hey KO, does the Tech car use its own arms/hubs, etc..? looks like it in the pix ive seen. i think thats the main reason i am leaning towards the 415... i already have a stack of parts!

now returning to your regularly scheduled fish program....

Im thinking the tamiya and tech will interchange all parts but for the chassis parts I will have to wait and find someone with a 415 to make sure but looking at photo's they will be close.

and leaning to the 415 might just be best for parts issue

I post some decent setup a while back...not sure if it works at your track though.
Thanks GTO2
