name me a car you don't have to undo screws on the chassis to get a diff out.

My issue isn't so much the two additional screws, as it is the need to remove the suspension block. I've found when wrenching at the track it's easier to have those parts stay together. I'm not saying this gearbox won't work, or that it takes forever to disassemble, I'm saying there is a better design that could be utilized and imo should be for a new car design.

Dnx8 case opens without a chassis screw. I don't understand the challenges... You guys support the car, that's fine, I like it too!

Switching gears a bit, I saw in the AMR overview video that the innermost pill position on the rear c/d-block wasn't usable due to the arms contacting the gearcase. Do you think there is enough material left on the case to sand it down (and/or the arm itself) to unlock that option?

I don't want it to seem like I'm trying to poopoo this car. I like conversing about design features. I am quite opinionated, but I can do a better job of diplomatically expressing those opinions.

I just saw it available for 699€. Why should I expend my money in an unproven car when I have top brand cars for the same price?

I love the look of this!! I think I'm pulling the trigger on one. Does she come with all gold fasteners ?
