I'm going to buy losi superdutys ball cups and HPI studs tomorrow but I'm pretty annoyed at haing to but ball cups I dont need just to get a shock shaft fastener, Any Ideas on an alternative solution. Everyone that I know is now running different ball cups, even the team guys. Advice please.

Many thanks Kristian
Hey Kristian, I boiled my ballcups in water while building my car, and have had only one pop in a head on crash after 30 or so runs. Try it out, may be the answer to your issues. Brought the water to a boil, and dropped them in for 3 minutes..
