parts I'd like to see

Here's a list of aftermarket parts that I think should be made:

Long throw servo horn
adjustable motor mount to allow for more gear ratios
solid metal rear "axlebones"- they are half plastic!
a mini z style turbo add on, for more powerfull motors
High quality low resistance AA battery holders
Heat sinks for the batteries, like the mini z
carbon or titanium shaft kit- all 3 lengths
better ball bearings
camber changing upper arms
a kit to use the 4wd set up in the back

and that's not even geting into chassis parts.

This is thinking very big but i would like to see a drag strip and courses for the xmods. I mean we could all make a custom one but it everyone had sort of a regulation drag for these cars, then times would be able to be compared easier.

I would def like if diff cars came out......an evo, an sti, more new cars........a 67 impala, a stingray, more old cars.

Another thing is more body kits so everyones cars are different. I mean i know u can paint your cars but if it is the same style as even one persons car, it makes it less fun.

Also replacement parts.

lower a-arms. I can't think of a cooler way to get more suspension movement. Cut off the tabs on the chassis, and there you go.
That's how you would do the lift kit too. Longer a-arms and a simplified sliding shaft like on the 1/10 scale traxxas trucks.
Ball joints on the top and bottom.... Hmmm I need to start drawing something up.

yes i would buy like 2 more cars if there was a rally kit and the rally bodies. Since I'm a wrx owner i really want that body badly. A peugot 206 body would be very cool as well....hell any of the wrc car bodies would work except i'd be in debt from buying them all.
New mirrors as well, one is off and the other hangs by a molecule.

I would definitely buy any tinyrc parts you come up with as well as your chassis kit slugbugg

Best thing in my mind would be a chassis that is designed around keeping cruft out of the gears. i guess that means having enclosed front and rear boxes around the transfer gears. i understand that a tie rod won't be able to work enclosed, but at least the amount going in would be reduced greatly.

parts

How about a titainium or aluminum screw kit? I think there are like 5,000 screws on these things! I bet it it would drop a few grams off of the weight of the car. Just an idea..............

Top on my list would just be replacement chassis parts, like steering knuckes. I don't want to have to buy a whole new starter kit when one small part breaks.

sumkinda digital nitrous. like small batteries that are incased in a nos bottle with a braided wire to the motor for a realistic look and feel. maybe real anodiezed steel sway bars instead of ppl making them outa paper clips n stuff. o, and colored chasis kits, so u can get interior apperance. more body kits and more rims.
