I thought it was gonna be a simple upgrade with a few parts I want, but the new steering crank needs the tcxx bottom deck
update: just watched the video again. I think he said out of the box comes extra dogbones and spare parts

95 % of the racing I do is on carpet. My main concern with a car is how does it perform in a high bite situation (big race).
Very rarely would anyone want to run their battery that far back on high bite carpet.
Running that much weight rearward on carpet will make the car a pain to drive........on asphalt I can see the need.......carpet not so much.
But hey, I probably don't know what i'm talking about so by all means continue with excitement of a new car coming.
Maybe at a later date we can discuss why the motor was moved out 2.5mm just to make the new style motor mount work.............Which by the way it didn't look like Hara was running on his car.

With the difference in motor mounts, I wonder if Hot Bodies will create a Hara Edition TCXX that has all the exact same hardware that Hara was running at the IFMAR World Championships in Heemstede two months ago.

Or maybe they will have an "Upgrade Kit" with just the changes in hardware to make the TCXX exactly like Hara's at the IFMAR Worlds.

As far as batteries are concerned, I would try a shorty pack that could be moved forward/backward on the chassis to try different COG's.
