I just received a new pod plate and although it had the right part number and overall appearance the screw holes were slightly different. RC parts aren't perfect but for a while there I thought I had received the wrong part. I was able to install it by being, uhm 'careful,' but am shocked by how far off it is. Anybody had this experience?

Also, this was the last plate in stock at either Genesis or Roche and now Genesis doesn't even list a pod plate for the P10. What's up with that?

I think there is a P10 and a P10evo. Could that be the difference you are experiencing?

I actually like running the steering rack on the CRC rubber tires. It produces less ackerman, and since in WGTR we are normally using full lock to get into tight corners, using the rack will allow for the outside tire to turn more. I tried taking the rack out and thought it turned less aggressively on corner entry. So I personally, don't see the advantage of removing it other than we are all more familiar with the direct servo method. It is certainly worth testing.

Roche sells a 1/12th scale locked axle. You'll also need another clamping hub. That's the shortest path.

220132 per the manual isn't a part number on either Shop.Roche.USA or on Genesis. I've been through this numerous times with the P10 Evo manual, RocheUSA, and Genesis, the part numbers do not match. A P10 Evo lower pod plate does not show up on the RocheUSA site. RocheRC.com does list 220132 as the P10 Evo part.

Again, Genesis doesn't even list a lower pod plate for the P10 Evo.

RocheUSA doesn't even list the P10 Evo as a kit!!
