Newbee. Hello

Hi All,

Been reading all you info on Madrat Pro etc over the last couple of nights and you all have convinced me to buy one to compete with this year in Cornwall.

I have been around RC racing for a while racing 2wd buggies, mainly associated and Schumacher, but also addicted to Dave circuit racing, Anyway my question is has the Pro X been with drawn? saw some threads of model shops selling that at £80 any more of these bargins about.

Already purchased the mid motor conversion kit.

Thanks for now.

Stevie G.

Don't think the X-Pro has been withdrawn... but I agree you can't seem to buy it in the UK atm...

However if you already have the conversion kit you could use that with a Madrat. You'd have to up-grade the shocks and turnbuckles a little but apart from that the cars are virtually the same.

If you still want a pro chassis to start with then you'd probably be best ordering up a SX10 2w from TQ.

If you want the pro kit and there's none in stock local, just get the $99 TC02 from Kong Kong

Guys,

Thanks for the advice.

Going to see if I can pick up a set of reasonable shocks off Ebay over the next couple of days. If I can I will go with a Madrat, if not I will order a Pro X, I guess this will be cheaper in the long run.

Cheers for now

Im not sure whether any more xpros are getting imported into the country due the soon arrival of the X2 rear motor: http://www.ar-rc.com/?p=43

I know that JE spares are already selling the Team Edition

[StevieG]

Yeh I have been looking at that.

I idea of competing with a relative cheap car (Madrat) appeals to me. I know it will need upgrading but I have had enough racing a B4 against about 12 other B4's in the club and the odd RB5 and Pro SV.
