What is the difference? Just setup for boring high speed flat tracks? Body has a nice paint job.

I like the body. I hope they sell it in the U.S. If they came out with the buggy that means the truggy is coming out soon.

This kit is really just a 2.0 with a high speed track set up The only real changes i can see is the shock tower and probably a little caster change, Maybe gearing, other than that... |

Dont worry soon enough it will work its way to the USA:batman::batman:
|
Nobody hit the panic button, they basically just laid the shocks down and gave it a body and an extra suffix on the name.
Along with the predone 'shock mod'...dunno why we can't have that over here :rolleyes: Looks like they played with the caster and kingpin inclination maybe and included the adj. hing pin braces already on the car/in the kit. Anyone know what our caster and kingpin inclination is now on the 2.0? They mentioned the 5deg. and 12deg. caster on the EU; I don't even know what the current 2.0 specs are. |

Cylinder head looks very very Novarossi-esque (like the current Toro/+4 machine work/top fin).
