It handled great once I figured out what it needed for which ever track conditions came about. Overall, it took me a couple months to learn how to setup the car, and I was just coming from the MRE.
Thanks for your input. Looks like I may be getting the 416. Now all I have to do is see where to get it the cheapest

With that, the car looks awesome. Will have to see how you do with it. I have always wanted one. But never did
I never thought I'd get one either but you already know the problems we face running the HB.

There's no way that I could make that race and I still have to sell my Cyclone before I can get me a Tamiya.

It's that easy huh??? I will go and take a look at his set up. The only bad thing about me being Tamiya ignorant is understanding how much toe the set up calls for since the blocks uses letters instead of numbers
