i sold my MTX3 last month, i wasn't running nitro that much anymore, but the MTX4 seems to be tempting me to run nitro again!
so, how does the MTX4 handle? turns-in harder? more on power? is it more stable? etc?

MTX-4 on track
I saw a certain Southern California based Mugen driver at Crystal Park with his MTX-4 yesterday and the car looks good. Much more adjustable than the 3.

Need to remove only belt and belt tensioner and of course the engine chassis monut screws.
No need to remove the chassis stiffener as you slide the engine in sideways...
Am i right ?

At our local track, we have seen lap times improving and contiune to drop.
Personally i feel that the 4 is as good as the RRR in terms on cornering speed or maybe better.. but i am abit biased so..
