Mugen MBX6

And i thought about the JConcepts wing cuz i've heard its tough. But its a "high down force" wing, although it does not look like it too much. Wonder if the MP9 or Hotbodies wing would work, (looking for something that will hold its shape better) and still be regular down force.

thanks, what about clutch setups? are the mugen clutch shoes any good? what brand of clutch bearings are best for it?
#7203
I have no experience with the Mugen clutch system, but i ran the Xray 3 shoe for 5 years. And i always ran mine with hard springs all the way around in buggy and truck, but i like alot of snap on the bottom end. I would try either 3-med, 3-hard, or some kind of 2 and 1 combo, depending on what you like/track conditions. Bearings- i prefer metal shielded in my clutch and any brand is ok since you replace those things like crazy anyways. Protek is a good bang for your buck deal on bearings.

If you don't like the looks of the Jconcepts wings (HD types) you can still find the old Pro-Line wings. They're durable and more conventional.

If you have not done so already changing the front springs to 9.75 and the rear springs to 10.75 is awesome.
Since the change I have ran these springs on 3 different tracks now. It jumps better, levels off better, reduces kick up and drives smoother.
If your looking for a change try it.

dishsoap. Is that the super soft springs?

Where at cuz i have even noticed that Proline drivers like Cav and Bradley having to go with other companies' wings to replace hi down force wings. And its not so much the look of the hi down force wings its the handling effects they cause, very noticeable.

Hi guys
back to our fave topic - diff oils
Was wondering why there seems to be 2 school of thoughts
A- hard front, mid middle, soft rear, like most setups one can find, think 10/7/3 or the stock 7/5/2
B- mid front, hard middle, soft rear - like the Mspec for instance, 5/7/3
which concept works better in which circumstances? as I think the M-spec is targeted at the US market, and remembering the smooth and grippy US tracks, I would think that harder center diffs are less adapted to blow-up euro tracks... whaddya fellas think?
Thanks
Paul

A- softens drive to the rear wheels, sends more power to the front.
B- more rear drive. More neutral all around in my opinion.
I have tried both, never liked 5k in the center. I find the car wanders more under power so I never got why people say it makes the car easier to drive. With 7k the car accelerates more positively for me regardless of grip levels.
