HAh Lol Before I started racing I raced slot cars. The sport is much more than rc, Those cars right there are called group 7 and depending on the track they average around 100-150mph and the motors usually last around 1 round and cost from $300 to $600 each. I know because I was stupid enough to race these. Also there's 8 lanes a track and 8 rounds a full race.

Is there an alternate receiver that works with the MT-4 other than the $120 one is comes with? I can live without the telemetry.

Airtonics 92524 FHSS-2 Should work for you. About $60 last time I picked one up.

Like Trevor said the FHSS-2, but it has different reaction time than the radio if you care about that sort of thing. I am using a Airtronics 92744 (FHSS-3) which is supposed to be the same reaction time, at least this is what I was told.

Air brush paints will be available next week along with the B4.2!!The air 92524 will not work with the MT4, but the non-telemetry air 92744 will work. It is 10 bucks cheaper than the air 92010 with the telemetry features. The air 92744 will be in stock by the end of the week or very beginning of next week.

Im there and I made some adjustments to the 2wd hopefully it'll be a Lil more aggressive in the corners and ill have the loaner B44.1 again so you won't think it was a fluke that I whooped you.
