Default R4evo3 does really good at this Florida Winternats

Well the r4 evo3 held its own at our 2026 Florida Winternats ,being haven't raced in about 10 years, i was late getting to the track, no real practice time at all ,still i was able to qualified 3rd in a 20 a minute C main ,the engine i ran was the Murnan modified Os Speed ,car was fast ,and I ran a locked front differential, also ran the East Civic body ,lol yep an old school body, at the end of the day , I was to pull off the bump up to the 30 min Bmain ,again 10 years since ,i havent did any big races ,after all said and done ,I was able finish 7th in the Bmain being the only Kyosho sedan at the Winternats, it was nice to see that the r4evo3 is still competitive ,and I have to shave weight also compared to the new sedans ,the car is alittle heavy, but I will figure that sometime in the future ,overall i was

very happy with the car.

This is the Evo 3 version if look the bottom of the chassie, there only 2 big engine mount screws instead of 4 aka no stripping gears, the upper deck is different, the engine centered different, the shocks are different, there is alot more to the evo3 if research it alittle more before speaking on it ,that would be greatly appreciated thank,

Kyosho V1R4 Evo3 is such a fantastic, and I really like how smooth it runs. While enjoying a break with geek bar pulse 15000 by Skullvaping, I was wondering what motor setup works best for beginners?

I get that is old to but to me after 10 years of no racing as you may remember me ,I had KM Hk1,I had the Teammagic g4rs 09 that i qualified with for worlds back in the day,I wanted something different did not want to jump on run what everyone is running wagon, I researched the car ,seen run head with the infinity, and this weekend I ran against a field of Serpents, Mugen, Capricorn, and Infinity and the Kyosho was right there with all them ,the only all hard plastic car and the only kyosho at the Winternats with no practice time at all, I was to start in 3 position for the 20 C main and was able to bump to the 30 Bmain starting in 12 position at the end the 30 minutes I finish in 7th.As far parts i don't waiting on them.

Os engine and pipe is the best choice in my opinion, get the motor and pipe
