That's a nifty little trick, I'll have to try that out. Thanks

Just ordered up the new Evo kit. Wasn't in stock anywhere in the states so I decided to order it straight up from Russia. Looks like it has shipped but does anybody in here know how long it could possibly take? It's already been a week, just kinda wondering cuz I can't seem to get any tracking number. I'm not in a rush or anything, just wondering

It says the MMCX-v2 is a mid motor conversion for the A800x line. Will it also work on the A800A?

AT21ST-A

How are people using this new pivot ball? Are you drilling a hole in the P03? Does this compromise the stiffness of P03 and make the arm easier to pull out of the AT21ST-A?

LUCKY!! I preordered the kit once it became available on awesomatix use website. Ordered some titanium stuff as well. Cant wait to try this car, coming from a t4. Listening to Hanulec talk to other guys using the car and giving them suggestions is one of the main reasons i decided to get this car.
