It's just Kris Moore sitting at Paul Coleman's pit table and having a chat.
.....and that car definetly is a Hobao/OFNA Hyper GPX4.
I am wondering how Paul got that new Mega engine though.

Been wondering why Mugen couldn't get any MTX-3's in the top 10, especially with Mike Swauger's excellent recent performances.
Knowing(speculating actually) that the Kyosho team used solid front diffs(a plastic diff lock-block comes with the kit), could it be that Team Mugen didn't have that option?
Maybe Kyosho actually used regular front diffs and Mugen was caught without parts for a front diff.
I dunno, just wondering.
Anybody else hear anything?

With the exception of the tire fiasco that several teams had, do you really think ANY of those teams would show up to a World Championship without ALL their options? It's not like showing up to your local track and saying "Oops, I forgot my fuel" and then just going back home and getting it. I'm sure all those teams were prepared with options. According to the reports Swauger was in good position in his final race to advance before the servo crapped out.

1.- BO513 pinion gear tool.
2.- If you have the front diff casing, which comes with all kits, what you need is the internals:
CO228 DIFF GEARS (W/O O-RINGS)
CO227 SPACERS
TO202 DIFF CUP JOINT
TO215 JOINT PIN
TO210 O-RINGS SET
TO207 GASKET
Hope it helps

Tank: Yes. Judging by the opening in the radio tray, it looks like there was a different tank in there before.
Shocks: No. The MTX/MRX-3 aluminum shock caps are ribbed/knurled.
