Default RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread

Well I took my MT2 to the local race track today. Had alot of fun despite spending most the time fliping my car back onto its wheels LOL . Only managed about 5 laps without crashing out of about 40 odd laps.

I broke the reak lower control arm mount on the right side, just elongated the attachment/pivot point. Which gave a huge amount of toe in under power. Was thinking off upgrading that part to a GPM Aluminium part, or will that just cause the control arm to break next time? Also the brakes seem to fade pretty bad after a while, I did adjust them a little but it didn't seem to help much. Is there a good brake upgrade out there?

I have some work to do on the suspension as it seemed very soft and had alot of oversteer into corners, then alot of understeer through the corner and more oversteer on the way out. Could well be the tires arn't right for the track either.
