Are the shock towers nylon? Looks like maybe two different mounting points? I like that they have holes in them to cut down a little a weight up there. Looks like they’ll be easy to move forward and back on the rails for wb and tuning options too.

Yes nylon shock towers to keep cost down. Wheelbase adjust is same as SCX10 method with more holes in rear.
All CNC parts would have put the retail price way up. So I have used metal only where it's needed. Bumper mounts are aluminium, rear one is 3 piece so it can be short or long. C hubs and knuckles are aluminium. But no more tiny splines and no clamping screw.

Is there a release date?

SSD is imo one of the best companies out there.
Best high quality parts since day 1. I recently purchased the 1.9 champions. Internet pics do not do justice

Any hint on pricing yet.

I’m guessing just off retail pricing on the major components around $350-400. How far off am I?

I keep telling my wife that I am done buying more kits. I guess I'm just going to have to keep a close eye on the tracking and check the mail before her, when it arrives.
