uhhhmm,iam not biased ive got the evo3 s and the 414m2 wcr and i reckon if tamiya carried on developing it it will b better.
if i didnt want to race and damage my 414 then i wud most deafinetly race it over the evo3 s.
any way rick you gonna race your evo3 s at the brca nationals?
tamiya hasnt got a uk team for the nationals have they?

i think your suppose to gear a belt higher then the shaft since the belt doesnt create as much friction as gears
i dunno how hi you'll have to try that out yourself
just go up lil by lil

i tried a 120t spur before but it wasnt as fast (both acceleration & top speed) compared to 112t.

marvi: tanx, bt i tried that when we ran yday, mas mabagal pa rin ung 414 compared to my tc3, although i was using a p2k2 last night, anyway i'll try the gear ratio u suggested with my mvp.
calvin: tanx 4 d info.
fuk wrx: what gearing and what motors do u use when u run ur 414? by the way, the track i ran in last night was a very small and technical track with a very short straight. tanx

need advice...
what's the difference btw the 414M, WE, and MII?
is it still worth getting a used 414M now?
or should i wait for a MII to come up for sale?
comparing the 414M to a fully hopped up TA04R?
which should i go for if they are the same price?

Pareng evaa,
I have a 414M2 WRC and I have ran it in stock, 19 and mod. I usually go 120 to 125 on the spur, 33 to 36 on the pinion for a Monster stock which has high rpm. You can use this as a base then change the pinion depending on the motor and track. You might also want to check the drivetrain and bearings wether they are binding.
On another note, do you guys have any problems with the delrin outdrives breaking easily or notching too often? How did you guys come around this? I was thinking of dremelling this down and putting a blade on the CVD.

anyone know where i can buy the lightweight bulkheads? i know steve (speedtechrc) carries the ssg stuff. i want to buy the lightweight bulkheads and see if there is a difference.
also, i saw Ling Kang Tong run his 414M as an SS chassis and he used the MR-S racing body at the last TCS. has anyone else tried this? he used only the front arms. he also said using the rear arms made the car too twitchy. i doubt this will be TCS Nats. legal tho, although he has won a few TCS events already. btw. he placed second in GT1 with his 414M-SS chassis. (it was a great battle too!) Ling if your reading this, can you email me your set up. I like the way the SS chassis run..and id like to convert my MII into an SS chassis. Plus i like how the MR-S body looks and performs.
last, ultimatehobbies has the 414MII on sale for $219.. i might build one that has all the ssg/lightweight bulkheads. anyone do this yet?
