So what sort of car hauler bags do people use for these cars along with the remotes? I've been trying to find something that isn't huge but big enough for two cars and two radios.
Any suggestions?
the best one I've been able to find was the Jconcepts small hauler, but it is still a little larger than I would like.

It is a PIA tracking this stuff down but between EMU's help and looking at hundreds of pictures online you get to figuring out what you need and then tracking it down in some small hobby store Asia is kind of fun ;-).
Cheers,

Here is a picture of my SWB car currently running 86MM. That is an Atomic RM motor mount. It looks like the one you are looking at just has a different chassis plate but the rest is the same.
BTW,Kyosho support is pretty good. I had a couple questions on the MZW216 and they got back to me with good info in less than 24 hours

That should work it looks like. I believe the triangle plate is the same that comes with the MZW216 that I am using and it allows you to go to 86MM if you want. I took a quick look for a MZW216 and they are getting hard to find and expensive. I think I paid $14 for mine shipped.

Ok. I’ll probably order it today. It’s hard to find stuff for the RM. I’d like to keep the upgrades to minimum on this car. Only few races left. I know this isnt the cure all, I think I’m approaching the limits of box stock. I’ve with the 8t pinion, I’m stuck in the 9.8-10.2 range. Rest of class is in the 9.0-9.3

There is not a lot of stuff out there for RM at all. All the stuff I have bought for my RM car has been NOS but it has been fun tracking it down. I also found the RM to be super fun to drive and pretty darn quick, holding my lap record for a few weeks but I could see on a big track that there may be issues with maximum attack on the corners with a RM.
Give the PN70 another try, I have one that I have run 1000's of laps and it actually freed up and lost a lot of the drag brake effect.I have been good about cleaning it and using the Bachmann's motor lube, it feels much more like a regular Mini-Z motor now.

Maybe at our next Friday night practice I’ll try the PN motor. I had easy a few thousand laps on the last motor. And it never felt any different. I’ve watched another struggle with it in his. Doesn’t seem to want to believe it. But it’s clearly locking up the rears every time he lets off the throttle

Anyone tested the P1 GTR body for modified ?
It foes look kind of fast, and I've been running the r8 for the last 4-5 years. Feel it is time to try something new...
