Haven't started building it yet because I have a 1/10 project on my bench to get out of the way first, but it looks like a nice car.
It's pretty good out of the box. I never run stiffer than silver side springs most times it's green or black. I most always use 10k in the side tubes and a protoform AMR body.
The car is a bit on the heavy side, I would recommend getting aluminum screws from fastener express.
I also cut a 2mm thick chassis for the 12r5.2. It saves 12 grams of total weight on the car. I still sell them if you are interested at a later point.
