heyy you should change your stuff every year with TM to be as fast as stock mugens which are all same about years.....only a couple of new front susp. parts, and mugens are all competitive...or xrays or serps. serpent makes a new spec every year, but its not important. they still beat up the g4rs with the first serp 720, but they cant beat the first serp720-mug mtx4-nt1... with a stock g4s

Yeah, thats what they all said, then the G4 went and won the European's ...AGAIN !!! Oh and didn't you know, the G4 qualified 2nd in the worlds??

Can't remember what the cars were immediately behind but I think they were Serpent's, Mugan's and Nt1's ....lol

Oh, also, G4 British champ, how many years in a row now??? 4, 5 or is it 6 years in a row now??? Italian champs, Spanish Champs, Portugueze Champs.

I think all the other drivers out there had the option to get Mugan's, Serpent's and Nt1's too.
Lol.............like has been said. G4.....one of the best on the market right now.

And all in stock form now the G4RS is out too.

And it won't do "squat" unless more people start running them in the US. When I raced onroad at Revelation in Cali, it was semi popular (G4). I have seen its fair share at clubs in Cali, but you wont see it in a podium finish most likely due to the number of competitors chassis being entered vs the ratio of the G4 (E4 or whatever).

The 1/8th TM car looks pretty good I think. I love the chassis!

My friend,

Why do some people think the US is the Mecca of RC world? "If it doesn't do good in the US, then it probably sucks" seems to be the mentally of many. There is another world outside the US you know. They have the same choices as Americans (MTX, NT1, 720, RRR, G4) but the distribution system of TM in other countries is alot more stable and streamlined, that is why it is more popular out there. If only 1 of 20 racers have a G4, then it is only a 5% chance of winning. In Mugen country (southern cali) there is probably 40-50% ratio of MTX4 vs other brands, so they have a greater chance of winning. As you said, it is all probability.

Oh no, thats right............
I mean, it never won the 200mm nitro Midwest series champ' in 2006
Neither did it win the Midwest open champ' the same year.

It also did not qualify 6th (Mike Blackstock........you may have heard of him?)
at the Great Lakes Challenge last year. For saying there was only three G4's there......not bad effort.

Heart of America series, G4 (Mark Angotti !) came third in the championship.
Again only 2 or 3 cars in the series so not bad eh Mark !??

Unless I'm mystaken, and these races didn't take place in America?

I will admit, there has not been as much as there could have been soley because of distribution problems and not many running the car!

Also, just because the car has done so well everywhere else and not in the states does not mean the car isn't any good?!

Renault cars and Engines are some of the best in the world, (look at F1 for Ex yet they don't do alot over here in the States.

Are you sure you should be talking like this?

I am afraid, home land security is already reserving you a seat on a deportation flight...

It's soo refreshing to see an American who dares to look beyond his plate.
