Nice report though. Most reports I have seen have not done it back to back same race day and same racers exactly as you had. That's pretty consistent.

This report would some up what my theory is on the two systems. The RX8 has some things better than the MMM and the MMM has some things better to the RX8 without either being vastly superior/inferior to the other.

I would love to try one, but don't see myself spending the extra money on the RX8 when the MMM does everything I need and more.

Hmm...good thinking. Seems logical to me...makes perfect sense, actually. I dunno why Tekin would leave it out. It could also be that they're (Tekin) letting the racers set their own profile and responses to adjust for each track.

Thanks...and I agree with you. The RX8 does have some points over the MMM, and MMM has it's point over the RX8. The systems are so similar that neither gives up more than a hair to the other. WITH the exception of the cog-free starts in sensored mode. But then again, comparing the two modes wouldn't be an "apples to apples" comparison.

I've tried the RX8, and quite honestly, unless you're a full blown racer with a sponsorship on the line, I think the MMM would suit most needs. It'll definitely work for the club racing stuff...but when we're talking regionals and national qualifiers, the RX8 would be the way to go.


If only they could squeeze more power out of the 2650, though. Then, it'd be golden.
