i weighed the 1000mah AAA pack , it was 35 grams heavier than the li-po. when my parts come next week, i will build another spare front diff, then i can weight them both, and let you know what the difference is. at this point, its the lightest my car has ever been, now time for me to get into shape

Yes, I got the same and didn't realise that you need to have the lower flying
wing arm, carbon brake bracket and rear bulkheads to go with it ... now my rear G4S is a G4+!!!

what i was meant to say was dont know why team magic placed such weak part inside, i looked them and threw them away, too thin, dont have spanner to adjust, plus way too short!

so i used titanium product from my other RC car!

This is just a note to say thanks to Sam @ Raceday. These folks truly live up to their motto " we keep you racing on raceday " On Wednesday I blew the one way in my 2speed. Raceday Hobbies is in Arizona & I am in NY. It usually takes 4 days min to get parts from there to here. After playing Phone & email tag late Wed & Early Thursday I was concerned that I wouldn't be able to run in this Sunday's trophy race. It's now 1:37 Friday & I have just come in from making a check run with the new 2 speed part installed. In short all I can say is that the service from Raceday is AWSOME!! Thanks guys.

Whats mods did you need to do to make it fit? How are you holding it in place? I was thinking about this same setup but with there reg. Part number is 45000. It looks to be bigger then yours. Who makes the one you have?
Thanks in advance
