Default TRF417X-2012 version

Kentech posted this in the TRF417 thread and I felt it needed a wider audience:

The new changes look promising. What are your thoughts??

Question:
I got a lot of suspension parts like, hubs, suspension arms, suspension blocks and many others.
Really made a good stock of parts to me but the case is I got out of races now for a year and coming back now I saw that we are already on the 417X so does this parts fit this car?
I want to get one when it comes out, but will only do if I can use those parts on it as replacement.

All of the normally consumable parts will work on the 417X as well...Motor mount, chassis and top deck are the biggest changes.

As Artwork says, the main changes are to chassis plate, top deck, shock towers and motor mount.... everything else on a 417 will fit on a 417X, and vice versa

All your suspension parts will be the same. Don't stress. Tamiya has used the same suspension for a very long time. Doubt they will ever chage it again.
