I'm guessing on another aspect, but there are teeth in the front suspension bulkheads which might be for adjustable caster. That would be MUCH appreciated!

My only fear is F/R weight bias. Most RWD r/c cars have a distinct rearward bias, but this car has the battery extending fairly far forward.

p.s.-I MUST HAVE ONE.
I agree it looks to be for castor adjustment.
Only thing I don't care for is the gear pitch.
Looks really cool otherwise.

I also agree...I must have one.
