I was just thinking this model as well. The LS10 and the MT2 look very similar and I am wondering if anyone has experience with either. The HB and HPI are same company I wonder if the LS10 mount would work on the MT2.
I've been looking into these two cars for a long time and they may make a fun fall project.
The plastic pull-out servo/radio tray on the MT2 looks like it would present a challenge and not sure if there is a diff or slipper in the middle.
The slipper on the LS10/GT10 looks like something that would actually be kinda handy for the BL conversion, especially with the plastic center gear.
