Hey Guys,
What ASC body and motor mount version (or is there only 1?) is Philip Ng running in 90mm class?

Philip NG has been test muling a 90mm with RM reconfigurable mount with the new GT-3 Porsche and that thing is on rails.
Fastest rear mount is 90mm reconfigurable RM...the PN HM mount in 90 can also be fast but reconfigurable will edge it out I think.
like Phillip NG for fastest results we run AA arm even with narrow front GT3's, fits just fine with -1 offset wheels...GT1 is wide front so we can run 0 offset (required for December race) or if there was no limit you can go to +1 or wider easily.

Best over all ASC (or white body) 90mm is probably Porsche 911 GT-1, with new GT-3 / old GT3 & new Miata and F40 being close seconds.

Busy practice session yesterday ! 
19 different cars rolled on that EVA throwing down some close as well as impressive fast laps in all classes but specially Super Stock...I'm awaiting confirmation to see if either Grant or Paul was running Paul's car when it hit that 6.739, Yikes! I hope it was Grant or else we'll have to run "sporty" to get by Paul 
Lot's of momentum heading towards the race this weekend
On Sunday Race Format will be 1 qualification for all 3 classes for the fastest lap followed by triple A-Mains / SS will have 2 sorts and Scoring will be like races before.
Nice to have Dennis visiting from Brazil and running with us, too bad he couldn't extend his stay for the race, didn't realize his fast laps until looked at the pic

MR-015 will not be able to hang but a properly tuned MR-02 can definitely still be competitive in the 90mm class. We're running the wider Bodies like the GT1 & GT3's (2005 & new) and all of those will fit MR-02's width which is same as the PN2.5 chassis we run.
Done!
With PN2.5R chassis you can use any Rx and stand alone esc, the servo runs off a stand alone servo board. The quality of the electronics and final performance is just as good if not better ( specially esc's) ...at the 2017 PNWC many ( i think majority) A- main mod & pan drivers were running stand alone electronics and various radios, with Sanwa being a pre popular choice etc.
The slowest PNWC sanctioned class is stock with either 70T brushed or 3500kv BL motor and must run on Nimh Batts.
If you meant at our club races then 90mm class will be the slowest which is basically stock with the additional allowance of lithium batts for 3500kv with spec gearing of 53/8 to balance out the speed.
Just to clarify Post #1568 is our club track ( the F1 video above that is somewhere else). Don't know the # of RCP tiles off hand but measurements are close to 27ft in length x app 17ft width.
