Well I just finished painting and running with my new pro line crowd pleazer body 2.0 that I got for racing. Along with a new high torq servo savage ribed pipe [which BTW is INSANE with the TT .21, HUGE JUMP in top speed and low end torq] and I need to convert the rest of my MGT to racing. The comp will me st-maxxes and savage's, mostly just "running for fun" but there should be 2 or 3 other MGT's too. I saw some where that a guy cut his side gaurds down, I am gonan do that because they provide no protectiln really. THat is until lI get that titanium chassis. So any thing I can do with out buying any thing? I still plan to get racing stuff and any in put on that would be cool too. :cool:

Looks good, nice fade for rattle cans. However, I think Proline screwed up on the new Crowd Pleazer because that thing looks almost as bad as the MF2 body!

Man you sure do like spending money on that truck ;)

Just kind of hit me that you've got a ton of upgrades. My GT still owns you in the money spent on hopups department :p

Edit:
One more till the big 3,000!

Some racing wheels and tires are your best bet. Low profile bow ties with dish rims will help it handle much better.

As far as not spending as much money - you could trim down the bumpers (or get rid of them all together) or skid plates, play around with suspension set ups and different spring and shock oil to lower the CG and try to improve handling. The MGT handles great as it is but you definitely milk it for more.
