I have a lipo TOP Photon and a CEFX Photon - each have very strong merits. I looked at the CEFX solution as an option for tuning as many of the same parts are used with both cars. I can turn the same lap times with each but with their own characteristics of drivability.

The CEFX chassis generated more steering and traction even with same shock, spring, roll center and spacing that its TOP counter part. The CEFX felt more forgiving & drive it harder and TOP felt more aggressive & nimble. Both are wickedly fast.

Depending on what I am looking for I can have both options. This is my second race event out with the Photon (Tq worthy on both weekends) and the first for the CEFX. More time will tell. We have a large event coming this weekend for Memorial Day weekend (Jackson RC).

Too bad I wont be making the Reedy Race - I think I have two good cars to be competitive with.
