Rocket Racer: Yea, (definetly) get the MSXX over the MSX. If you do some research you might be able to find a MRE somewhere out there. MSXX is coming out real soon!

Guys,
Thanks for the earlier posts.

For stock class, I want a smooth 'easy-revving drive-train' and double one-ways and a second car specifically setup for stock class would be a nice to have item.
I just blew away a 2-week old Orion Katana derived Stock motor, not sure why.. it just stopped running after 5 minutes or so!! (no response from throttle inputs) and rear diffs came loose as well, so something must be binding somewhere .
Cheers to all

I've been running the 415 for a while now and I don't have even half the stuff you're getting. You should be good with spares for a long time, since half that stuff doesn't break especially if your running carpet all the time.

Wheel bearings, spur gears,front belt and a spare diff already built and ready to switch. If you are running mod or brushless all these parts will wear quickly. But, if you run stock no rush to buy these spares! Oh, and shock delrin and o-ring rebuild kit. The delrin makes for a smooth shock action but will wear overtime if you drive hard. Dirt getting into the moving parts is a large part of the wear\factor!
