Matrix Wing ?
 
Just wondering, where can one get the Matrix buggy wing and mounts at? Thanks.

Hey thanks again dustin, I was wanting to know so that I may possibly mount this to my Nemesis. I couldn't find it anywhere and at 25 bucks it's a bargain as well.

yeah, Customrccars is great!

Although, my half gen/half nem spends a lot of time on the lid, and I even busted the stock nemesis body spoiler thing. lol.
I can't see a wing lasting more than 10 mins on my truck. lol

Do you have a center diff lock on your truck? Or do you just jump and flip alot? I know with how mine is tuned, I can mash the throttle and it won't wheelie, just flat out take off. Now one front wheel will tend to lift but that's it, once it sets back down it just scoots along. Landed once on the lid from a jump, but I'm pretty consistent in keeping it on all four. Yeah, I do agree with you, if your pretty consistent in rolling or flipping then a wing isn't the best of things to put on, I just want to see how it will affect the in air abilities. I was wanting to race it this year, but it's not happening, maybe later, but not now. See how well the new axles bash then maybe I will consider putting it through the track paces.

yep, center locked:D
when I smoke my gas, I can almost back flip it. lol
I have fun seeing how many times I can get it on the back wheels, then hit the brakes and get it on the fronts, then gas it onto the backs....
Without all 4 ever being on the ground at the same time:)

Wow, that's all I can say, sounds like you got your hands full with the center locked. Do you know if the 3 speed makes a big difference?

well, mine was originally a genesis, but I went with the bue side plates, alum diffs, nem brakes, and I got a nem body, but I retained the Genesis tranny, top shocks and wheels, so it is still well heavier than a nemesis. Plus I run integy alum shocks.
If I am in a small area, say, in town or something, I never hit third. But If it is in a place with at least 100 ft. WOW

Remember that the .46 is a hi torque, low revving engine, so you top out quickly in each gear, but have good accel. So an extra gear makes more difference than it would in a higher revving engine. I know my funfactor would do 46.5 on the nose with the OS .18 in it, and the Genesis would do about the same. If I raced them, I would depend on tuning because they were so close.

I think the Nemesis tops out at 40 with the 2 speed, but accels faster due to less weight.
