Arenīt there many users of the EVO IV yet, or simply the 415 is the favorite?
What I am interested to know is how the striping of the front gears and rear gears is going. Is there any striping or this problem has been fixed.
Has anyone tried a oneway and or a spool upfront?
Thanks,

John - my 414 has been great for me, but the 415 is definitely superior. I was skeptical at first since both are similar: belt drive, same suspension arms etc. You won't be disappointed with the 415. The only must have part not included in the 415 kit would be the A-bridge front arm mount.
About the 415 vs the Evo4. I just got an EVO4 (thanks TamiyaUSA!!) and I'm also trying to source the new suspension arm set for the 415. I'm going to do a back to back to back comparison between a 415, an evo 4 and a 415 with new suspension within the next few weeks. It will take a while to get enough parts/electronics to get 3 chassis running at the same time.
