I have the weight of the 39T ball diff... I would think the Gear diff will only be +~- a few grams.. so thats fine...
and the Chassis has all of those nice cut outs in it.. And for the Shocks the Big bores 20grams more so you nailed that

I'm sure we might see an option for a Carbon chassis here after the TRF503 has been out for a while....
... When has Tamiya ever left one of the TRF Buggies alone LoL...
501x to 501x worlds kit
502x to 502x upgraded parts
511 to 511 gear diffs to 511 upgraded chassis kit
503 to...???
We all know it will happen
