Optionals, actually I am no fan of optionals but as a team driver it is my duty to test things (a nice duty though.... hehe). I only use Serpent orginal option parts:

* The pro brake pads, works good almost no wear but the steel brake plate seems to wear instead (but cheaper to replace). I use the pro plate with holes.

* The middle axle alu support, good but not a must have....

* The radiotray and chassi alu support, really stiffens up the car and makes chassi bend less during a crash, a must have!

* The front alu levers for the anti-rollbar, a must have!

* The new rear rollbar, makes the rollbar action more accurate and no play, I recomend to try this one if traction is decent.

Another tips (I have used it the last weeks) is to use a longer inner pin in the rear driveshafts (11.7mm instead of 9.7mm) as this decreases the wear of the rear diff steelparts. These pins was used in the S-705 and Impact differentials and seems to work, make sure they are perfectly centered though.

Good luck!
