How Much Heavier is the Aluminum Front Shock Tower?

I don't see any point in the alloy, the graphite is lighter and looks better in my opinion. If the kit came out with the alloy shock tower, I bet that there would be alot going for the graphite shock tower, just because its an option part. Only option I have is the engine mount and I'll get the caster blocks when they come out and thats about it. I'd like to see plastic suspension holders with different set ups instead of buying the alloy suspension holders.

close your eyes and drive the thing. unbelievable!!! i dont care if it was made out of balsa wood and cardboard. price is a non issue. it turns ,its on rails and it has TRACTION . it has support from xray. gesh!!! :_)

its a winner. and the next model will be better. thats the name of the game.

I see the motor mount as the only necessary upgrade. The alloy hinge pin holders are convenient, but not necessary IMO.
