thanks in advance.

ps, great job mike at the carpet nats

Here in Chicago, we are planning to run the RCGT using the RCGT USA spec....that is the key, it has to be 1 of those HPI/Tamiya Race spec body...no Mazda speed 6 or R9R...etc, with HPI pattern tires and insert. The key is "SPEC".....and because of that, it is hard to find out what is good about that. Kevin K and myself will participat that class with our Mi3.5...hope summer is here soon enough so we can start testing...

For 17.5 outdoor...I will definitely go to 4.0-4.2 range final drive.

How can it be that the manufactor in UK is out of stock of the mi3.5 for weeks. Isn't it supposed to produce & sell cars

That's my thought too, popular car. It amazes me that they can sell it off at about the same prize as the orginal mi3 with additional hopups and upgrades (titanium etc..) and even pre-assembled.

MI4

thats a very trick looking car.....nice to see the chassis setup with Lipo and 5 cell in mind. It has some very cool features like the motor mount slider like on the offroad car.

If you're looking for one, Stormer Hobbies has more than 6 new mi3.5 in stock.

Hey guys,
I am dusting off my old Mi2 EC, I am going to race it on a small oval[Lame] and a nice Touring track [alot of 180's] Both will be carpet, oval foam on road will be rubber.

I was wondering if someone could give me a "general" starting setup for when I rebuild the car. Last time I raced it was on an extremely bumpy asphalt track using foams.

Thanks

Josh
