Very nice looking cars. How much extra length do the SC10 blocks add to the front?

Very interesting. Is that measurement to the tips of the front axles or to the outside of the spindle blocks? I figured the B4/SC10 parts would push the front out some because of the wheel offset the buggies have....maybe the hexes make up the offset.

I appreciate you taking the time to get the measurements. Thanks.

Nice, I have seen rccarbonworks stuff on ebay a bit. I had no idea they had their own site. Looks good.

That really sets it off, with paint it will be really nice. It is one of my favorite bodies. Looks good!

Johnny, are the offsets on the VTA wheels too much? Perhaps 0mm offset would work better all the way around? Perhaps 31mm is too wide in the rear as well? I was thinking about just getting 26mm wheels all the way around with 0 offset.


Also, does anyone know if tc3 cvd bones will work if I use B3 or B4 axels on a DS?
