Hey, i just bought a 25$ racing clutch bell for my MT2 and instead of using the one stick bearing it uses 2 circle ball bearings. I was wondering... the racing clutch bell has 4 little holes in it in the front. Does dirt or snow get in those holes when you are driving? cause that would be not so good.

You will also need the cone washers for the clutch from HPI. If you pull up the SS instructions all the parts are listed. I just ordered everything from them. I will say though that I went to a 13T from the 12T and with the stock built in engine mount the mesh is a bit too tight. I just ordered the low cost engine mounts to fix the issue.

I hope they have reverse for the MT2, I hate having to go back and pick it up after it when nose end into a ditch and couldn't get out. Reverse on the MT2 would make this baby a bad***** stadium truck. Don't you guy agree with me?
