Fredrik 503 diff protector and 503 & 201XMW chassi protector arrived yesterday, SUPER FAST!!!
503 chassi protector and 503 diff protector fits perfectly!! I love it!!
My 201XMW kit arrived this monday and it is in the box, not assembled yet (I need time!).

Hope Fredrik make a version of the 503 shock towers!!

what combo of spur and pads are u using guys?it seams that 91t spurs are only the tamy ones.

diff/belt cover arrived a couples of days ago ,fit nicely.
regarding the rear top plate i haven't had any problem with it at moment,but i know that the TRF TEAM did breake it too.

after three club meetings,crashed few times at the end of the straight because i couldn't apply breaks due to slipping belts and the car seems solid.

Fredriks covers look great

Now if he could just hurry up with the carbon fiber goodies he is doing

[guinness]

i would like a spur gear cover

Quick Question:
What parts have people use to convert the front Hexs to 12mm? or Do you all just order 10mm Wheels to suit?

[caneye]

I was told that the Team C's 12mm hex is a direct fit.

finally had a chance to run my car, over 2 months after taking delivery of it.
ran it in an indoor carpet track. (i was going to get diff covers to run outside but since the indoor track opened up, i just couldn't pass up the opportunity).
Still box stock set-up.
- ran went, jumped well. no breakages.

stoked.

car struggled with traction-rolling, even after i installed the rear sway bar. (was using Proline Pinpoint F & R)

i'm thinking of going to stiffer springs too.
any other suggestions?

also looking to get some o-rings for the diffs. the rear diff appears to be leaking a tad.

2.5mm top decks can be pre ordered now.

I hope that either Fredrik or somebody gets the carbon fiber upper and lower decks done soon

I need to try e-mailing Sepes again for the upper decks...

Nice idea on the weight ... I wonder if it replaces the inner battery holders since it's a little wide

yeah you just unscrew the inner lipo stays. Will see if can get a picture up of it in the car. Also have the drawings of the top decks and battery braces on the site now with shock towers going up shortly with a pre order option. Prices will be as competitive as we can make um!
