there was a thread similar to this where somebody suggested a stick plastic sheet that you could get at a home improvement store, and in varying thicknesses. then it would just stick to the bottom of the chassis. since the chassis gets scratches anyways most people won't run a full chassis protector on ⅛ and treat the chassis as a disposable item after it has been worn enough.
Unless your running indoors on smooth damp clay.
DE Racing makes some sick skid plates though.

I have this season skipped the use of skid plates. Some of the local pros don't use it, as they inflict on the ride height adjustment.
Why bother so much protect the underside of the chassis?
None of the real pros use it.

Not a pro racer, just a club racer. But just getting into the myriad of tuning my car.

Are the 3.0 shocks a straight bolt on affair to the 2.0 or is there more work and parts involved?
Thanks

The 3.0 shocks are longer than 2.0 shocks. They would require 3.0 towers to maintain the correct up travel and droop.

Is there a Losi 8ight T 3.0 E thread? Yesterday on impulse I bought one and converted it and built it at the track. Lost the TQ by 3 seconds and smashed everyone in the mains. The truggy was so much better than my dex408t. I noticed it can with the aluminum servo saver top half. Ironically, I qualified 2nd in e buggy and was cruising to finish second at least and my servo saver top half broke in my e buggy. I didn't even crash. The part # tlr244021 seems to be out of stock in almost every where. Is this a common part that needs upgrades?

The 3.0 arms are also different. I would highly recommend buying a 3.0 if possible. I have driven a 2.0 in the past an never really cared for it, but the 3.0 drives very different in the best way possible. I just cant imagine that changkng the shocks and tower wojld get you anywhere neer to the 3.0....
