back to where I will make you want to miss of this now back to the scissors foreign for some reason not so easy next up I'm gonna make the house we Mount the body then we're going to apply the Window mask key up the surface of the bodies and the paint's got somewhere to stick to then degrease it all then paint it red then back at his white to make the red pop more then we can peel off the protective film from the body and deploy all the stickers that's fitting pretty good but the back wheels are not really lining up but look at these fish bones we can flip them over to make it shorter wheelbase do that in a little while but anyway first I think we need some game over stickers [Music] oh look at that so now let's turn his arms around boom if you want all to take no but all the specifications and that is over on the hobby company website I'm going to put a link to that down below look at that guys we got the same Livery as the monster truck I'm going to be giving this away in the competition if you want to know more info I'm going to put a link to that down below or I'm going to explain a little bit later right let's go racing and kick some butts here we are on location got his tubers here more tubers more tubers more Troopers over there Vinnies blg y car whatever you call it oh look now we're just turned up as well look at that Charlie's sporting the merch Gavin's already cheating that must have been look he's cheated he's put an ear plug in there one more cheating like an Audi does it anytime your body was part of the wall they're all cheated so if they're cheating is helping then we're gonna put a 3s in it it'll be faster so let's have a quick practice see how these stock tires get on for the first race I want to try out the stock tires I do fill out the Arches a little bit better the car looks nicer and you know for YouTube fam now it's gonna look good than it so that on those tires is absolutely awful so we're gonna do One race on those and then we're gonna Chuck onto race tires we've got three qualifying rounds and then we've got the final foreign [Music] I think everybody else beat me in that one we're gonna get these tires off and we're gonna fit the race tires next so we're gonna be all professional put this time additive on there to give us a bit more grip came in at number five I thought it came last actually not too bad but I've got 15 laps and Vinnie got 21 naps so here we've got Gavin from RC kicks who actually put this event on some massive shout out to Gabby it'll be done to yours then totally stock no modifications whatsoever Showbox server a little bit of thick oil yeah we know we know about a silicon ear plugs in there ring and then that's what caught me out why I overdid the steering by remember anymore and then I lost a dog bone so uh yes marriage to be full but apart from that it's all right happy days so next to me on this side we have Ian and Claire's team there we go Ian's so two s lipo everything else is still have a look at Team Noah oh God know his mum in the house the viewers like to see a bit of Noah's mum Claire wants a bit of love as well there you go no dude nothing naughty people let's have a look at your build so this is a box standard tt02 I've stopped to the rules only modifications are the tires and some bearings other than that it's fully stock so if you win it's a fair win yeah Tommy also in the house I think Phil's taking it quite seriously have you done any treats on the build no any little Twigs he's got a slight Advantage because he's using the kit wheels and made it wider offset so he's got a little bit more whip are you going to be on 3s lipo though no and I'll still beat you all right we're later on if the cheaters go faster than me we're gonna go three yes I mean he's got his own signs and his own fan boys to support him laughs let's have a look at your build tires are giving me much more grip and a much better chance of keeping up with the competition however I'm having steering issues foreign [Music] [Applause] Kevin your expert opinion how was it terrible it had hands so bad it's right down the street it's just good and it goes like that it's an email because I've got a super good service we'll do that now hopefully next race at least take the servo out and we're gonna put some super glue into the servo saber to try and lock it up and hopefully we're gonna actually get a little bit of steering but then we've got to find a new excuse if we don't win [Music] Servo saver off I'll tie glue well Benny told me to hold only finish put more glue on there [Music] boom next up in the house we've got the pop along guys good fun out there today isn't it uh Cheating Heart cheating any tweaks all I've got is a fan to keep the motor cool there we go if anything it's going to drain more amps and make the car slower what about the other pop along what's your one oh as well yeah oh he's got professional radios he's got racing batteries are you gonna win I don't think I know you're watching your guys's videos you love what the video was going to win and he's winning at the minute yeah he's navigating all the traffic yeah we'll pick on him yeah he's the he's the people yeah we're back on again so before I put additive on the back and on the front it made it a bit too backhand slightly out of only ovary so now we've put additive only on the back and we're racing again so this Servo saber mod definitely helped but the servo still had demand of its own making it randomly just crash into things well that's the excuse that I was using anyway so we're up in second position with Gavin from RC kicks in first a little bit of contact there with Gavin and Noah [Music] hello is those better on that glue now it just wants to fall over anybody was we have a problem and I think it might be the servo I'm blaming the car for being crap it's probably not the card probably the