I love seeing the family stepping up, modding stuff, and working on better ways to do things. I always wanted those forward posts to be more centered in the car, but they ended up on the outside of the car because that was the only way to fit a GTB in the 'side pods' of the buggy chassis. LRP, Tekin, all the other speedos would fit fine, but Novak's popular enough we didn't want to cause issues. That is also the reason the chassis rails along the two-cell area are only 'half-height'. Of course now we're all running LiPo with the ESC in the center, but back in 2008 that wasn't the case.
EDIT: By the way, rock crawlers tend to have a bunch of various-length aluminum stand-offs, they work great for small projects and mods.
