Excellent choice getting the MTX4. The car goes together easily. I would suggest getting front CVD's and a thicker rear shock tower. Thats about the only problems I have heard about. Other than that the car is very easy to put together. Just take your time (cause the instructions are that great) and you shouldnt have any problems.

BTW, I let you guys know that excessive grease on first gear one way bearing is bad thing. I made the mistake on today race 
and paid the price 
Luckily I still got third, but it was very close race between me and him.
Is it possible the main shaft steel become smaller in diameter where the first gear one way bearing sit ?
