[QUOTE=Martin Crisp;10074954]I don't think it is obsolete....as certainly changing the oil makes a difference in the way the car handles. For me i don't tend to vary much from the 800 weight oild, but for other drivers they will go as high as 2000 and more. I think it depends on the rest of your setup and what you are trying to get the car to do.

How long run the gear?





The chassis that came with both my kits the standard and the LE are 2.25mm.

No reason to not try both the flex upper deck and the 2.25mm chassis.
