To use the Tamiya shocks you need the PRP shock tower right?

Thats what Matt Francis has said... apparently because the Tamiya shocks are all the same length, you would have way too much droop in front without the PRP tower.

So are you using the PRP tower? If so where can I get one? I saw there site awhile back and said they were making a new one but have not made it yet?

XXX-S RTR vs. XXX-S G+
Hey folks! I am new to the forum and to 10th scale touring cars. I bought a XXX-S RTR and fairly happy with it. I want to get into racing TCs, eventually, so that leads me to my quest for informed opinions.
What are the main differences between the RTR and the G+ (other than the obvious grahite parts)? Could I mod-up the RTR to get it close enough to the G+ in handling and not exceed the cost of just buying the G+? Would a novice to intermediate driver even notice the difference?
I have set the droop, ride height, changed the shock positions, springs, harder front and rear bumpers, added slicks and the upgraded belt. Trying to get it tweaked right is a giant pain with the shock collar setup on the RTR! Stock guys at my local track (SoCal Raceway) still blow me away in handling. Power is not a problem! I can't tell how much of it is my driving.... I know it matters, but the car just does not seem to stick in the turns like the other cars (Yokomo's, TC-3's, and the new rage - Xray's).
Any opinions would be really helpful as I have a chance to upgrade cars this weekend and have a buyer on the line for my RTR if I want to switch. (Heck, it is Father's day after all!)
Thanks in advance!

One of the smartest things you can do as far as setup goes is talk to the fast guys at your track. Figure out exactly how they've setup their cars and get their opinions on how you've got yours setup. You mentioned that you've got slicks, but didn't say which ones specifically. Make sure you're running the right tire for your track. This is critical to good handling. And keep those questions coming on this thread. There are a lot of very knowledgeable people on here.
