PDS-2344 180.oz of torque .13 S @ 60 degrees.
The difference is the 2344 has 69.oz of torque more and is only .05 Seconds slower.
I don't think I'll notice .05 seconds.
I know I'll notice the 69.oz of torque.
That's why I stick with the 2344 instead of the 2343.
In what situation will you notice 180 oz of torque on a 1:10 on-road car??

Yes. The roll bars are excellent tools to help shift balance of available traction from front to rear or rear to front.

Perhaps it's a misprint or perhaps it could be true that Josh and Ralph used 2344 servos. But I've always been told fast speed for steering and torque for throttle / brake. In fact a lot of people here used the Futaba S9550 digital servo in their gas cars which is even weaker than the 2343 (not 2344).

Yeah, that's what I've heard also.
.13 to .08 seconds.
.05 seconds isn't that big a difference to me.
I don't think I'll notice the speed.
I like the extra torque just in case I hit a board and something starts binding.
Remember, this is just my preference.
I feel that .13 is fast enough for my driving skills.

I have not broken any parts that are commonly broken on that track besides the rear shock tower. But like they say, when it rains, it pours ! I thought it was only the tank but when I checked the chassis carefully, I could already see it bend slightly in the middle and in the front. I guess the car took a real hard hit directly at the chassis.

Don't rub it in, please...

If Serpent would give me parts for free to test, then it's OK. But not !

I just posted up on Josh's thread.
We'll find out what servos he uses on all his nitro cars.

Too bad Ralph Burch isn't on this forum.
I'd like to get some tips from him.
What happened to Salven?
He was posting here, but he hasn't been here in awhile.

I never really liked the silver on my cars, dont get me wrong, it really looks good, but it isn't me.... I am rather going to run the blue and orange, i think I will also run a neon green, But I dont know. maybe neon orange, but it may be too much orange.
