You should get to a track and do racing, it's great fun and club racers are usually very relaxed. -Matman sounds like you have a good amount of spares. The 415 is still as quick as anything else out there, I just think it is much more difficult to tune it to hit the sweet spot.

I know absolutly nothing about these models, but I can tell you its a really nice paint job and certainly looks like a serious racer . Chassis looks very nice..

We are not allowed to use foams in Australia . I had asked if we could , but the big NO . Thanks for the info . I have two 415 , But could make a 3rd one out of all the parts i have . Good luck with the racing .

Buy one! you will love it I liked the 415 a lot when I had one, (the original with the 3mm thick chassis, great for carpet and foams) I run a direct centre pulley and a Diff (A Tamiya gear diff with 5000wt oil). I run on a very tight indoor carpet track with foams, I prefer to have brakes as due to the narrow track you have to avoid incidents so a one way wouldn't be ideal.

Love the paint job . Great car . I have the 415 MSX & that was a great car for it's time . So this sounds like a dream to drive . Are you running the one ways front diff or one way one the center diff . I found it good on carpet racing . But not sure on the 417 . I have been fighting with my self to get one . LOL . Thanks .
