Thinking about a Mi3.5

[gingerbob]

Hiya.
I hope you guys can help.
I have just started looking into buying a car to do drag racing against a few mates.

We have some rules we have set, and I was wondering what peoples thoughts were.

Main rules are:-
1/10th scale
540 motor (brushed or brushless)
7.2V 6 cell battery
RWD
£50 max spend on motor.

Looking around I was thinking of going for the Schumacher Mi3.5 Race Spec.
Although it is mainly drag, will obviously want to have fun in car parks aswell.

Also, I was wondering if it was possible for 200mm shells to fit 190mm chassis?

Thanks everyone!

right well i would reccomend not getting the mi3.5 because all of the screws are done up so tight that when u undo them they wont undo. my friend has one and he said it was a waste of money . if you want a schumacher get the mi3. much better car ( i have an mi3 ) for your enquiry about the shell . yes you can put a 200mm shell on a 190mm car but the edge of the shell will be 10mm away from where it should be. what shell are you looking at cos it should be done as a 190mm shell aswell
