Walid: I've tried that sleeping stuff, it's Overrated! 
Man, there's No Doubt that we had a Great time down there with ya'll, hope to race with you guys again soon! I ordered another ST-RR today for the Finals (I will shim the diffs as you & Cody schooled me to!) Thanks for getting me those parts back, wasn't in that big of a hurry, but I'll have them though! Stylz is a Great Kid & pretty much hung out with us (Mark & I) all weekend, we didn't even know we were gonna do that until we watched him run/win that race! He was on me all weekend to get one of my MP9's!!! Had I brought my 777 WC I would've given that to him (Big Bores & all), we didn't do that to get any notariaty at all, it's like I told Corey it was just good to do something good for a Great Kid as he's got enough on his plate with is family & on top of that he's an Honor Roll Student. He deserves it and more! Thanks Again Bro!

hi guys,
anyone of you ever had trouble with failing gearboxes of your MP9?
i've heard of some - indeed very good - drivers here in germany having trouble with their gearboxes failing, e.g. melting
how's that possible?
anyone?
regards,
j.

The MP9 looks really nice. I've just about pulled the trigger 2 or 3 times now. I really wish the car was around the $600.00 price point. I see A-Main had one listed on eBay, and it brought $690.00. Even though the car is top notch with no hop-ups needed, it's still priced a little too high (A-Main discount and 10% coupon included). If the car had been around $600-$650 I'd have one right now. Even though I have the cash, I just can't seem to spend that extra hundred or so on an 1/8th scale buggy. I realize that the price has dropped $50.00, but maybe I'll hold off a few months and see where we are on price.

Ever one who has ever had a diff problem in a red army car is because of lack of maintenance. Your are told to cheek the diff ever 4 to 6 tanks to make sure it still shimmed right. It 6 screws to cheek come on how bad is to do this between rounds?

if you want a setup that steers alot and has a locked in rear end try this
diffs ; 5000f, 5000c, 2000r / shocks; stock pistons 550f green springs, 350r purple springs
wide front track w/ 11 degree (pay att. to the inserts diagram)
+1 caster on the front hubs , outer hole on hubs
front shock pos./ middle hole on tower , inner hole on arm /2.5 sway bar
steering link in center hole on ackerman plate
rear hub carriers in bottom hole(different than kit says), outer hole on camber link mount, inner 3rd hole up on tower link mount , long arm inserts , wide track ,use the 3 piece hub spacers 1 medium spacer in front , 3 degree toe (upside down 3 dot up /out), 2 degree anti squat , shock mounts / one hole in on tower , outer hole on arm / 2.8mm sway bar .
front arms just above level , rear 1.5 mm higher
car changes drastically with ride heighth adj. ( kind of like the losi )
we worked hard on this setup for a while , works killer !!!!!
want to try lighter sway bars but so far this is the best setup without having to buy anything but the front springs

Ran my for the 1st time today... MAN ITS NICE... Similar to Stock, Plus Cody kings setup. Gunna do the Houston/Anziveno setup above for sure... Monty is My Man and Marcus... HE DA MAN 2.....
Is it better than my MBX5R, guess Id have ta run em side by side.. But man This Flys, Takes the Bumps better than anything else at the track today... Oh and Its The Nitro Pit so not some Tame backyard Track
May just Like Buggy wwith this One... Im a TRUGGY junkie but the MMP9 may be my new CRACK!!!
Oh here is my Ride, not bad eh......
