I raced the Agama Spring Challenge yesterday at Revelation Raceway and happened to be a turn marshall during KThatcher's Main. His buggy really does appear to be working well with that setup and he drives it hard on a somewhat loose track and likes to go big on the jumps.

The track was developing some ruts and at one point late in the race KT was going big and caught one on the face of the big step-up "booter" jump they call Mount Revelation, and he did a complete back-flip almost 20' in the air and landed it on the wheels without missing a beat. That was the sickest jump I've ever seen during a race.

I never could get my MBX6R setup the way I had hoped for so I had to just move on, however I wish I would have had a chance to try KT's latest setup.

I wouldnt risk it might be a good idea to check the output voltage on your receiver as some lower the output voltage you may not need a regulator

Default Cool

Great idea guys. I just got used to using channel locks on top with a hammer. I never thought to use anti sieze. Duh. I'm doing it. Thanks for the tip.

On KThachers setup,back on page 1098,the rear springs are listed as 8.75!
There are neither black or silver springs with this rating. Are they supposed to be 8.5 medium as the fronts or 8.25 hard? Thank you.

Does anyone know a good website to order the M2C hinge pin kits? $60 for just the rear seems a bit steep.
