Those are called "Phenolic washers" or something like that. It is just an insulator.

Not really. Just run Reedy 767's and you'll be good. The stock springs aren't that bad either.

Hey, what shocks do you run on your car? Do you recommend the Tamiya ones, and if so, what shock towers should I get...

Yeah, the tamiya shocks rule. I dont run them right now because I'm to lazy to order the stuff hahahahaha. But I think you have to get the PRP shock tower for the front. They have some positions that make the longer tamiya shocks work properly. The onyl problem is losi springs wont fit, so you'll have to get either xray, or the AE set of springs.

Thanks man, where can I get the PRP shock tower? Do I keep the rear shock tower stock (remember I have the RTR)?

When are you going to be in our neck of the woods

You can get them here I guess:

http://www.teamprpracing.com/

You can still run the stock rear tower, but why not get the cool new one . Some minor shimming/spacing might be required to give the correct angles and such. I haven;t had any experience with it.
