The brink of sanity, maybe.

I have one, with that body. I ran it for a few laps the week you missed.

Are they discontinued? Or just out of stock? The chassis looks kind of neat. Bring it next time.

I'm confused, as usual. Does the M06R comes with tires or not? Towers description says it does, RCMushroom says not:

http://www.rc-mushroom.com/product_i...is-kit-p-25929

It looks like the MR2 bodies are still available, so maybe I'll do the M06 and the MR2 body.



Oh yes I did.

They are out of stock. It's a pretty popular M class chassis.

The M06R does not come with tires. That mr2 will be sweet. You have to weeks to get it going.

For those are are interested I just posted the few pictures that I took on Sunday. They are on the carpet challenge thread.

For the first time Zack, you've found me speechless - I've no idea.

Just thought it looked awesome.

That car after doing some research is a home made conversion based on a production conversion from a company named "Field One". From what I gather, they are out of business, but made a very cool product.

go here: http://rc-dd-yokohama.cocolog-nifty....ini/index.html

Scroll to the bottom of the page and you will see the process and some cool vids.

And another pick of the home made rig:

Compared to the Field One kit, this has a 225mm wheelbase. Although, I'm now starting to work on my own 210mm wheelbase chassis.
