You don't really believe that, do you?

The Pros don't run out of the box vehicles.

The following was posted by AE, but it holds true for all the factories.

"Team Associated are testing some new option parts for the RC8B that at this time include prototype shock towers and modified RC8 arms for new shock mount locations in the arm, rather than on risers. At this point all parts are hand-made prototypes. Due to limited availability, the drivers that will be using custom parts for the World Championships are: Robert Batlle, Ryan Cavalieri, Neil Cragg, Craig Drescher, Ryan Maifield, J.R. Mitch, Richard Saxton

After the Worlds Champs race, Associated will consider which option parts work the best and will be released for sale to our customers".
