You won't see much of a difference going to a D09, but the D10 is faster on high traction surface. If you have some money burning a hole in your pocket, the d10 is a good car. However, the d08 is still a good car. Now, if you had a D07, I'd say to definitely upgrade.

Good to know. I was kinda leaning toward the 10 as an upgrade, but how does it do Outdoor on Med traction asphalt?

If you are going to upgrade I highly recommend the D10. I run on different asphalt tracks from low to high grip and the car has worked great everywhere. At my home track I am 3-4 tenths faster per lap and overall about 6 seconds faster than my D09.

Hi all,

Raced my D08 yesterday but had a bad crash. The upper deck broke. Anyone has a spare standard upper deck and willing to sell? Part number is A-01-P30799. Alternately, can any other top deck fit? Please PM me. Thanks.

What is the internal ratio of this chassis?
trying to figure out a FDR and can’t seem to figure out where to find the internal ratio

The VBC D-08 has a 1.9 internal radio. I used an FDR of 3.80 for 17.5 stock sedan on my club's indoor carpet track. Out track was quite small at the time.
