So I finally got my exotek chassis,garodisc all 3 on with clutch basket and saddle. I also added 3.5oz on the front and it runs AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The handling is 100 times better. Still need the stage two but man it's like a new truck. I wanna give a special thanks to coyote,craigmba, and the other top helpers herrr. I have learned a lot from this site and I hope many others will soon.

I can now confirm the following:
1. RTR shock screws have been thread locked.
2. RTR diffs have just enough oil to coat the gears. Drained them as best I could to replace with my oil and hardly any came out.
3. Getting the diffs out of this thing is a pain in the a$$!
4. RTR motor with 25c 2s Lipo provides better than expected performance. Comparable to Castle Sidewinder SCT system. Soft launch control is default setting. Gearing is just right for top speed on most medium sized tracks. May want to go up a couple teeth for a larger 1/8 track.
5. RTR steering servo is plenty fast enough. Turn the dual rate all the way down.
6. Check all fasteners on RTR. Found several that were not tightened all the way, including wheel nuts.

It adds another slipper pad to help with the poor stock slipper setup. So that you can actually adjust your slipper without having to have it "locked down"

Thanks for the great info. I will look into them. I am finding limited info on them right now. How will the viper esc compare to the mmp I'm running. Do you recommend the viper pro gauge? I saw on the viper forum that the 1st toros are sensor less and they are releasing a sensored version later..... Any thoughts?
