I recently got back into the hobby and I always wanted an RC10 since I was 12. Well now I have one and it needs to beat the new skool cars.

Here is what I have:
Klein arms front and rear
RC10t rear hub carriers
Extended spindle shaft (front)
B4 CVA's
RC10T rear shock tower
12mm hex deep dish wheels brought equal track width with the front

Front end:
I used the stock RC10 front arm mounts and I had to use spacers due to the wider arm width.

I went with an extra long shock for the mono setup. I fabbed the arm mounts out of carbon fiber. I went with the long shock to ensure that I always had shock tension on the arm at all times in order to avoid teeter tottering effect leading to body roll. I will try this at the track as is. Do you guys think I will need to add a sway bar?

Steering:
I went with the TLR Losi 22 steering rack (Nice rack; I like it!)
This allowed me to cram more hardware forward to help out the light front end.

Also added titanium struts and a B4 wing mount.
Castle 4 pole 4600kv
LIPO 2s
Hobbywing programmable ESC (i really like it especially for the price!)

Car's total weight is 3.49lbs.

How much does yours weigh and does it matter?
