I think I can also talk a buddy into joining, he just picked up the new Mercedes GT3 RTR
Welcome to the Challenge! Nice to have new entrants. Most of my cars are the original ASF MR-03s. Your AWD should be good for Stock class if you use the prescribed motors, but probably won't be competitive with the 2wd cars unless you are an AWD master. I'd recommend picking up an MR-03 RWD ready set to run in Box Stock class too. You and your buddy will be more evenly equipped, and it can then be upgraded to run in other classes if you like it better than AWD on Mini96. If you have an ASF radio you really like, you could look for an ASF MR-03 instead of the newer FHSS RWDs, but they are harder to find. AMain has several RWD ReadySets in stock right now for $174.99 with free shipping, but act fast if you choose to go this route, because they sell out fast.
