I normally like a car with ALOT of steering, so i love 12th scale, since i normally run with alot of it (its hard to keep it straight on the straight, and its not because i am running bad or broken equiptment). However, you do have to be very smooth and you can't jam the car into the turn like a sedan, however line is just as important to go fast, although when a 12th scale is slightly off its more noticable than with a sedan, however when anything on carpet is off, its pretty evident when driving it.


racerdx- you place the shims inbetween the chassis and the bottom of the arm, you cant tell from the pictures, however if you have one in your hand it makes sense.

also the dynamic strut (ae new style) front end is alot harder to get right. last time i built one it took hours to get semi-good. in stock form it binds alot, and there are alot of fit problems with it. so you will end up having problems anyway...
