Sounds good. http://www.gpmracing.com A suggestion. Check out http://www.pro-lineracing.com for a new Tmaxx Emaxx Hummer body if you like the Hummer http://www.rccaraction.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

You cant beat Powerline (my favorite), or GPM. Go to www.towerhobbies.com (http://www.towerhobbies.com) for the powerline stuff. They make everything in blue alum there.

id get the supermaxx suspension kit. its $325 and comes with bulk heads, 8 front and rear arms which are about an inch longer than any others i think, steering knuckles, shock towers, and plastic body post things. all machined polished 7075 aluminum. makes the t handle like a lamborghini. never flips. i plan on getting it myself when i can get $325. and it also comes with all mounting hardware u need. except for E-clip suspenion pins. and for those, id get soem from traxxas. i think they are the only ones who make them anyway.

i'd rather have a more custom look. i looked at the suspension stuff and i think i like the gpm and powerline stuff beter. For once i think i like blue better.

i was going to get powerline stuff but i heard gpm was more durable (and a litle more expensive). I know alot of people bent the powerline body mount sets. Who makes the most durable body posts and braces? I like the trinity ones except they say t-maxx on them.

is there a big diference in durability between the gpm regular shock tower, gpm light weight shock tower and powerline shock tower?

Any word on the rix gear chassis brace? that thing looks awsome!

also who makes 32 pitch pinion gears that will fit my motors? i know traxxas will be releasing a line of gears for the e-maxx but they won't be out for a while.

ya the supermaxx suspeion kit is great, i have yet to try it, but i hear great things about it.

you also might want to try out sticking a Super rooster and some 13 turn's in, you will still have good run time but you will FLY!!!

to save some wiegh, check our hardcore skids. they rock!

and batteries are very important, i know ballistic makes some great ones, and they are cheap too, great voltage and run time. and they have great customer service.

Super Rooster cant cold over 10 cells.
