[QUOTE=Cain;14773081]I have become a professional package wrapper these days with the various gifts that come in from Amazon. I should charge a fee seeing how well I wrap versus my wifes attempts.

looking forward to hearing more about this version. The big thing I am curious on is with the changes how well it will work on the more rough loose conditions we can see here. Also, if these changes will make there way into an SCT410.4 version.

Spring talk...
These are the springs recommended to have in your box (softest to hardest):
Front: Grey, Black, Pink
Rear: Yellow, orange, Red
Kit Springs are Black Front and Orange Rear, so if you buy the .4 kit, you'll have 2 of the 6 pairs right away.
Remember these are the Low Frequency (LF) springs and they work with the older versions of this car too. So even if you aren't in the market for a .4 yet, I suggest grabbing the springs.

Typically on loose, blown out tracks we will lower the spring rate to gray front and yellow rear. This will allow the car to roll a little more (generate more side bite) and it also better on the bumps. Really bumpy tracks we also go to fewer and larger hole pistons. We will have setup sheets posted from Ryan's and Joe's buggies soon.

On the .3, I ran 500/550 with 3x2.1 pistons, and the black\orange LF springs. I wanted to try the grey\yellow LF springs, but snowfall hit before I could.
I have a feeling whatever our current spring\piston\oil combinations have been on the .3 buggies, will be similar on the .4. Then adjust from there.
The caveat to that being, the guys that haven't done any testing with the LF springs on the .3 buggies. If you haven't, and still running the OG buggy springs, start at 1 color softer than the buggy springs when going to the LF. And you'll also want to play with oils. I dropped my oil 200CST when I switched to the LF springs.
Basically, the guys that have already played and test-n-tuned the LF springs, and found what they liked, will be at an advantage when switching to the .4 VS. the guys that haven't.

Looking forward to seeing the setup sheets.
I club race on a true off-road track, bumps, holes, rooster tails. It's alot of fun. So I can probably help a bit with blown out conditions.

I haven't gotten to play with any of the new stuff yet as it's off season for me, but I was running Pink and Red/Orange on my car. Matt gave good feedback. I would definitely start there.

Not sure. I hear no, but I know a few people have tested them on the rear of the SCT. The LF springs for the front are too tall, and we wouldn't be able to get to some ride heights required for sct.
