Speaking of which, I did try the high mounted ESC (I feel like a loser), and I liked it. I removed the 14g from the rear triangles, and it was great. Much crisper through the turns, and more rear bite. I ended up getting rid of the 1mm washers on the rear links, and ran them as low as possible.

As long as there aren't any huge jumps, the tapered AE 1.6 pistons, and K springs are golden. As traction comes up I do find myself wanting to go to a stiffer spring out back though. I keep pulling up the inside front tire coming out of turns. I'll see if I can find a set of take-offs from the RB6 guys.
I still need to buy a rear t plate and make it into a shelf. I would use a used one, but I am not sure servo take would stick.
