Now I just need to know how different it is so I can figure out I'd I should buy a new kit or upgrade my d815.

It seems to me they should include the JConcepts body, not the Proline body. The Ronnefalk low graphite tower would be nice too.
#38
I also wish they keep the carbon arm inserts that the v2 has.

I have an E817 and just finished assembly of the D817. Coming from AE cars I'm really impressed with how well thought out everything is. I saw a complaint about the suspension blocks and extra steps to get to the diff. While it is a little more work one thing this car won't do is leave you on the sidelines with a pulled out suspension pin. Something I've personally done on the RC8 more then once.
I can't wait to get this car on the track n xt week.

What's the deal with the new rear hubs? Any geometry change there?
