I don't think it will. I believe it would not sit well even with a few modifications.

Why did you cut the nose off

Looks like a formula 1 without the front bumper

Hey it still looks good and I like the O.S. engine with the alluminum head too. Very nice ..thx for posting.

Any idea how much it weighs with everything on?

Are the sway bars the same from the 777 to the MP9? Also is all the shock pistons the same that come in the kit? If so where can you get the option pistons that are stated in Cody King's set-up sheet?

Thanks

Thanks PitPop....I want to make sure I have a good base to start from for the next two weekends out at Rev. New car and two big races (for me) back to back.

I just finished building her last night and will be out at Rev tomorrow night for a little practice.

Thanks again for your help....

your paintjob doesn't look like it's your first attempt.

You seem to be making a living out of it.....

i'll be damn proud with such paint details.

Thanks man, by "first attempt" I meant my first time not doing a once color wonder..but still

I need some setup help, so calling all k-drivers...

Heres my local track, http://www.pcrcraceway.com/Track_Pictures.html

I've got the baseline setup that that give you when you build the car, and i've got a copy of cody kings setup, but a few of our local drivers told me not to run his setup for our track. Not really sure what that means, but it's all i've got to go off.

Has anyone used an Integy 1/8 offroad setup station before? I've got one, but I cant really get it figured out, seems like theres alot of slop in the way it work and not very accurate.

Also, I dont like the way Kyosho just gives you a measurement to go off of for camber links... What degree camber are people running, and how much toe in the front?

Anyways, any help is much appreciated, i'm sorta new to racing, so whatever setup is on my car is what I will be learning with, so I dont really have enough experience to figure things out myself

Allumina-I would run Cody's World's setup first. From what I hear he has so much time on the car, the setup has to be nearly perfect. As for it not working on your track? I don't see why not. Diff oils, links, shocks, everything looks like it would work on your track well. I have found Cody's setups are great if you need to go back to a standard setup. If you are still unsure if you want to run his setup maybe ask Tyler Vik; he won the Pro Series race there with the MP9 I think.
