Aftermarket Slayer arms?

I checked RPM's site and don't see any. Seems a bit of a shame that you ahve to run stock.

I just picked up a roller and upon inspection, both front lower arms are cracked. I would proffer replacing them with something better than stock if possible.

I actually met the owner of RPM a couple of years ago at RCX '08.

He said he had 2 criteria for them making parts for an RC.

1. Can he improve on the stock part.
2. Is the RC in question popular enough to warrant the expense of tooling and production.

I'm guessing with the Slayer #2 is the issue since RPM arms are a vast improvement over stock Traxxas.

My email response from RPM.

Unfortunately, there aren't any plans for Slayer parts from RPM at the moment but that can change at any time. Please continue to be patient with us and with a little luck, hopefully we'll get a chance to build something for you in the not too distant future.
Take care and thank you for your interest and support of RPM products. If you have any other questions or comments, please feel free to send us another e-mail.

Too bad... would have liked to get them if they existed.

Although, I may just convert it to a revo down the line... but after getting it together a bit, I really dig how it looks with the shorter arms and smaller wheels.
