Hi and welcome to what is the F1 of model car racing!!

The 977 Viper WC edition has all the good hop ups already in the kit and so there is nothing you really need to buy extra apart from the obvious spring sets etc. Spares wise is again the norm with pulleys, belts, arms and 2sp gears being key items to keep in the pit box. Start with the kit setup and go kick some RX8 butt lol.

You mean Tekin RX8?, then you need to go for the 977e.
If you mean Xray, I can understand why you ask for upgrades.....
But really you don't need them.

Does the 977WC come with additional parts on top of the standard 977 or does it come with the new parts instead of the standard 977 parts?

I want to buy some spares, but if the kit already comes with extra parts, I won't bother buying them.

I'm referring to these new parts:

The pictured parts will be used in the build...There will be no spares other than normal.

I noticed the manual shows that the steering servo arm should be at a slight angle towards the front of the car, wouldn't this cause steering geometry to unbalanced speed/torque between right and left?

Everything is at 90 degrees except the steering servo arm.. I've seen other cars that had slight angles on the steering servo arms but that angle would match the angle the arm connected to, which on the 977, doesn't seem to be the case. Am I making a big deal out of nothing? just adjust my epas, subtrim and be done with it?

The designer has all of that information on his CAD file, he can see how the car goes together before any parts are made. If its that way its because the designer designed it that way. Thruts me, its right... Besides, the radio has servo trim, so it doesn't matter that the arm is at a slight angle, you just use the trim on the radio to set the steering straight.

It's more simple than that!! The servo horn is not 90 degrees to the servo but it is 90 degrees to the servo saver arm. It's as designed and as far as I know the same on all similar designs on the market.

At GLARCRC your going to want to get a set of the standard front &rear upper and lower arms. The WC comes with the hard arms and they don't work at GlARCRC. You will also need some different springs and a soft front bar and a hard rear bar.P>M me and I give give you a parts list to get you going.
