Is that the 35k motor?
it's going to eat the Lancias box stock

and is that some playing with the guide and clearance at the front I can see ? or part of the sample.

Sean - You KNOW what to do for me ehh?

Graham....know how I might get ahold of anyone at MRRC as I have had 80 sets of tires and hubs on backorder with them for 6 months?...

A very nice looking car and great to see MRRC keeping up with the big boys AND progressing into sidewinders - excellent!

But a cautionary note:
A 35k motor, with potentially twice the max speed of more modest models, will need a VERY large track to actually show it's capability. But given that, it will probably eat most things!

The sample Toyota came with a 28,000 Scaleauto motor fitted. John at MRRC has confirmed this will be the standard motor fitted to the new range of MRRC cars. There are one or two minor mods which will hopefully be made before the car goes into production. The front ride height is a little high on the sample we have, if the front axle is raised by around 1mm it should be perfect. Although a similar effect could be to change the front tyres to some lower profile slicks, although that would be a shame as MRRC have had the fore-thought to use a hard compound/low grip front tyre. The rear tyres are very nice and grippy, they also fit the Fly Capri's/Lancias!
For those who want the tech spec of the motor it is rated at 12v - 28,000rpm, 0.31amp, 150gr/cm and is the same size as a standard Mabuchi S. It is recognisable as the can is painted red and the motor shaft extends from the endbell only. Will also fit Scalextric and Fly.
The 35,000rpm motor has a spec of 12v - 35,000rpm, 0.44amp, 190gr/cm again the can is painted red but the motor shaft extends from both ends making it a universal motor which will fit Scalextric, Fly, Ninco, Proslot etc. The motors are supplied separately without wires or pinions.
Hope this clears up more questions than it poses!

Nice one Sean....

THANK YOU!

If these motors are the same size as the ones used by another equally long standing and famous company, then could they not use them in their limited edition range to give those cars a power boost relative to the standard range?

Would this make the limited editions even more attractive?
