It seems like CRC is the only company that puts factory level talent in the WGT-R class. In my opinion, this is why all the big races seem to go to CRC in this class.
Locally, all versions of the CRC car have proven fragile. Most guys that have tried them have moved on due to frequent front end breakage. I bet dollars to donuts that if you walked our track right now, you could find at least 1 broken king pin and one of those little white spring retainers.
. If I recall, some racers also had issues yanking the side links off the chassis (pivot ball screw ripped out of chassis)
Most of our local WGT-R racers now run the Xray X10. The front end is bullet proof and euro style ball diff(w/ thrust race) is actually usable on black carpet.
