shock tower
i ve been racing 4 over 2 years mtx-3 now the 4 and have yet brake a front shock tower. sounds like you need to back off the trottle just a bit. no pain no gain.

I have been thinking of making the rear shock tower 6mm with two skyline shock towers... Do you guys think it may be too much?

Riketsu: The front shock tower, I had broke 2 of these at the winternats against those famose STEEL boards, but P-Dub racing http://www.pdubracing.com/products.htm helped out with a new front foam bumper. Since then, I hadn't had a problem. I had made 4mm ones and also if you go thicker than 4mm in the rear, forget about the tower breaking, you will break everything else on the car first.

Hello rcfoolz, I didn't see a bumper for the mtx4, and was wondering if you were using the mtx3 bumper,thank you in advance.

I stripped my first gear (2nd 53t) the other day (one that came with the kit) lasted 4 months of racing and practice
get the steel pinions last for ages and make the spurs last longer aswell
