irish_GS_Sonic,

You may have to turn down your dual rate when using your M18 or adjust the reaction time on your radio if possible.

Although I have upgrade motors in most of my Mini-Zs, I have all my Mini-Zs geared down for the RCP Tracks I run on with 7T pinion gears. Several of the locals tried running 8T pinion gears and none of us and/or the RCs could handle the technical turns on a 4L RCP Track. I know I couldn't run it that fast on my Mini-Tile unless I changed the configuration. If I recall correctly, one magazine article I read rated the stock MR-02 Enzo with the 8T at 15mph, just slightly above the stock Mini-T which was 14.7mph or close to that. I do remember that the Mini-T was below 15 mph. 15 or even 20 may not seem like much, but on a technical RCP track it is quick and the car better be set-up properly.

This was my last set up. The photo was taken in the driveway.


The one prior.
