    i’m keen on one of the natural anodised motor clips, but first a question; are custom spacers needed to work in tandem with thes clips? Reason being the stockers wont fit under the alloy one. Still would like one though please… Payment tomorrow afternoon… You have mail too:smiley2:

    1.2… you know me, I like a little more speed… and it’s probably more like 4×4 metres, not 4×5. TD; will be this afternoon, my slower MR-01 chassis no more… just a few parts, ie. titanium, aluminium, some carbon. I need to keep a better hold on my temper…:angry:

    Does this mean servo fix/clean no longer required ?

    I have a very short temper. All I can say. It will be replaced shortly.

    i would like to get in on this, i do need some servo parts(1, 2 preferably alloy) but i also would be interested in other items. is there an item list???? could go for some shells 2.:)

    an item list? Does such a thing exist encompasing all brands of option parts? I DONT THINK SO… Know what you want, order, pay. Simple.

    ..man i`ve jumped my miniZ heaps, on carpet & even set up jumps at the netball courts and nothing broke!! monsters seem more fragile than Z`s, ask DGS!! monsters seem quick indoors but take it out in the open & the speed isn`t there.. miniking has a cool 4WD version!!

    g.f., mate… your Z has had heaps more go wrong than my Monster… all i’ve broken is a damper stay and a front knuckle. How much has yours gone through? With all the gears between the diff and pinion of course there’s no speed!! Sheesh! Torque all over the place as a trade-off. And miniking’s truck is as slow as a monster. Only difference is size (1/18) and real 4 wheel drive. Bottom line; a stock Monster will not stand up to much (especially when there’s a couple of geese jumping racers in my lounge room.)

    I dont get it, Whats the extra 50 or even 150 going to do, If anything a longer run time and they take longer to charge….:dead::angry::evil:
    WHY ???????

    Pete you won’t see 50mah difference but 150mah u would see a difference about 5-10 extra min! I mean 4 sets of 950mah would run extra half hour or more!

    Dgs, I don’t think the 950’s are officially on the shelve yet because i tried looking for them on the internet no luck 🙁

    For i know, GP batteries have vents like hole at the top of the battery in which i never seen in Sanyo & Powertech~

    5-10 minutes extra? I’d go as far as to say it’d depend on the setup you’ve got… hotter motors wont get an extra 10 mins if an X speed does… depends on the cells too but GP are supposed to be pretty good

    Hey, um spacers in the suspension…how does that give you more travel?

    And what nitro car/engine you got???

    he had wheel spacers under his knuckles, meaning no travel. put in some washers, now there’s travel. It was to lower it dude
