I spoke w/ Bruce on Tuesday. He said he should have the full kits, and conversion kits posted online next week. There is already a lot of interest in the car -- so make sure to get your orders in early.

You don't need extra front end or pod braces to just to make your car survive a race weekend .

We had a good showing in Vegas last year. In 1/12th Donny made the Modified and 13.5 show. Haynes was in the 13.5 show. We have five of us in Stock - most of any single 1/12th scale car - with Kenny finishing 3rd (1st of the non-black diamond cars) and myself in 5th after a good battle with Joel and Andrew. Dumas won WGT 10.5 and Joel and Kenny where on fire in WGT 13.5 and battled hard staying at the top of the heat.

The old school front end is still great. We always used it over the dynamic strut front ends prior to the formula. Only problem was the inconsistency in molds. That is why Bruce made the formula front end to move away from molds and into a completely machined front end.

If you are going to upgrade it, it would be well worth the wait for the new formula front end.

How hard is it to setup the front end (formula style) ?

I'm new to 1:12 but eager to learn. From everything on the market I like this car the best. My only concern would be the lack of setup information for this car.
