RE: Race Maxx
Have you looked at the Gorilla Maxx suspension? Nice aluminum arms(beefier uppers now), low shock towers, and the kit makes for a very clean four shock setup(or eight).
It would look killer with your alu. chassis.
I have it on my E Maxx (setup for going slow), and hope to have it for my T Maxx soon(setup low).

RE: Race Maxx
yeah i agree, that setup looks killa, I also could see its performance is mad, b/c of the shock placement, the fact that is close to the chassis makes for incredible stability, also the whole thing being lower

RE: Race Maxx
Creatin, no doubt there are better racers than the T Maxx. But you've gone so far with it already.
Unless you unload your T, just have it for the king of the non racing days(off track).
There's alot of good track MT's out now, so your choices are large.
While I have alu. arms on my E maxx and maybe soon for my T maxx, IMO alu. arms SUCK for racing(they bend!).
