You got me I did forget about the aluminum servo horn as the stocker is a junker for the steering. And the V2 tower does make a HUGE improvement (not sure how I forgot that since I have run tons better my last 2 races since adding it). I don't personally use the +2 hubs and the wheels rub a tad but not enough to crack or break anything. Got a split center diff mount on the way, couldn't pass on the super deal that I happened upon. Also got some titanium pieces used off fleabay so figured why not, pretty sure a driver of my skill won't tell the difference. I wiuld reccomend the shock mod (drilling the caps) I race against guys that don't have it done and it seems to make a difference-helps that I have somebody at track to build them for me also.

I got a question how many of you run the carbon shoes on the truck, do you run them all the time or only for certain track condition?

Keeps the webbing in the wheels from rubbing. The V2 shock tower is a good upgrade too! The outer shock mounting hole really lets the truck soak up the bumps even more than it does stock. The truck also seems to rotate a bit easier in the corners with it. The split center diff mount is a great upgrade, but not completely necessary. It really is nice though! Well worth the $$. Other than that, just make sure you go through the truck when you get it and give it a good rebuild. The little Chinese girls don't do the best job building them at the factory.
