The full-on Yeah Racing conversion kit might do what you're looking for, but it's rather drastic and exposes the gears.

I wouldn't expect any 3rd parties to be interested in making a replacement tub chassis, moulds are expensive for low volume sales.

Hey guys! How’s it hangin?

What tires do ya'll recommend for the new black CRC carpet ? My grandson is going to start racing on carpet with a M05R V2 /
Thanks for the help,
Kenny

Team Powers Mini 36R's with front sidewalls glued.

Would the MO3 suspension arm hit the ground if you flipped them and had the damper mounted below the chassis mounting point as shown:

New body set already announced for M chassis Way to go Tamiya

This is interesting

54995 M-Chassis 60D Super Radial Tires (Soft,2pcs)

54999 M-Chassis 60D Super Radial Tires (Hard,2pcs)

I wonder if it’s a new compound or a new tyre entirely ​​​​​​​

The body is interesting, as long as Tamiya keeps the price realistic.

As its a pre-painted bodyshell and that you need to buy the plastic body parts separately, I doubt it will be cheap.

that’s the kit. There will be a separate body set available

Anyone have a pair of the Alfa Giulia rims they aren’t using? Part # 0445623

im so fed up with TamiyaUSA and their lack of inventory

I put together a Rear Motor/Rear Wheel Drive 210mm Mini using MF01X chassis. It's the best driving and most fun Mini chassis I have. Silver can motor shown along with 60D radial:



Body lean is intentional. It does not traction roll and has awesome rear traction. Forget about FWD.....

Used to have the Mini Monte Carlo on the MF01X.. the duck tail needed trimming to make it fit.. that body was narrower than the later Mini bodies.

Im not a fan of FWD either.. not in 1:1 or scale. I bought an M05 early this year just for the Renault 5 body.. I later built it and ran it in front of the house for fun.. it spins the wheels for 5 seconds.. where as my M06, does nice corners and I can drift it when I want to..

The only fun about my FF car (FF02) is that I added 4WS to it. Otherwise it is so boring

Trying to finish a kit I purchased and steering servo has ~5mm gap to chassis.
Is there a servo horn or spacers that I need to buy?
Please excuse the terrible lack of photography skills:

Thank you

That looks like a full height servo. Check the manual, the kit comes with the appropriate spacers for full height servos.
