We are working hard as a team to develop the car quickly to make sure we can get it out to the general public. I know that myself and the other A team guys are testing every week to make changes/improvements to the car ready for general release.

Im sure you all want the car to be right straight away.

any height will fit I believe, as they aren't having to fit under the pulley at the front like the SX2

Theoretically any height could fit, but you'll have problems fitting things under the shell. The car is designed to take the maximum height specified by the BRCA/EFRA Regulations

Just had a look through the parts listing & added up what I think you'd need to convert a Cat SX2 to SX3 (with a S1 chassis/top deck)....

£246

CF would be closer to £300

If the old rear trans housings could be modified to fit then that would be £210 for S1...

One things for sure, its not worth doing either way

On the SXII how well did the pastic suspension holders and steering arms hold up compared to the original alloy versions on the SX ? And people with the SXII did you convert anyway for more durability ?

Hi Stegger
I've started last season with SX2 with stock plastic holders. Ran it in the front with your brace - that held just fine. I broke in about 3-4 races 2 rear blocks but it was bad landing really. If you want to be on safe side - alloy holders are way to go. You can still run plastic ones but have pack or two of spare and run your brace in front and it's doable just fine
