I took it before the new website come alive. I hope they will make a new factory support part or make the settings sheets available on a centralised database.

Drove an MP9 a couple days ago and got to work on it as well. Absolutely loved it. Trying to get my MBX6 to handle like one.

Have you given any thought to the MOOS Racing carbon fiber chassis?

I think Carbon fiber chassis and nitro power don't mix

I love the hard chassis lasts forever, easy a year or two you can put on it racing every weekend or so.

that's on the really heavy side... is that including fuel (100 gr)?

The lunsford turnbuckles save weight, can't tell you how much, didn't weigh them. You can also use the Kyosho Titanium screw kit, item IFW411.

My car is race ready (without fuel) 3240 gram. I used titanium turnbuckles and screws, no switch (thats 15 gram) and no mudguard on the rear arms and no shockboots. Also a 1700 mah lipo and an Orion engine / pipe.

i recently purchased the 2mm offset rear hubs. i noticed the instructions said to turn arm insert so hub closer to diff housing. with regular hubs the insert was the opposite way. anyone have any insight on these hubs? i had the previous regular aluminum hubs but bent those rather quickly

i just put lunsfords tie rods on my mp9 tki last week, they are about a gram less each, so you save some weight. my mp9 with half a tank of fuel is 3400g. thats aka tires and wheels, life battery, and the rest is stock
