Diameter of the stinger hole dictates whats legal or not, here's the part number for a pipe that is legal and fast (NOV52624)

yup I have a MTX3 and when I raced there once I was the ONLY one there with one. Unfortunately I was late a few weekends ago and missed registration during the road course track.

Do you know if there is anyone else with a MTX3? I was going to sell mine because there was no local support that I knew off. If you do PLEASE let me know.

What did you use to race before the MTX3? Have you figured out which shore foams you'll be using? From what I remember it's pretty low bite and very unforgiving walls.

I plan on being there Sat...I may have to register early and come later...so I won't have any practice time

ya i raced there for 2 years and i have been runnig a tamiya 414 in 4wd pro and i have been domanting i just got a mtx3 and i am planing to race it where do u live

puma1824

I live in Columbia...I plan on practicing in a parking lot by my place tonight...I saw a 414 run in Glen Burnie about a month ago when HTUSA had switched to road couse. From what I remember it was pretty fast. Did you have a one-way? Do many people run the 414? IF not maybe that was you.

Anyways...have you noticed in the past few weekends if anyone else had a MTX-3?

I actually switched to a front diff because when I ran the Oval track it seemed pretty tight and the Road Course seems even tighter.

ya it was probley me with the 414 there is a guy with a evo but i kill him. no i have a center one way i am running a diff in the front. did u ever run a mtx2 because i seen somebody run one last year no i never seen anyone with a mtx3 but there is a fast guy with a reflex if u dont make it in time u can call and regester

puma1824

Nope never ran a MTX2...when it was the Oval Course I was the ONLY one there with a MTX3. I lost an outdrive and dogbone and had to search all over until I found them since they don't have spares there.

There are a lot of people running Turbo engines and NTC3s but I had no problem keeping up with them with just my MTX-3 and MT12 (non-turbo). My biggest problem was the front one-way because of the small track. Hopefully the front diff will help. You running the stock one-way?

I'm pretty new to the RC racing world...this year was the first time I really raced.

hmm...maybe if more people start running the MTX-3 locally it just might have to stay I REALLY don't want to give it up. I actually have a R40 on the way just because of parts support.
