Andrew, yes I think Paul has cracked the code I was going to start my nephew in a 4 but after the nats with no issues with the new brace brought a 5 this after noon from Jeff and guess what it will have the new brace on it even Greg is now a happy man bailey making the A final with no stripping all week end so looks like the Aussies have the solution all worked out :D well I'm convinced it looks that way .. Cavey..

hey cavey thats great to hear about your nephew, looks like there will be some newer blood at the club soon?

Yea build starts this weekend start him of in gt but like Joel I think it will be hard to keep him there for long he's been thrashing the arse off the buggy I bought him last Christmasand pretty excited about racing .. All I can say he probably also thrash his uncle before too long already empting the pockets :ha::ha:

now you will know how mutch it costs to pay for the dam kids when they are not yours but i was rapped with the result at nationals i will have to admitt that bailey can drive now but has a long way to get as good as jeff lap after lap on the black stuff but we HAVE A GOOD ///MUGEN MTX5 NOW SO NOW I WILL HAVE TO STOPBAGING IT///it was in the same condition when we finished as when we started not right but nealey just have to get my head around set up

greetings

items are ready for shipment at least in the us. have your lhs order from mugenracing as yesterday was sent the new items availability email!

Thanks for the heads up

mtx-5R when???

Does anyone else think it's odd that Mugen offer such limited spring selection?, I'm finding most electric cars offer such a wide tuning set of springs, yet with the Mugen your stuck with such limited factory springs?

While on that note, I tried softer rear springs on my five the other night, and I quite liked the result, it was very drivable on what is a fairly bumpy track.

I agree that there is a limited amount of usable mugen springs, i have tried the harder spring up front and softer in the rear. Didnt like that, even though that works on other cars. I always end up going back to the grays all around. Softer springs up front with high traction is also kind of nice.

What happened to the pic of the new toys?

greys we haven't used anything like that since we have no vht on track we could use white all round and 45 foams ///now light blue or purple and 40 fomes is about all you can get to work on mtx5

What I noticed on this particular thread more so than others, a lot of information is put out there then edited out. What kind of cr@p is this, I'm starting to believe this thread is bogus!
