hi all.

had my first run with 4 cars today at TU @ ~11am. 2 of the older superX chassis encountered no trouble with the track. the ms-chassis miss the track at the 2 jumps, both times after the 3rd round. seek for advice the master david, and he suggested to lower the underside stabilizing head to ~1mm from the ground.

david sure is the master, as it solve my problem, though speedwise barely cukup2 makan as the alkeline battery already degenerade.

the superfm  chassis encountered problem with crack plastic pinion. small matter, will replace it later at home. overall, my daughter & myself enjoyed ourself as we had the track for almost 1hrs plus. bought a few stuff from david, and we'r off for lunch.

cheers.

As in mini4wd world, i think 27.65sec can only say as 27.70sec. Bcoz betw 0.01 to 0.99 different is abit big in term to distance and speed. As in competition, i heard pro said wan chase 1 sec oso not easy. Perhap he mean 50% chance only gua... Unless boost battery can make another 2 sec fast, but did the car wil stable like usual?(hard lor)

Jus a sharing frm wat i knw... =p  icon_idea.gif

no problem... glad to help. quoting David , it's RM 50 - RM 73 depending on which model like Thundershot MK II , Thundershot MK III Azure , Sport-Car model which i dont know the names and Dash warriors cars like Emperor , Super Emperor , Burning Sun , Shooting Star. There are others to choose from.

I was planning to find mach dash which i used last time but i dont think its available now.I think i'll get the hyper dash when i go to TU.I dont have enough cash to buy a Tamiya car for now but enough to buy the motor so i guess will use a fake car(other brand) atm.
Thanks for the tips guys.
*
angel86 , you must understd that mach dash is no longer available and ms pro is different from all the other chassis we've played when we were kids. motor has a double shaft...

Angel86 ....when i first started playin at T.U in April , i brought my audley car and played there but i was given a good reason not to play anything else beside Tamiya which was David's boss indirectly disapproves us playing other brands esp. when you are running a business and you're trying to sell your product when others are bring other brands into the picture and i understood that coz im running a company as well.
Basically David will get firing from his boss if he doesnt enforce that simple rule.

It's like what david said , you buy chicken rice from one shop and bring it to a mamak shop and order ais kosong from them.. you get what i mean?

Angel86, plz understand that 95% of the racers here are playing Ms-pro cars and others are playing old chassis which is sold here in T.U. if you are interested , come and play otherwise dont cause unnecessary arguements which can be solve in matter of one reply from me.

If you really read my posts above,the issue wasnt about the rules of using the track.I accept the rules because the track belongs to mine.

ok...i re-read the post..fine.. you got no objections to following rules... this guy TXfirst...said he wanted to put old chassis motor into ms-pro chassis then david said he would laugh , even i would laugh coz it will be slow.

then TXfirst said oh new concept and David said maybe but go try that somewhere else. my opinion would be what's the point of ms-pro chassis when you put motor eg. say ultra dash into it? it's not even a new concept ,its like using old chassis. it's stupid for this guy to think that it's a new concept.

but you going and tell david something about profit etc... not related to the topic.. who would get angry?
