I race indoors on a technical circuit so opted for a ta05ms (less flex) as its designed for tight indoor technical circuits. I use a 19t in mine and its sweet. Although as the motor placement is more in the middle it may not be good for Mod class racing.

Just thought it might be useful for you to consider the range of TRF cars.
That is a very good argument THX!
Also, a very close friend of mine, has a TA05MS and a TRF416.
He also drove his TA05MS when he had parts broken on his TRF, using it as the backup-car, .. and he was astonish how well the MS performed, even going better then his TRF (it was on a tiny indoor-carpet-circuit).

If I choose for the MS, I guess I would even still be able to use all my TA05-parts as the spool, one-way, diffs, ...

I guess, those Tamiya top-pilots, only drive the 416 because off publicity-reasons? Or do they also run with the Ta05MS or the TB05MS?

I was just thinking that I couldn't go wrong when buying a TRF 416.
But I also must admit that I might be possible that I compete in Belgian Championship and that is driven out-as well as indoor.
How does the TA05MS perform outside then?
