Just a quick question to you all. Is everybody running the stock throttle/brake linkage on the MP9? Or has anybody used anything else?

You might need to shim the axles, or replace the camber link plastic or balls. Do you have the aluminum pivot balls, or steel?
Mr. Paul you used to run the long green springs at the rear..And you had about 123mm droop.. Now i see that you run only medium blue..is this a better setup?

I think its a little too much beening that all the plastic parts are the old version by looking at the tag. And the chassis has quite amount of run time on it. Shoot for $525 My 2cents

the tail end of the chassis measures 2.75mm. So maybe that means its shot after the 4-5 club races and nationals. deeje, I really think you need to stop badmouthing kyosho anodizing quality.

transplantforlife, you run a kyosho? I will be at raceworld in indiana saturday. will have it there and we can make something work out.

It looks like the brake rotors on the new car are a darker color and are not vented. Is this a different material. Composite maybe? Anyone know for sure? Any ideas?

TKI had the surface machined and drilled out (13g / pair)

SE had the surface machined only (17g / pair)

TKI2 do not seem to have the surface machined (they are a tad bit thicker and heavier @ 20g / pair)
