Thought maybe I should give this one it's own thread since I've started tweaking things.

First mod was adding wheel weights to the front end.

Next, moved the shocks to the innermost holes to give them a bit more angle and lower the chassis a bit.

Next up moved the esc/receiver from the rear to the front to bring a bit more weight forward. Tidied up the wires by zip tying them to the motor.

Next, was something I didn't really want to do, was to trim off the fender flares. Just don't like when the tires rub so they had to go.

Not sure what mods the future holds, but she's performing pretty well. I probably need to give her a lube job, since so many folks have reported her portals being bone dry.
