He ran RM at one of our local outdoor tracks this weekend, as did nearly all of the racers. Watching the the few MM cars that did show, I doubt most club level racers would benefit from switching between RM and MM for different track surfaces. I think dealing with basic tuning and finding the right tire and foam combo has more of an influence. The MM cars looked just as dialed, and most were able to run laps on par with most of the RM cars driven by drivers of similar skill. I really like the feel of MM, so will likely stay with that layout and work with suspension setup and weight bias. It's come down to personal preference.
