i havent really had a chance to try it out to much but i would imagine they balloon less however i also taped em.

stinkypinky thats good to know about the suspension. i never mentioned it but i did stiffen up my suspension not thinking it would affect performance all that much but i will put it back to about stock and see if that fixes my problem. GOOD OBSERVATION!!

I've got a 3.3, and does anybody know if a mt2 or RC10 body will fit correctly on it? i've got the new era wing on it, so there cant be too much empty space on the back. I'm getting tired of the Crowd Pleazers!
