Originally posted by Motorman MTX 2 owners. It would appear that the MTX3 rear uprights will fit on the MTX2 giving it the rear bite and roll center it was always lacking in the rear. MTX2's arent dead yet you just could never jack the upper arm high enough to allow you not to have to run 4 degrees of camber from hell. I have a full kawahara car and hate to give up on it yet as it will make a good outlaw car. also the other way round so MTX3 can use 2 hubs for rubber racing. though i have chopped my 3 hubs and can now use spacers as i wish |
MTX3
i also heard that the 2speed shaft can be used on the 2 so we can take advantage of the 2 shoe clutch and the 42 spur gear ,can someone confirm this please

Originally posted by jason102276 motorman have you had any luck trying to lighten the drivetrain on your mtx-3? is it true the mtx-3 is heavier than other touring cars? i cant think of anywhere to save weight without spending a fortune on titanium RS4-2- 3.72 lbs w/radio gear MTX2- 4.15 lbs w/ radio gear MTX3- 3.80 lbs bone stock w/ radio gear The RS4 & MTX2 are nowhere close to stock so I'm not sure what they weighed out of the box. I wanted to weigh my MRX-3 also, but it's in pieces!!!! So I'll have to get that later. |
so how close to the roar minimum is it?
is it possibly the lightest of all touring cars? beside the hpi |
has anyone found somewhere to get really large size clutch bell gears for large size tracks that fit the mugen centax

Originally posted by Corse-R I weighted my car and is well under the 1700grams limit, put without problems my KO electrical switch and Failsafe and some ballast on the radio battery and I'm on the edge (need 10 grams more for peace of mind). Read previously that Manti weighted their car and got 1660 grams with all titanium and some aftermarket parts ready to run (without fuel). mine wont be under weight with rubber tyres on :D |
cinci sydrome is a scary thing i was there and it was awful how slow the mtx-2 looked on the straight getting blown away by everything else
i just want to be better prepared if it ever came time to run there again which i might do this summer if they have a good trophy race i am only a 8 hour drive away i think i need more engine rpm also sounds like we are going to have to add weight maybe ill save my money instead of buying titanium pivot balls |
If I converted this right (used a conversion program, so blame that):
RS4-2- 1388 grams MTX3- 1418 grams MTX2- 1549 grams w/ transponder All cars empty tanks w/ radio gear, & new tires. How can they be that far under weight??? |
try using another scale just to make
sure. I have a scale but it measures in oz. 61.8 oz. compared to the nitro tc3 wich weights 59.1 oz. both with out body. |
