So I'm looking to build a racer with a graphite chassis as a base. Ive got RCCW shock towers, trans brace, and battery holder.
This was the first car I actually owned so I finally got around to reviving it. Parts not listed were already owned.

Battery brace: RCCW
1/4" Polished UJ's: Ebay
Stainless steel screws: fastenal
Front Sway bar: Ebay
Bell Cranks: Jconcepts
Black re-re Motor plate: Tower
JP front bumper: ebay
Five spoke front & rear wheels: JC racing
Anaconda tires: Traxxas (I like the tires so dont bash)
motor gaurd: Ebay (will probably upgrade to a black one from RPM)
Robinson Racing RC10gt Idler
Aluminum Differential gear: Dhawk

The nose brace rods will connect to my signature standing low profile servo mounts. That will be the only way to package a standard size LiPo or 6-cell battery.
I originally developed that design to fit 7-cell NIMHs without the hump in my RC10....

the build looks awesome. I would have one minor suggestion, that is to put some spacers in the shocks under the piston heads. shoot for level rear arms, and slightly above level on the front end. it will give it a more 'serious' attitude.
