An experiment I'd love to hear the results of 
. Started with a TC3, then to an EVO III, then EVO IV before finally moving to Belts. I really like the 416, but the EVO V MS is always in the back of my head to purchase and compare now that brushless 17.5 racing is the norm around these parts.

just want to try the evoVMS since it has evolved with the 416 steering and easier spur gear access. top deck is only $20 or so?

* The carbon lower deck comes in the same thickness but has a new battery position. I use lipos..doesn't matter where the holes are.
* The carbon upper deck is integrated with the rear upper brace for improved flexibility. This I'll buy separately
* The new motor mount also features redesigned sections and can provide excellent support to high spec motors. The fastest motor I run is 10.5...not sure if this will matter
* The large sized urethane bumper closes the gap between the chassis and body reducing battering. I glue foam pieces on the bumper to get the body to fit perfect
* New front and rear drive belts. Installed
* Short reversible suspension arms with reversed suspension mounts. Installed
* Front Direct Cup Installed
* Teflon sealed ball bearings. Aftermarket bearings installed
* High Lubrication Dampers. Installed

Oh you suck! I wanna try out an Evo V MS! Anyone wanna trade an Evo V MS for a 416??? haha.
I still have my Evo IV/MS. But it tweaks too easy. Most of the racing I'll be doing locally will be either 17.5 or 13.5. I just love Tamiya shaft cars. Hmmm might have to go the TB03 route. But I don't wanna spend any more money on RC cars. Sucks...... jerk! j/k

That's exactly what I'm going to do. Haven't seen many advantages yet. Here's what is new with the WE...where's the advantage?
* The carbon lower deck comes in the same thickness but has a new battery position. I use lipos..doesn't matter where the holes are.
* The carbon upper deck is integrated with the rear upper brace for improved flexibility. This I'll buy separately
* The new motor mount also features redesigned sections and can provide excellent support to high spec motors. The fastest motor I run is 10.5...not sure if this will matter
* The large sized urethane bumper closes the gap between the chassis and body reducing battering. I glue foam pieces on the bumper to get the body to fit perfect
* New front and rear drive belts. Installed
* Short reversible suspension arms with reversed suspension mounts. Installed
* Front Direct Cup Installed
* Teflon sealed ball bearings. Aftermarket bearings installed
* High Lubrication Dampers. Installed

you forgot the most important part:
* Skilled driver. I'll buy separately
