No car is perfect...but I have not driven a car that is this easy to drive and you can feel the setup changes right away after making them. Only thing I don't like is the toe blocks rubbing as we have some hard tracks here, and you have to change them and the chassis often. Other than that gear boxes, diff gears and plastics all hold up very well.

Thanks for adding that update. I was wondering what was going on with the D819 kits out of stock everywhere.

Regarding the RS version,

Does shortening the chassis by 2mm bring the chassis to the same length as the 817?

What's the advantage they are trying to gain by shortening by 2mm?

Do the diff input gears need revising?

so the e819 is 2mm longer then e817/v2

There’s a live video on hb Facebook of ronnefalk talking about car.

he said the gears don’t wear as fast cause more contact patch on gears.

Found M2C zero rebound emulsion caps. Not sure if I'll get to the track this weekend but I'll let you know how they did when I do. They feel great in hand.
