1.) Show me Pictures of these cars in the winners Circle.



Go look at race results and you'll see multiples of them in the top 10 of the A-Main. Google is a wonderful tool.

Most importantly, support support support, if there is a part on the r/c make it available to replace. Nothing worse than not being able to replace broken parts! Now Redcat has done a great job getting most the parts available to their customers, but there is still one part they don't have and no one there seems to respond to my emails! It is circled below!

Pivot balls a weak point???? They are much stronger than a C-hub design or design that is currently on the hurricane! They would be a great improvement.

Status: offline 		Sorry for the delay on this reply, been a crazy month for us. Too many tradeshows and simply not enough time in the day to do everything.

We have put the PBS suspension on hold mainly due to the cost to make the mold so the PBS is plastic. When I first posted the info here, there was a lot of feedback on the aluminum.

I felt it did not make sense to spend the money on a new plastic mold when we are very close to making some major changes on the Hurricane anyway. Its about that time, to totally revamp that sucker and changing one thing that costs thousands of dollars did not make sense.

I can get the PBS suspension in aluminum and will order some next week. I expect it will take 40 days or so for us to have them in stock and no idea on pricing yet, but will let you know.

Darin

Status: offline 		The first post in this thread is what we can do. As you can see top and bottom front A Arms would be aluminum. There would not be a plastic option as the mold to make them in plastic is expensive.
