The differences between the cars was posted about a page back. The web specials arent going up in price, there is no price for them, because there are none avalible anymore from what it looks like. It would take a lot of money for me to sell mine, they are high demand.

I sold some orange parts a couple days ago, literally 1 minute after I posted them, Ko bought them, and I got 2 pm's from others...

Stick packs are okay if you are starting out or just bashing around. The NiMah packs require less maintenance. Once you get better or start racing, you probably want to move up to matched packs.

Plus if you assemble your own packs, they will fit in the battery slots, and give you a lower CG, and help performance a bit.

Default Front Bumper
As an alternative....

If you don't want to trim down your stock bumper....

The Xray front bumper is a perfect fit... body hole line up exactly...

If you're track doesn't have personnel transponder... Xray's has a bumper with a cut-out for the transponder.

They are made out of a grey material, I believe I heard it's teflon, but I'm not 100% sure...
