If you actually look at my original post it was a question, not a statement, which Adam has provided the information.

It might help checking results next time, as the assumption was there were poor results from durango

thanks

and can you fit the shorty losi lipo?
Yep can vouch for this car, you won't be disappointed if you like a car that has a direct feel to it

If you went down the R route, you don't necessarily have to start changing the pivot blocks to alloy straight away. If you chose to, wait until the rear pivot block is available with the inserts then you will have the anti squat options. Only thing I would say is as well as a spares package, if you are running out doors get some of the rubber shock & drivetrain boots.

The V3 isn't exactly new. It is building on the best of the existing two platforms (410 & 410R). Sharing a very high percentage of common parts. The changes are simple and quite subtle. So I don't think you need to look at this as a 'First Batch', and therefore very unlikely that you'll come across any issues over and above what you might expect from any high production kit.

Yes focus on the V3, one more question: do the shock boots fit the Big bore shocks and sorry if this has already been asked

The full fat version no if i had the choice of buying the R version or the V3 now i'd go for the V3 theres nothing to upgrade . The R version would need the alloy pivot blocks at some point i think and the rear gearbox holders so in the long run it it would probably work out cheaper plus you get big bores with the V3 just my opinion though

not forgetting top F4 national

In 2010 I ran a SX2 and B44. In the mid-west I put in 2C's and 2D's - F4
In 2011 I ran a DEX410. I put in 4B's and a C. - F2

You could credit it purely down to me getting better, but it has to be partly the car also to go up 2 grades.
