My first question on building it is, what thickness of t-plate does it come with? I think Ive heard like .63" or something, whats the next size up? Is that something like a .73"? How will changing the t-plate (stiffer or softer) effect the handling of the car? Thanks.
Weylin,
It comes with a .63, just a tad softer than what I run. I usually run the .75 t bar. I found it reduces the body roll, which bleads off corner speed. It will also recact faster when transitioning from corner to corner. You will love the car. Ryan is having very good luck with his. I'm debating on getting the reflex 12 just because it looks cool, but I will probably just buy some plates to fix the current l3/hybrid thingy I have. Racing Saturday?
