Stock is as the vehicle ships. Calculated is worked from the stock figures on this page rather than stored beside them, so the two cannot drift apart. Not applicable means the vehicle does not come with it, like the motor on a roller or the tires on a race kit, or does not have one, like a KV rating on a brushed motor. Not published means it exists but no source we could find prints it.
How these numbers were settled
MST's official pages (rc-mst.com) publish the same 'GEAR RATIO: 1.89 (34T/18T)' for the XXX-D S (part 532128, a rear-motor shaft-driven RWD car) and this XXX-D VIP (part 532107, a '1/10 SCALE RC 4WD HIGH PERFORMANCE DRIFT CAR' per its manual, and listed as 4WD by AMain Hobbies and HobbyTown), so the rear reduction is shared.
- The 1.0 transmission and axle ratio is an inference, not a printed figure: MST drift chassis of this generation use a solid rear spool with no differential, so the published 1.89 is the pinion and spur mesh with no further reduction, and 34/18 = 1.889 matches it to within 0.05%.
- What differs from the XXX-D S is the added front prop shaft and counter-steer (CS) unit that drives the front wheels in the opposite steering direction.
- MST's XXX-D pages give no CS ratio.
- The 1.32 figure comes from Drift Mission's 2012 hands-on review and build log of this car ('Standard Countersteer is 1:1.32 CS Ratio'), only loosely supported by MST's spec sheet for the related FSX-D VIP ('CS RATIO: 1.32'), a different chassis of the same era.
- It is community-sourced, not manufacturer-confirmed for the XXX-D.
- The tire diameter is not published and is left blank; it does apply, since these cars ship with drift tires.
- KV does not apply: VIP is MST's bare high-spec chassis kit, sold without a motor (the brushless motor is bought separately).
- The cell count of 2 is a typical community estimate for MST's 1/10 brushless drift platforms of this era, not stated on any MST page found.

Every figure on this page traces to one of these. Where they disagreed, the note above says which was used and why.
