MattW123 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Hi All, I was considering getting an MTA G3 in the near future, however I recently saw this http://www.ttamerica.com/ and I am concerned about what this could mean for future support with the truck- parts and replacement if something goes wrong. Does anyone have any more information about this? Cheers, Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike1980 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 What kind of top speeds are you guys getting. I've had 37mph on byrons 25% on grass. I've seen videos and claims of 45-50mph though. Is this with a stock spur or what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordanp Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 its a smaller clutch bell that you can buy, or a smaller spur which im planning on getting made Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this with a stock spur or what? 37-38 is about the max standard gearing, i fitted a bigger clutchbell on mine and achieved 45+ i did also smash the 50 barrier but that was running 5s on a brushless conversion!

chirri999 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I'm hoping to do a dual tank mod sometime in Apr/May, main problem at moment is what springs should I have on the original shocks should I go gold/red or copper, I use the truck for a few jumps nothing crazy as I'm still learning, should I get the alloy caps and bottoms or just buy a full set of adjustable shocks can you name any and what length diameter do I need, all help appreciated. There's a seller on ebay selling in different lengths from I think 60mm up to 150mm different alloy colours and at Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

almighty15 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 My cousin has just bought this for my nephew, however in his wisdom he's ****** around with the needle settings and it sounds bloody dreadful! I know the base settings for these are completely ****ed up in the manual so what carb settings does everyone use to break in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
