Also if there is anything that is needed to get the car ready for rubber carpet racing let me know.
Some of the lower profile lipos fit no problem, like the TP 3200, SMC 4100, Orion 3800, 5200. As for the larger profile lipos you can mill or just dremal the bottom of the middle right bulkhead were it goes over the battery or you can get the new lipo topdeck with new middle right bulkhead...

The Cyclone TC will work great out of the box for rubber carpet racing. As for spares I would get steering knuckles, castor blocks and I would suggest getting the original cyclone front arms to replace the TC arms as the TC arms are not a strong as the original ones plus I hear they give you more steering.
