Apparently Josh Cyrul is very successful with this car at the moment. Then again some may argue that he would also do well with a Thunder Tiger car

Yeah, he won by 2 laps at the first Midwest race at Toledo this year, but I think he won by 6 at Detroit last year with the reflex; and that's against basically the same competition and similar lap times.

When I look at the pics of the car, it appears that its using a strange size of receiver pack. Is that one of Trinity's smaller NiMH 650mah AAA receiver packs? It certainly looks like it.

If so, will a normal sized 3x2 receiver pack fit in the space provided? I like the new smaller Trinity receiver pack, I just like the 1100mah of their normal size packs a little better!

The one that comes directly from Team Magic that I saw at the LHS where I'm at supplies the kit with the Accura RSX Protoform body.

Tires are Best foams (one of the GRP brands). I forgot what shore it was but I thought it was 37 all round. I could be wrong.

How is it compare to MTX-3 straight out of the box. I'm holding the thought about getting MTX-3 because of G4 appearance. Any story with the G4 performance so far?

It is more complete out-of-the-box, and steers like a knife through corners. It drives a little bit more aggresively that a MTX-3, the G4 suits my style more.
