As I mentioned in my build review, the standard raceberry chassis is much stiffer than the kit v5 so I'll be putting the soft raceberry on & save the standard chassis for carpet and large nitro tracks

Some nice photos in your blog of the conversion! looking at your photos and the REDrc ETS photos it looks like VW was running the softer chassis at the ETS event.
