In the last 6 months I have only ran the car 4 times including cactus classic where I only ran 2 qualifiers and wasnt due to a break just didn't feel like racin.. I'll end up getting another one next winter most likely when I live closer to a track, just dont like it sitting on my shelf collecting dust.

Default Longer chassis = Stability?

Out of all the longer chassis options out there that offer different lengths and different materials which one would be suitable for this track?

I know from talking to a friend at the track he mentioned that going +8 worked well for him. Which +8 options are worth looking into?

Not to my knowledge, nor have I seen or heard of any of the factory guys using such. The DEX-410V3 is solid performer as it sets.

No new version of the DEX-210 to my knowledge at this time.

that is a tiny track. you will not gain much with a longer chassis over stock length

+2

In fact, it will probably hurt you since there are tight corners where the shorter wheelbase would work better. IMO, the longer chassis will only work in the larger tracks (think Cactus Classic track) AND if you're good enough to turn super consistent laps to notice the difference...

Thanks for keeping me honest here. Saved me some dough too.

You shouldn't be upset about getting a "sneak peak" of what is under the body of the new prototype car. Most of the time, the factory guys get the cars and cannot take pictures of the vehicle with the body off... so this picture does confirm that there is a car coming soon.... isn't this the question that was asked?!?! Apparently, you already know everything... so why are you on this forum in the first place? That's my opinion for you.
