Honestly, I'm abit underwhelmed by this update.

Whether small bore or big bore, ball diff or gear diffs, they can be tuned to whatever anyone desires with the option parts.

As I run mainly on dirt tracks, these are two factors that I will not get it:

1. The flex on the original K1 is rather rigid. It is hard to get it right for the car to be fast on tight infields. Schumacher did not state exactly what the new top deck exactly improve. The arms do come in medium flex as standard now.

2. The new CF chassis seems to be designed exclusively for carpet/astro. The holes under the spur and motor mount will only allow small rocks and fine dust to get in and kill some part of the transmisson...probably the spur first. And no, I don't believe in sticking small pieces of lexan to cover it, or use an undertray.
