Tamiya TT-02B Project: Ball Bearings Speed Test & Drag Tests! (Episode 2B)

Speed Testing and Drag Testing a Tamiya TT-02B 1/10 4WD Buggy RC Car. Let's measure the top speed and acceleration of an almost stock unit with a fresh set of Tamiya ball bearings. Any faster than with the stock plastic bushings?

The ball bearing set was kindly sponsored by EuroRC, free for review and tests. They supply a great variety of different ball bearing sets and hop-up options for Tamiya models and many other RC cars.
