RE: spent too much
Welcome to RC. It's trial and error a lot of the time. If I could do it again I would have bought an M18 over the MRS4, XXXNT over mt GT, and Serpent over BMT. 
You could be different, buy an RTR, and kick everyone's butt at the track for $500. Or try to.

track conditions changed, dried out quite a bit, and i am loving the buggy now. i have ordered the diff shafts to replace the lsd stuff, but haven't made any changes. guess i just had to get used to it a little bit. the motor is fast, replaced one of the shock bushings which cured the leaking shock. this buggy is a bit tougher than i thought it would be. i have a long double on my track that i rarely make, but attempt often. the buggy has taken some pretty hard licks so far.

Ignore the posts from such as uberchev alex with his useless "your brand is overrated" drivel. Just more hot air from somebody who spends way too much time on this site and who knows how many others.
Congrats on the sweet ride.

RE: spent too much
i've still not tried the 5-7-3 diff setup but the 600-350 shock oil i was running was definitely good
i never spent enough time with the car to get it right but i wont rubbish the brand, i just know i need to start using it again & make some changes that work
