I realized I completely neglected to mention that this car came with most of the proper makings of a Team Losi Hydra-Drive (sans the HD itself) today I managed to pick one up for it.
Here’s what pieces are present as of now.

Who do you race for ?
Me……. I race for me.
That’s impossible, I was told you need a sponsor to race.

You won't use the round plastic spring cup to the left of the spring in your pic. You do need the smaller one (LOSA 3124) that goes on the end of the small spring (only use 1 of course) with the nut topping it off. Not sure if a plain washer would suffice since there is nothing to keep the spring centered otherwise.

Luckily a buddy of mine had some HD pieces I was able to get off of him.

10T silver fronts are pretty close, especially if you use the early spring cups and later style upper locators. That is what I used on my Graphite with 1.02 fronts.
Always looking for new and interesting ways to waste money.

Btw probably the only description I’ve ever seen of the springs short of medium and soft.
