If the suspension is chassis mounted vs. shock tower mounted is the suspension more progressive or more linear? Wonder what the IFS folks about suspension feel between the two layouts.

I'm 80% sure I'll be there. I still have my TA05 I can run. I just need to pick up a cheap blinky esc and some Tamiya Premounts and I'm set for GT1. I have a few other friends coming who are going to race Mini. I wouldn't mind trying this TA06 if it was legal. It just looks cool!

First thing I would do is to get rid of that alum turnbuckle for the steering to a Ti one. Then I will get whatever hex screws I have (Might have to ask RCChamp for the complete set). And a sway bar.

I'll try out the IFS first because I want to use my Raybrig NSX body. Our body rules are pretty lax, and I think that the SuperGT bodies are better than the protoform in terms of looks and performance.

don't forget the reallllly long sensor wire

My ESC will be going up top, nice short wires, and ballast on the right hand side!
