i have own 2 kyosho mfr and this new kyosho dmt ve chasis & suspension are the same w/ mfr this kyosho monster are underated but in reality they are the best MT'S out in the market today in terms of quality and affordability. the very significant in performance of this mfr & dmt is the way they handle well in all types of terrain they are so gracefull not even my friends revo can outmatch my mfr!

nice! the mfr is a really nice truck. i had one but i got rid of it cause i was going all electric. these are very under rated trucks. i took mine out yesterday for the first time and i am just making smal changes to it and getting a mamba max pro esc and thats about it.

I'm thinking about getting this truck for a custom project I want to build and I need help verifying the width of the truck.
On the Kyosho site it says it's 385mm wide but I just saw a video(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5gG-HmUQ0g) that says the width is 411mm which is no small difference. For my project I'd like for it to be closer to 385 than 411.
If someone is willing to help I'm looking for two dimensions:
1. Overall width from one tire to the other
2. Overall width from end on one wheel axle to the other wheel axle.
And if you're wondering what I'm planning on doing, I plan on stretching the chassis to create a 1/5 scale brushless car which I'm hoping will be well under 10lbs.

carcrazy699 has anyone changed the shock fluid to be alittle stiffer? it feels like it has stock 35wt in it and it seems like it bottoms out to easy. also what about diff oils?
yep stock shock set-up was super soft very first thing i noticed out of box
