What's the difference between the Evo F1 and version before it?

​​​​​​Basically without getting super detailed, Evo has the 2016 upgrades included. Evo USA spec adds aluminum chassis.

Does anyone have a carbon axle for ball diff I can buy from them?

A couple of months ago, the stub axle came out of mine. I glued it with CA as that’s what I had at track. I checked back then and they were out of stock in HK and USA.

Tonight it came unglued again and I checked both sites and still no stock.. wow!

This time I’m epoxied it, but would like to get a replacement.

I see 2oz on here a few times for front weight. What are you using to get that much on the front end? I can only get 2 wheel weights side by side under the steering rack. No room to even get close to 2 oz. Any advice is appreciated.

Yeah agreed, a proper Rwd , independent suspension F1. I'd like to see Roche or x-ray make a proper version with their quality parts. FGX is a good concept but it would be cool see a proper build quality version made. Use TC gear diff and bulkheads, outdrives, just need the hubs sorted to be able to use current F1 tires. Front ends could be carried over from current pan card but really might as well develop the front to match independent rear.
