... its going to work out more expensive... even since your using the RTR 2.0 stuff which just bends and breaks.

there is no point getting the crappy RTR chassis plate as will offer almost nothing over the 1.0 chassis.

just save up an get the 2.0 roller or 3.0 alot cheaper in the long run. and atleast u get the whole car.

there is like 21 or something changes from the 1.0 to the 2.0.

your choice, just trying to help you make the right one...

Differences: IMO not worth it with the 3.0 out. You can find 2.0 around 200...

Chassis
Front and Rear Arms
Rear Diff Case
Center Diff Mount
Rear Hubs
shock towers
Front and Rear Shocks
F/R CV Driveshaft Set
Rear CV Drive shaft
Servo Saver
Links
Radio Tray
Brake Disc

The 2.0 is bigger,
