Hey take a look at this tricked out MG 16!

Mate, you gotta tell me waht bodyshells that is? Been looking for a while to replace mine?!
Cheers

what have you upgraded you cant really tell from the picture?

OK, I have left the drive line stock and upgraded the camber and steering links from a Traxxas rustler on the rear. The front links are also Traxxas items from a Hawk I believe. The body is a Team Associated RC18R Mitsubishi Lancer with RPM revolver wheels and Duratrax Streetrac tires. The stock bushings were removed and bearings added for less rolling resistance. The rear wing is a 1/10 touring car body mount wing. I have been trying to decide on a possible tuned pipe but really like the compactness of the stock setup. I have also refilled the shocks with real 30 wt shock oil , much improved performance, with the changes I 've made it actually handles pretty well around the track.

Hope this helps. Any other questions ?

sounds like a sweet mg16!! keep up the good work

cool looking car!!!!!![&:]

That does look cool. I like the body and wing combo. At first I thought it was a VW Bug body.

looks great!!! Can you shoot a more side shot? I would like to see how the rear of the body matches up.

I have a NEXT wing on my stock body, made it look much better.

PS i also have started an official MG16 thread in the mini section with pics of mine and others, would be great to see yours in there!

Hello again, here are some more pics of my MG16 for your enjoyment. [8D]

That looks simply superb buddy,why is the rear corner removed though? Does it interfere or have you done it for the pullstart..?

i have a feeling it is a ps issue

Thanks for the kind words Mr Terminator, yes I had to notch the body a bit to clear the Pull start. I was thinking about a roto start setup, but I have not had time to research one that fits, any suggestions?
Look forward to your feedback.

Nut,
