Yea I don’t want to find out. I’m going to use some UMHW thin tape to see if that helps and I’ll be tweaking the upstops to see how it goes.

Apart from getting scraped up, I think it's whether an alloy chassis can flex enough to cope with low grip. I know that Mugen will have done their research, but in the UK we have low grip asphalt (in general). I guess we'll see, I'm transferring some low grip settings to the standard asphalt set up sheet - like roll centre, different oil etc.

Car is really nice, all the rod ends thread in nicely - no need to run them on a drill to break them in, just a bit of chapstick and good. Some really cool features on this chassis. Nice to see specs on body mounting in the manual- made it easy.
Racing this weekend on a semi bumpy, medium grip asphalt track, really interested to see how she performs.

always interesting to see what platform the guy used BEFORE beating everyone...

I run some protection on the bottom even with the upstops set. Curbing, dots, or crashes will still hit the chassis bottom.

After I ran yesterday I had no chassis wear indications on it from don’t act with the actual track surface. Just minor knicks I assume from the corner dots.

They work excellent. I was initially worried about the overall reduction in wheel travel, but it didn’t hurt it at all IMO.


Cornerspeed and steering is excellent. Really impressed with the car and it’ll just get better from here with more track time.

It's a fast platform that's for sure. You can really tell when Jacob runs his mtc2r vs the mtc3. Hopefully they start popping up soon.

You'll be seeing them popping up very soon! We are a mugen dealer now and was told their first shipment in the US is due in late this week or early next.

But I'll have 3 more kits today and more parts with that being said.
