this is funny, check this out guys. I just happen to be going through the tamiya thread and found this thread again.

as you may well remember, TonyV bumped up a 1 year old thread with his problematic 501x, which has nothing to do with this thread by the way.

He then has the following quotes.

Noted: TonyV has now purchased a SX3(belt drive), gee he is the biggest hypocrite alive

I got my 511 set up today and loved the way it feels/handles (broke in the final hit a spun out car at end of straight to come a close last) but compared to my B44.1 it felts alot more stable
