Nice Carisma collection! I also got the green buggy kit and I have no problems with the slipper like you mentioned in your other video. The bumpers are a really smart idea. I would say that's the number one mod to make for this car as you know it's damn fast! Otherwise, you have to keep buying extra a-arms cause they are the first to break in a crash. I just took a plastic lid off a container and used that as a bumper. The oil shocks are really good and improve corning so much. I see that you got the rally tires on all your cars instead of the rubbish buggy tires. While the rally tires are really grippy and offer suspension on rough surfaces, if you want high grip asphalt action, you gotta try these tires. www.tamiya.com/english/products/15378/index.htm The offset acts as negative camber and they provide astounding grip while cornering. Get two sets so you can put the rear tires on the front as well. You have to stretch them a bit to make them fit but that's a good thing because they might fly off under high speed. Another advantage is their diameter is smaller, lowering the CG of your car. And they are dirt cheap. I soften them a bit with tire traction compound. But don't go overboard or they become too soft and start flying off the rims.
The chassis is identical, what is different are the upper and lower A-arms and dog-bone driveshafts which are all shorter which creates the more narrow width.
@@JumpmanJRH just ordered. Put more content of these things up! Love to see races. Getting another as well and which one would you think has the best turning radius?

Love it! Got to get one. Thanks for the video.
Does anyone know the dimensions of the differential?
Do you know if the really chassis is smaller than the buggy
