Just got mine and wow
 
So i got my car yesterday, the 23rd but i didnt have any batteries and i had to go to my "pre-birthday party" with my brother so this morning i stole batteries from all over the house and charged the sucka up. First impression, wow this thing is so quiet and fun. Also i like the detail of the bay (Integra type-R) i love it so much. Yummy :)

The Integra type-R is the best body shell in my opinion I have two, and my fave is the white Integra type-R, and the white alloys set it off well.......

yea, i would get more bodies but i cant find anywhere that sells just the body, so i might just need to start buying the chassi/body thing and purchasing some more freq thingys from my LHS

thanks homie, now i just need to figure out how to get the bodies off. After a whole day of racing i want to see the aftermath, and fix it with compressed air. oh and i was just wondering...i race mostly of very short carpet so i was wondering what spring set and tires do you guys think would be the best for racing on. I like to slide a little on the corners but not too much to be considered drifting. If you can answer that would be great :)

if you drive on carpet it rasie the suspension and keep the stock springs and get soft tires for the rear. itll fly on carpet when the suspension is lifted.... i have teh impreza body its awesome.to take teh body off just pull on the sides of it away from the chasis but not too hard.....have it up in the air when you do and let the chasis drop out from under it but let it drop on to a bed or pillow so itll be safe:D add a 4th battery and youll really love your car.....ive had mine a week and added the 4th battery the 3rd day and it really hauls a double-s

If you like to slide around a bit, then you should stick with the stock hard tires on carpet. If it is tight weave carpet, I would use soft springs, soft tires, and shimmed as low as you can with a small bit of suspension travel to spare. With the soft tires you won't be able to slide around though.

I have mine set up long travel rallye. I love it.
