Does anyone have links or part numbers for spacers or washers in different colors? I'd like to buy some Durango gold as well as red washers for bump steer placement, etc.

I see. They're called spacers. TD ones on tower hobbies.

The stock chassis does work, but the extended (+8mm) chassis makes the car easier to drive. The stock chassis does seem to work better on tighter layouts.

Besides the usual stuff (pinions, spurs and springs), you can race it out of the box. There are however a few recommended upgrades:
* Aluminum rear hubs
* Gearbox brace from Sumo Racing
* CF rear shock tower

Both those upgrades would make the car more durable.

In my opinion, the only needed upgrades are a good steering rack and a cf rear tower.

First things I'd look at for your nose down issue is throttle position at launch and ride height (followed by maybe rear spring rate).

Durango wheels and DE racing wheels for the dex210 are the only wheels that will fit without mods.

I love reading these. Here deal dude everyone on here has an opinion which they are entitled to. Just drive it out of the box. I run mine on a huge 1/8 scale track. I prefer the stock chassis turns like butter and handles great. Deffinately flip the rear arms and mount the shocks behind the tower. I also found that a shorter wheelbase is best at my big track. Mainly enjoy it before you dump another 200 into it.
