I think the chassis and t bar design on the 104w-gp would likely be better (having as much grip as a 104 x1 but being more durable)

Or you could stick to the pro (or pro black special) which both have the same hopups (just the black special has them in black instead of blue). You will need to find a frp chassis and top deck though which will cost about the same in the end as just going the f60 or wgp route.
yep just noticed the F104WGP...looks nice except the front end.....rest looks like the X1
also the black special has full alloy parts as where the pro does not.....you will still need the alloy motor plate etc...

the f104wgp is around $10 more than the black special...either way i will sill have to buy wheels and tires for them both
having said that.....i could just buy the f104 front end first and is the rear end wider than the f104??

thanks j-pap for your help
