On a side note $70.00 for aluminum shock caps
I was just checking to see what was avail because I picked my xb up previously loved, very clean and little run time, But I ran it saturday night for the first time and 2 of the four caps were weeping. I gave them a little snug up today so we'll see.
By the way, It did drive incredible! I got to the track early enough for about 20 laps of practice before racing and my first qual I was able to stay on pace w/the top 4 guy's. Soooo much fun!
I did finish off the wing that came w/it tho....This thing jumps like a gazelle!

I've modified (Dremel) the kit RR holder to allow it to be mounted directly to the chassis, as i'd already removed the plastic rear section of the chassis for the ralls racing under-gearbox weight. I ran the car with the dropped gearbox and modified kit hangers on my slippy and it was excellent. Really helped lock in the rear of the car.

I've now got the new optional +2 hangers and they raise the mount points higher/closer to the outdrive by 2mm. really hoping this helps to lock in the rear end more on the slippy stuff with the dripped gearbox. Testing Sunday, will feedback.
Anyone else done this yet?
