I might eventually buy the TLR kit and upgrade the chassis, but as of now its not needed. I club race once a week and race a local points series once per month plus big events in Az. Been running it since Christmas. I'm biting on the heels of our local Team Durango/Team Tekin driver, stock chassis and all.
yes stock chassis works good after running mine on 8th scale size tracks for half a year stock chassis is twisted and rear shock tower (stock) bends from those big triples. bought new tlr chassis and long brace its even more dialed than before.
