MTX Pro
Just finished running my Pro this weekend.
Car still needed some work, but managed to almost equal my quickest time and run close to the quickest of the day.
Only things that are changed are :
-Teflon Pads
-Serpent 1/8th Servo Saver
-50,000k in rear (will go up to 100k)
-Camber Link rear out to fullest
Stock setup works great, don't think the car will do to well on short - medium tracks with not much grip.
Here are some pics :

Having said that, I did run a friends Pro with the standard Pads, extremely difficult to drive as the brakes lock up too many times, you need to get the teflon pads from the word go.

Novarossi will never show us his face. He's probably in some sort of witness protection program or he thinks we'll all fly to Sydney and hunt him down or something. The most you'll see is his hand (maybe) in those pics above.

I can only realize his light blue wrench which I think it is novarossi's favourable tool. I can see this wrench on most of his pictures posted LOL

With a track like that, all you gotta do is mash the throttle down. You can take the brake out and save weight.
