Status: online 		He's my new project, just in the process of running it in. MCD Stadium Truck from Innovative Hobby (LargeScaleRC)
I've dropped in Zenoah 27.2cc/reed ported/reed valve/813 carb/24mm velocity stack with Jetpro pipe.

I've upgraded Alloy Servo mount plate, Alloy MCD Center Differential Bearing Holder Assy, then going to do the Alloy Engine Plate.
I hear that MCD maybe releasing there own Alloy Engine Plate, anyone heard about this??

Status: online 		Next upgrade is Alloy Fuel tank tower Connection plates. I'm also at making Alloy Fuel tank carrier to help strengthen up the back end.

Anyone got any ideas on what next to start work on???

steel gear set 23/26 tooth

none of this is needed, but I did it any way. I would strongly suggest the steel gear set.

I’ve done the Alloy servo tray, centre diff/break support, I’m in the process of making Alloy Fuel tank tower Connection plates & Alloy Fuel tank carrier then on to Alloy steering upper support. will look at steel gears..

Have to go through the pain of running it in before can really start driving it. Can wait to start bashing it around….

Status: offline 		The MCD alloy engine/gear plate is due out soon.....

The essential upgrades are the steel gears (23 and 26 teeth) and a proper front bumper - the steel one is junk and provides little or no protection in the event of a crash. The FG Marder one can be made to fit, although the best option is the King Cobra Racing (KCR) 'unbreakable' plastic one.

For added strength replace the front inner plastic rose joints with alloy ones, make or purchase front/rear wishbone braces (Pre Evo and Evo 2 models only) and a rear hub support.
