didnt hear a price, with the buggy m spec even taking it apart and changing the setup,diffs, it cuts the build time in half.

on the caster, if you move the upper arms forward and take away caster the truck will gain steering entering the corner but will loose some on exit. you can cheat this by going up on the front diff oil so the front end pulls the truck off the corner but with the thicker oil rotation will be slower in the center of the corner. most of us are running the a arms in the middle upper and lower. on a slow,tight track you can move the upper shock location out 1 hole from center to gain steering entering the corner. i have the truck setup pretty much stock but the diffs are at 7 7 7. ive tried alot of combos with diff oils/springs/shock oil/toe blocks/arm loc/bars, the diffs really made the truck very easy to drive with steering and just like the car 5 5 5 it squares up and comes off the corner.

Got some pics of my body for my MBX6T today from Paint Monster Air Brushing. Since everyone calls them a Mooogen I kinda went with it.

Here are the pictures:

Default Quality of the M-Spec

It seems like you guys take diff building on the Mugens very serious. I wonder if the M-Spec was built with the same amount of TLC?

Is the current trend, for racers, to strip them completely down and rebuild the whole car?

It's what alot of people do. I know when I buy a kit I strip it down in key areas to make sure everything is right. When I worked at a hobby store it was very rare a vehicle had zero issues out of the box. What I mean buy that is diffs filled right, shocks filled right, no broken parts out of the box, no missing parts, etc.

might be a bit early to ask, but is the only difference between the Kit and M-spec is M spec being pre-build. Any difference in parts?

i like the moooogen painted body shell will stick out very nicley on the track

cautiobn should be taken just incase you decide to pull to the side and start grazing the edge of the track part way through a final mate

thick oil in the back 20 000~30 000 run run thick oil in the centre and 20 000 and i would say 10 000 or 7000 in the front should get you drifting
