Cant wait to get one. Ryan was at my track this last weekend. Hoping to get his setup. The car looked great in person.

I am looking forward to trying the chassis and side pods at first. I already have the rear hubs upgraded, just want to try a little at a time I think.

I may hold off on the slipper and topshaft as I just put in the titanium topshaft. Curious how all the front end changes will feel, extra adjustability is always appreciated.

After removing the slipper bits and no chassis as I already cut mine, this is what I would buy to convert my LD2 to LD3 spec, comes out to 108 pounds or $132 with the current exchange rate. Prices are in pounds from the Schumacher site, DiscountRC doesnt have most LD3 parts listed yet.

U8612- REAR WISHBONES MED FLEX 8.33
U8611 - ALLOY REAR SUSPENSION STRAP 9.99
U8613 - REAR OUTBOARD PIVOT PIN (PR) 3.33
U8614 - REAR INBOARD PIVOT PIN (PR) 3.33
U8616 - S2 REAR SHOCK MOUNT 13.33
U8615 - S2 FRONT SHOCK MOUNT 9.99
U8638 - ALLOY FRONT LINK MOUNT 9.99
U8644 - FRONT BUMPER 4.99
U8634 - FRONT WISHBONES MED FLEX (PR) 8.33
U8547 - WISHBONE PIVOT BUSH (4PCS) 3.33

Is the LD3 chassis (U8609) the same length as the LD2 chassis (U8199)?

Do the front three holes of the LD3 side pods (U8610) align with the front three holes of the LD2 side pods (U8005)?

Is the dirt spec the one to get for high bite clay? Dirt specs are always confusing. Does anybody race these on dirt anymore?
