you will love it too I'm sure...........
If I were building one now, I would wait for Mikes 8th diff cases to come out.
even the 'Hop up' ali ones seem to wear out, Granted they are loads better than stock, but after a few races mine have started to wear around the cross pin.

Ok, like weeks, months, or years LOL? Really not to big of a deal for me, since I need to save the money first. Also is the CF or aluminum chassis the way to go?

Carbon fiber is alot stronger than aluminum, but if it snaps your out of the game. As for aluminum it can always be bent back as a band aid fix so you can still run while waiting for a replacement. Just my 0.02 cents.

There is no flexing issues with the C/F? What do rocks do when they hit C/F when running? Does it mess up the laminate? Thanks guys, I really appreciate this all!

OH NO! Not another show truck:p look foreward to seeing it. I have a G2R and love it. Can Mike do a G2R kit with a CF chassis? I'm thinking about a new truck for the 7XL and 16024...maybe the 12XL. and was wondering if he could package the revo ends and tranny (Emaxx half case) with the CF chassis


Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise

I love show trucks, epsecially when they get dirty, but mine will never look that good, I'd be afraid to play with it, much less race it
