Axial blacks all around? Or something stiffer on the rear corner for less TT? I'm curious because I have Losi gold, gray and white's and the AX blacks to try.

**EDIT** I saw your answer a few pages back

Torque twist really has not been an issue with this chassis.

I guess I was thinking "old school" suspension setups. I'll give the new Axial springs a shot this week.

I think you will be happy with the springs.

I am going to use the bigbores for my quad rear shock setup on my HPI MTDT. I think I am going to get a Brood 35t brushed motor so I can keep the Mamba micro pro esc in there. I like the performance with the Goat 3s (when it's not burning up) but I like the size and weight of the micro esc.

Tekin FXR is very small, light weight and works great!

Yea I like FXR's, I run duals in my XR. I already have the Mamba micro and it is just as small or maybe even smaller than the FXR.

My Gatekeeper proto-type steering kit showed up today. It looks great, I can't wait to use it. The VP zero ackerman knuckles I ordered shipped today, so in a few days it should be operational. Here are some pics of it, it's not a whole lot different than some of my home made attemps. I will post some more pics once it's on the rig. Thanks again to Gatekeeper and Jdawg for this awesome setup!

Oh please post pics when you get that set-up, I hope that goes into production. Looks like that plate situates the servo between the front links? leaves me thinking where to lay a battery.

the battery is velcroed beside the servo under the plate. Not sure what size bat your running but 500mah turnigy fits perfect. Hope that helps

Not yet, I have been busy tinkering with my VP-10 comp rig. I got the VP zero ackerman knuckles and am still waiting on batteries.

I am not sure when or if they are going into production. I was lucky enough to win mine as part of a contest on here held by Jdawg.
