Frank- I took off the bumbper becuase I thought the bottom plastic base where the bumper sits wasn't level with the chassis.. I thought it sat lower. Obviously it doesn't. I'm still learning
Beeb- I've been thinking that. I'm almost 100% sure I won't tell the difference. I'm also trying to decide what ESC to get. I have a IPC 7.1 on my old car, but I kind of want to keep it for that car. I may just go with another 7.1. My first one took a beating, and I've never had a problem with it. The size of it is the only downside.
