Does anybody else find it odd that they would add unsprung weight?

Not at all. Unsprung weight has been used in many forms of racing.

Having had the honor of trying this mount out in beta staging, I can say its the best mount I have used to date for the mugen platform.

It's the best mount I have used to date as well! Although it's the only motor mount I've ever ran.

I would not advice the extended mount if your racing on bumpy track. I changed from the long to the short front brace this weekend and the car was alot better on a bumpy track.

Talking Mugen MBX6T
Soooooo...

I was running a werks .28 in my Mugen MBX6T. I stripped the crank. Go figure. Never did that before.

So, I would like to know what you folks are using for an engine in the truggy. I am concerned about weight.


I have a Nova Rossi P5LXT Houston moded to put in, but, I wanted a backup engine for the truggy. Any suggestions.

How is the Nova Rossi Plus 28 7T??

the numbers are right. but overdrive (42-12) is actually a underdrive. You put that in the rear gearbox, so the front end gets overdrive compared to the rear end.
