Nitro Rat, if your keen like Braz and myself, it is possible to build in a night, but if you take a little more time you wont have as many little tiny things wrong. When are you getting it?

Please stop using obscene words that start with k my ears are young and very sensitive......lol....Go the 4 mate, much more forgiving car and easier to get emergency parts for.

I have both... and my opinion is... get the Vone RRR Evo Team edition. both cars, the mtx4r and the RRR evo are forgiving cars. The mtx-4r with the new lower front arm has become a very weak point. I have seen so many cars break from this part its not even funny. Honestly, I would say the RRR is easier to get a good setup for it to dial in and drive the way you want it to drive. I tested my RRR today for the first time, and I was always ontop of the red and white bumps that are on each turn, because with the MTX-4, I had to anticipate the turn and start moving slowly into the turn and with the RRR it just digs in.

Honestly, check what your local track is running, if it is RRR, get the RRR. if it is MTX-4, get the MTX4... If it is G4 or 720, get a RRR or Mtx-4

I prefer the Mtx-4 I have not tried the updated front a-arms. The mtx-4 does what ever I need it to do. But run what you have the best support for.

Race you later

I can honestly say i havent broken a new arm yet.....and i one rather large accident that i was sure broke something, but nothing. As far as support goes in australia, Mugen is by far and away the easiest.

I can say after running both cars, I am faster with the Kyosho car. I have run both cars in Ohio, Texas, California, and Here in Vegas and have gone faster on every track since moving to the Kyosho car.

The clock doesn't lie.
