I think the black mesh wheels are my favorite. I have the newer black six spoke but the mesh style is more race look.

how can I tell if my USGT tires are belted or not? They are marked CR-02 on tire wall.

I believe the belted tires are on gray rims.

I just did a quick search. You are right, only the gray ones are listed as belted. Thanks!

Simple,

How do you like those shock mounts? Do you find them better than the low profile and/ or the stock ones. Kinda interested in them because of the adjustability.

Sorry, I can't give an honest and meaningful repsonse.
Haven't had an opportunity to track test yet.
Definitely look trick -
Compression feels "stiffer", so I feel like the geometry has been altered - track testing will be critical, but I unfortuntely won't be able to complete any until possibly mid to late April.

I've been running them for a while. 100% agree it does feel stiffer with them. The car does feel like it corners flatter, but it's not a night and day difference. I do find however you cannot lean the shocks in as much as you may like before it begins to bind up the shock. I'm going to go back to regular shock towers this weekend just to see the difference. One downside is though they can bend in a hard crash.

The lowered RC Maker towers are really nice on the T4F'21

GT bodies should be run as a Modified Class or maybe even allow them to run in the TC Mod class. They look too good to be relegated to a spec class.

Right? TC stock and TC mod bodies are starting to look a bit better nowadays, but they still look like jellybeans. I'd love to see realistic cars moving at mod speeds and we can see what those bodies can really do.
