Who doesn't like M!

You got to love these two new comer for Mini cars...............  They both fun to play and easy to set.  The Altas is running with white pig, HPI tires and Beetle body and the Gentic has 23T with original ABC tires.....  They are both so much fun to play with!!!  
Enjoy!  

Ok... I know the body posts are ugly.... so don't make fun of me on that, OK!  

Umm..i dont like M...because i have to stop playing when M comes...AHAHAHAHAHAH

They handle about the same but I think the Altas is slightly better because it's quieter... but the Gentic has "one-way" bearing and it corners good..... Also I think the weight balance on the Gentic is better then the Altas...

Hey Mike,
Both a very nice and fun car. may I know which parts they can share? They really look quite similar.

Nice cars!  is that alclad chrome on the beetle? looks cool!

Do you find the genetic has torque steer under hard acceleration? when I had my genetic and I pull the throttle hard, the car always tries to turn to the right (or left can't remember which way now) I wondered if it was just my car or if other drivers experience the same?

Hi Mike,
Is the red color use on the Fit body from Tamiya? I like it very much, please advice the code, thanks!

The front steering system are about the same...  Believe it or not, I think the chassis are about the same too... wheels, bodies, rear sway arms... I'll take some closer photos for you tonight just to make sure....

The car doesn't go straight when pull hard acceleration.....  it goes left and right as a matter of fact.  I checked the toe and camber but still doesn't help.....  I guess that's why people complain about the "steering loose" problem...

Already "swip" the whole JET and the only thing I got was the one way bearing and sway bars for the Gentic... NOTHING FOR THE ALTAS!!

Yes, it help.
also there's alloy battery holder. It help to hold the stick pack at stock chassis. But if your stick pack is something bigger than 3300, you only buy one at the spur gear side is good enough. If use both alloy battery holder, the battery will not fit in.

such small chassis dont use  3300 etc ~ last week M race i even saw
people use 4200 batt @@"

for M chassis , lighter batt is essential...

Pain in the axx..... I uaually runs "side" batteries though... the stick pack just for testing at home last night....  
Do you find the weight distribution of the Gentic is way off after you put the battery in??