servo watch this look at the wheels now that Center it never centers in the same place look it's moving by itself I'm driving this around the track and it feels like someone else is controlling it yeah oh well is what it is clearly my building skills so far superior yeah at least we've got an excuse we don't win so next up we've got the finals I think as long as we beat Phil Tommy RC will be good you only beat me that side because I broke it uh would you break I don't know the pit opinion was at least it grabs you on at least but it's just spinning on the shaft final's next we've got to try the 3s is he gonna take it we've got the disadvantage of the slow steering but it's not centering up steering but we've got an advantage of more power that is Major cheating well Gavin organize a series is it cheating to the end of the race then yeah there you go we're all official we go give John a massive shout out for putting this event on for us like what's your club name it's the Cambridge radio control circuit car club based in Milton just in the north of Cambridge just by not far from Tesco is in the community center so if you want to come and play you've got to go on so I'm gonna put links list down below head over to their Facebook group they race here every Sunday morning Sunday mornings about every other Sunday yes I might see you there at some point join the group get involved there you go the finals so we've got Vinnie in Pole Position the two pop alongs in second and third and me in fourth here we go [Music] foreign [Music] too much grip and I kept rolling over next excuse my steering the servo kept locking up it kept steering me into the wall making me crash I got to the end of the straight and it wouldn't steer sometimes it's dead sometimes it didn't it didn't send it off I know excuses but that with the car keeping rolling over I had no hope with keeping up with really under pop alongs so this is actually the first out of two finals the second final still to come and I did not actually know that at this point but I do find out in a minute so we've got a win for Vinnie second Mark pop along and Phil tomly RC come in third place me second from last so he comes second from last I think that was the Battle of survival wasn't it I think Nick this time this was going way too hot oh Jesus so we're going to go back to 2s now there we go 2s in and drive shaft back in [Music] there we go one last chance the other problem I got with mine it falls over really easy and I reckon it might actually be a disadvantage running this body so for the final we're gonna put a clear body on there it's the professional touring car drivers this looks like the grid walk from the F1 so here we go we go firing all two of two million Pole Position again the same lineup as in the first final the winner will be deemed from the best of the both finals anyway here we go [Applause] a bit of contact there from Gavin RC kicks and Ian from Claire's RCS and also Noah and Tom Lee [Music] so my car with a Volvo body is definitely handling a lot better it's not bowling over as easily but we still have that dreaded Servo problem spoke too soon tumble humble but somehow I've managed to move myself up to third position with no out in fourth tomly in fifth so there's a battle with me and now at the minute with Vinnie coming round to lap us so Vinnie gets around the outside and now I'm nice and cleanly and more Carnage for me and more blaming my servos I somehow managed to move myself back up into third position we've got Mark hop along in second and Vinnie's still in the lead the bottom of the field we have Ian from Claire's RC's not sure if this is poor driving or his wife's shoddy building skills or maybe a mixture of both and here we've got drive shafts and diff cups dropping out of cars left right and Center into the straight more steering just does not steer and crashes straight into the wall putting me down in fifth position and now we've got Carl pop along up in third position Mark pop along in second and Vinnie's still leading the field in first discovered and Phil battling it out and all the hole over for Gavin it's like a destruction Darby oh my steering is getting worse and worse and when I was going down the straight no matter what I did every single lap it just automatically steered itself left and into the wall even if I stayed all the way to right all it kept wanting to do is just smash into that wall nothing I could do there's absolutely nothing all I could do was complain so we're coming up to the end of the race now we've still got minion first Mark in second car in third gathering in four filling fifth me 56th now what in seven for last but not least Ian from Claire's RC's and guys so many drive shafts have fallen out of these cars there's drive shafts lit it all over the track everywhere some cars two-wheel drive some cars three-wheel drive but we had a good laugh and that's all that counts ha um here we go the winner are you a proud man thank you massive congratulations to Ben evil win in the YouTube race do you want to say any words Kev so I've just taken out this dodgy Orion Vortex Servo and replaced it with a Traxxas one also I got rid of the servo saver and replaced it with a solid arm it makes a steering a lot more direct this super glue in here it came apart and what happened is it never sent us up right so now look perfect I worked perfect now same it didn't go that well earlier we would have beat them all you know I was complaining earlier about how bad this car is but now with a Servo sorted it is not actually that bad and you're not really going to get anything much cheaper when you want to go racing so for some nice close cheap racing perfect and by the way one of you viewers can win this car so if you click on the link in the description box all the details for that is going to be there thank you
