After many years of 12th scale racing and 2 years racing with the 5.1 I'm doubting.
I've got two R5.1's and I want to have an inline update on my R5.1's
I think the Assocaited Alluminium is pretty weak, and the pod or the motormount will bend with (hard) crashes.... I really don't like that. I can work with the pod bending, but I dislike the motormount bending. I think it's to weak.
But I really like the rest ofthe complete car, the front end, the dampers, all of it!

Now Markus Mobers has it's update from On Point, and I really really dislike the collor, and dislike the damper tubes. I never had a problem with the Associated side damper. But I can understand that this pod will deffently tweak less easy, and I hope the Aluminium is stronger.

But the Assocaited update still has the weak aluminium pod. But then again it's nice and blue (I know it's not a good point, but I just love the blue) and has the nice side damper. And mabe I could by a Team Tamale Motormount....

What would you choose or advise me.

Regards
