Just a couple of random thoughts......
I need one of these. I have never been able to fully embrace front wheel drive on a road race car. But, I wonder about racing it in our silver can M chassis class. We use Tamiya slicks as spec tires. These don't have a lot of grip so they may make a rear wheel drive car too loose to race.
So, what other classes do we run? VTA! Full scale Trans-Am races ran two specs. American muscle cars and a smaller class that featured cars like the BMW 2002 and Datsun 240z. Can we add these to our VTA class? I know lots of us would like to run some of these import bodies in VTA. After all, it wasn't just an American muscle car class. Should be fun finding out.

Is RWD better in the Mini chassis'?
I have been looking to get an M05 to just have some fun with, but it looks like I should wait a little longer and get an M06.
What are the main differences in chassis handling between the different designs?
Thanks...

The obvious question for the m-06 is will it have the option of 1 more tooth on the pinion that the m-05? This is my opinion is what ruined the m-04, on a smooth flowing surface, the 1 extra tooth made a HUGE difference, and racing the m-04 and m-05 together really wasn't fair.
