Hey Frank. I already got a red shock tower from RCX.
And those gold lugnuts are from a company called JET. They make very good lugnuts as does GPM. As I stated before, the flanged wheel nuts I find work much better than the non flanged type. Also, GPM's and Jet's have much better nylon inserts that don't pop out like others do. Kyosho's is also good for that reason, very good nylon inserts, but Kyosho does not have flanged nuts.
I'll try and take a better picture showing my red shock tower on my MR15. I still need to get the red rear shock, but would like to find a much better alloy motor mount. The plastic one I have looks ugly right now because I had to use packaging tape on it to keep the motor from popping off. It works great as prooven durring my races this Saturday, but looks ugly.
SO I'd like to find a HM motor mount that will allow me to use the shock tower and rear shock that I currently have.
Does Atomic made red alloy? I Know they have a pretty good HM motor mount, but all I've seen for that is blue and silver.

Hey everyone. I was just checking out Atomic's website and was admiring their new Chilli motors. It looks to me like we're now going to have brushless motors for the Mini-Z? Anybody else noticed this? That would be sweet, I gotta get that red Chilli motor for my MR15 if it is in fact truely for the Mini-Z. It doesn't say exactly what it's for or what size it is. Might have to e-mail theme and ask. Check it out!

Sorry, my fault. I misread it. It was brushes, not brushless motor. Dange it. A brushless motor for Mini-Z would be cool. Anyway, still looks like a good hot motor. Might get one. Any thoughts?

The Chili is a 130 modified motor, the stock-R is the stock fet version. They are brushed motors, brushless motors would require a brushless specific speed controller. The Atomic motors just give more adjustability of tuning the motor.

While the motors look interesting, they may be too complicated for their size. I am definitely going to try the stock-R out

About the locknuts, I have a bunch of them. Work very well and the whole name of the brand is Jet Racing. These are very cheap too as I barely paid $2 for one set in HK.

Hey byebye, have you received the white BBS wheels yet? I'm surprised I haven't heard from you as it's been over a week since I mailed theme. Other items have arrived, and I did ship yours USPS Priorety so you should have gotten theme by now. Please e-mail me and let me know, thanks!

Hmm, that's strange. How long is it suppose to take for USPS Global Priorety? I'd thought you would have it by now. Well, if it doesn't show up within another week, let me know and I'll send you the 20 dollars for the wheels you gave me. I apologize that the 2nd set hasn't shown up yet either.

Did I ever tell you to send it "Global" priority jack ass?????????? I spelled it our clear in email and you even had the nerve to ask if my address was right??????

It's a damn FPO address. You obviously spend most of your life on the internet so do me a favor and google "FPO for military". Take 5 min. away from your shelf queen chassis and do a little research.

Asshat........

well, Sorrrrry! You did say USPS Priorety, the only option I had was global priorety.
dont' call me a jackass. I was trying to get it to you as fast as possible.
I also wanted to make sure that I had the address correct so that it wouldn't get lost. Not trying to see if you had it right or not. I"m sure you had it right.
If that's your attitude I don't want to do any more deals trades or purchases with you anymore. Good DAY! jerk.

Did you're mommy and daddy ever teach you to pay attention to detail? I made it clear remember? "nothing more, nothing less" ring a bell?

And secondly you never did any damn business with me. As far as I'm concerned you've scammed me! I sent you a set of wheels and you "said" you sent a second set because the first set you supposedly sent was lost.

And just FYI for everyone else I traded a set of black wheels for a set of white bbs wheels that I bought him, FREE OF CHARGE!!! I only did it because I thought he some kid that couldn't afford it. I shouldn't have been so stupid. So now I'm actually out 2 sets of wheels.

When you grow up do us all a favor, don't have kids.

First all, I never scammed. I DID send two sets of wheels. I don't know what happened to the first set, so I sent you the second set that I purcahsed from ebay myselfe. You should have gotten that set by now or will be getting it soon. Second, I offered to pay you 20 dollars for that set of wheels and still will offer to pay you 20 dollars if you don't see at least one of those sets of wheels.
So I'm TRYING OK? Back off.
