good choice. I am play a mrx5 too. hehe. For tires they are not too bad. GRP around 400-500hkd per pair including shipping. And they least very long time. Over 1 month while playing 2-3 times per week. BTW: If anyone wants to start play 1/5 and wants to buy tires. DONOT order the FG factory tires as they sucks. I tried GRP and they are very good. PMT as the have few different models, I only tried older model and it is not very good..... but from forum they said the new "superem" (sorry can't remember the exact name..) is ok.
ya, if enough people join it should be really fun. Fews guys are considering now at TRC since it is cheaper than 1/8 (both the startup cost and day to day running cost). Hope they buy la. hehe
It is the one in the video. I had done some reserch before and most people don't like the 4wd model.... Even at the 1/5 World and Euro everyone is running the 2wd model. They said 4wd under steer a lot and very high tire wear......
Mine is used. But just got a new one for my friend from China (real FG, not china made 1/5). And we order parts from Taiwan or China. Maybe we can do a group by to save shipping.
