running a 1/8 scale is almost cheaper than a 1/10 now a day. at least the 8th doesn't need to have so frequent maintenance, at least doesn't have to try out so many viscosity of silicon in the differentials.
so the mtx4 was $250 to $275 US when it came out?
i think from memory the mtx4 was approx $475 in Australia when it was released.
