Is the USA edition worth the small difference in price?

If you race on carpet, yes. It comes with the aluminum chassis as well as the CF chassis.

I would like to test the ATS rear suspension. I normally use the 3dgr RR block.
Should I change it to a more narrow version and adjust turnbuckles so it still has 3dgr Toe-In at the wheels?

I don't see nothing wrong with doing it that way. Depending on what block your changing it to, all your doing is lengthening the wheelbase a tad bit.

I'm looking for a set of R102043 c-hubs if anyone has some spares to sell. I can't find any in the US and I'm not sure I have time to order from overseas. Thanks!

Best thing to do is measure your track width with your standard setup. Then measure it with the ATS and try and match it up. Everything will be a little different in the rear end because you're taking the angle out of the arms. With a 3 block I would aim for a 2 block forward and rearward back there.

As far as finding a R102043 in stock anywhere....good luck. No one used the ATS system before Reedy therefore they weren't stocked much at all. Now there's this huge surge for these parts that are mostly sitting in Taiwan. Gonna take a little while to get them stateside. Watch here as they will have them first.

I managed to delaminate the nose of my 2015 R10, and am having a hell of a time finding a replacement chassis. So I'm considering converting up to an R11, as it seems that most parts are shared. But I'm having trouble identifying everything I'd need to make the conversion and was hoping someone here might be able to help out.

Is there a list of parts that I'd need to make the conversion without having to buy a whole new kit?

You will need to buy a new kit to go to an R11. It is worth it!

Had a feeling that'd be the case.

Thanks for the quick reply!

A heck of a lot less money as well. Get the 2017 though if you can. Much improved!

If I can find a great deal on the kit, I'll bite. But I only got half a season on the R10, and a new chassis is only $75.

I'm one of those unicorns that stays in the hobby on a budget (so I'm not terribly competitive either, just out there to have fun and win once or twice a year if everyone else is out sick).
