Any and all help is appreciated thanks.
The .1 plastic is more flexible and does not break as easily, but at the expense of wearing out quicker when it comes to slop. Most cannot tell any difference with the slop and the .1 has better traction. Definitely stick with the .1 chassis and towers, but the rest could go either way. However, the shocks, slipper, and cva's that come with the .1 are very key components.
