Just that those wide axles are designed for putting high positive offset wheels (like off a B4, or Worlds re-re) onto a car not initially designed for them. Basically those wheels you're using don't need them, that's all I'm saying.

Thanks Bottom Feeder i am still learning i did not no the offset was different most of my race wheels and tyres are on rere wheels, b2/b3 and some proline wheels, the hpi wheels are mainly for show they are a bit fragile for racing. :)

Buggy looks really good, i just bought a graphite off a friend but I'm not sure weather to race it or shelfit, if i decide to run it are parts easy to find. I thought i would ask here as you look to have a runner.

with the re-re out all the parts for this chassis are readily available. Chassis can be found out there, mostly on ebay but they do come up in the b/s/t area once in awhile.

DemZ hello just as klavy69 said all but few parts are available from Team Associated i have made a front bumper and am looking for a undertray or may make some side pods and put a protective chassis skin. Hopefully will be ready for a meeting in January i will try and do a video of one of the qualifiers. I am not the best driver but been doing ok against newer buggies with my worlds re re :-) Thanks orangemazda had to be black with the graphite :-)
