Speedtech must have just got them in, I check all the usual hop-up shops and stormer had 1 in stock. I could have ordered from Asia and paid as much for the chassis to get it here fast, but got lucky.
How in the world does the bumper brace work?

hello all, i am looking at buying myself a Pro4 (the original) and i was wondering if you guys could point out flauts with the car so that i'm prepared and make a informed choice. i will be racing on carpet with 28mm foams, so any carpet info would be wonderful. thanks for any help you can offer.

I hear if you get the 3mm chassis, TC3 front bones and double ball diffs you'll be pretty dialed.

Hi Sryder,

If you're planning to get a Pro4, you might want to consider getting the 1.1 version or the 2005 edition. Because the 1.1 have better plastic bevel gears and the 2005 edition have aluminum bevel gears. Also, the 2005 edition is hopped-up with many parts already.

hey everyone,

a couple of quick things i need help with.

hopefully you can help me haha.

the thing is i've always had xrays and i'm used to tuning belt drive to handle and get going well etc and when i go to a track i can usually pick what needs to be changed and it works.

i raced my Pro4 for the first time a few weeks ago and it understeered to the s**ter. obviously i'm new to the car and as such have no idea where to start lol.

i was wondering if there are any general guides in setting up the pro4 compared to belt drive (my xray)???

any help would be appreciated.

Thanx,

Robbie
