Ran my converted mad rat using the stick pack conversion from tcmodels at coventry sunday just gone.18 drivers 1st round ftd by 10 seconds.qualified 2nd in the a,lost out by 1 second,just for a change they were chasing me instead me playing catch up,Kit set up using plastic cyber 10b(hpi)threaded shocks with hpi kit springs,tyres to suit track and and jason bennets yellow heat shrink on the cvd's to stop the pins falling out(recommended).Very impressed with the car that cost £112 to buy build then convert.

The car looked awesome sunday jon,i think all of us running the mid car have got it just about spot on for a starting point,the yeelow heatshrink was the key to your success:lol:but all in all i see a good season ahead for us,and look out for another mid on track soon:)

This one?? (http://www.tcmodels.net/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=850&category_id=49&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=71)

$55 plus shipping could just get the whole car (http://www.tcmodels.net/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=853&category_id=18&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=71) ( pro version?) for $169 or a RTR (http://www.tcmodels.net/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=876&category_id=18&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=71) for 149

They got some good prices

It is the direct warehouse that MAKES the car that you and I drive.
So yeah, they are to be trusted :).

It takes sometimes only 3 days to get an order from tcmodels to Australia. Faster than if I were to order parts in my own state (if anyone had them). Sometimes it's 5 days or so but 3 is the record for me. As said above it's the direct from factory shop

cool, now before I order a conversion kit (stick pack)what are your thoughts on the mid mount motor?
Is there a big difference? Is it worth it?
