Default Mp10 TK12 question

Do you folks think the long shock towers and bigger shocks will be a necessary upgrade on Mp10 TK12

just the color. Kanai loves green, it’s his signature color. Same oil as the blue.

TKI2’s are in stock at Kyosho America. Hopefully some will make it to your local hobby shop next week.

Hi guys, I just got a brand new MP-10, I haven’t driven buggy in years so I’m feeling a bit new at it lol, done a lot of truggy racing, I drive on a pretty bumpy loose track, can I get any advice on a decent setup for bumpy tracks and any upgrades that may help aswell? Right now I have 7k 5k 3K diff oils, and 600 front shock oil and 425 rear shock oil with the standard blue springs in the rear and grey in the front.
Thanks in advance for any advice 😁👍🏼

My MP10 really handles great. However the track I run on is high bite and not so bumpy. I keep my setup on So Dialed and have their app on my phone in order to be able to record changes as I make them.

I would recommend going lighter on the shock oils- something like 500 front and 350 rear, maybe even blue spring up front for bumpy conditions.
you should be fine with the diffs.
less rear toe in the rear helps calm it down also.

J.Whiting, would you still run 5 5 3 in diffs in new car for a loose bumpy track? Also would you run emulsion shocks and order the older caps with bleeders? Thanks..

yes i like 5-5-3 in low bite and 7-7-4 in high bite tracks.. i like the emulsion shocks 99% of the time unless i have big jumps or need lift on a jump face to clear a jump. i would order the IFW469 for emulsion shocks.. they seem to bleed the air pocket out better.. if you run bladders then run the kit shock or the ifw469.. the ifw469 caps are a running production change to make the top loop thicker to last longer.

would some of us sportsman racers notice a difference in the buggy handling, with the shock upgrade?
