K3 want to upgrade some parts?

[1meathead]

Ok I know fioroni makes sweet parts but I want to do something different. What do you all think of the Racers Edge pro parts? I like the look and the seem strong. Let me know what you guys think.

The Racer's Edge parts are nice. I had them on my X5 and really liked them. Never had a problem with them either.

i got the full racers edge kit for my kyosho.. steering knukles and everything.. cuz they match the chassis.. that gold color is sweet.. and they are tough.. never bent or broke anything on them.. alot of people like the blue of fironi.. but I'm more partial to the gold andized color..

also.. Ratzas makes some sweet parts.. and insted of blue or gold.. they are black.. which is pretty trick..

here is a little closer.

Ratzas would be sweet but they only have a few parts. I like the gold look also.

Not to piss on your dream here but personally I've found upgrading to be a matter of breakage only. If something breaks that's a great time to upgrade, not just for the sake of upgrading.

Sorry, you asked for opinions and I gave you mine.

Unless it's broken, or severely hindering performance, I'm behind the :arrr: 100%. If you have al oose front end, by all means get it upgraded, but if it's just for the sake of upgrading you might want to wait. Enough patience, and it will break lol. You'll get to upgrade it sooner or later.

Too Many times I have upgraded parts at the begining of the month only to break what's next down the line. The problem is it's usualy after I spent the majority of my R/C budget on upgrades.

ditto with lykan and pirate.. i usually dont upgrade until i got all the bugs worked out on the car.. got my spare parts. like arms..and gears and stuff.. or when i get my bonus check stuff like that.. then i will upgrade..

No that's cool I didn't want you to take wrong! But I did ask what people thought of racers edge. I know it's smart to hold off till things brake but I want to start with the shock towers and then work from that. As for stock parts I have 2 sets of most things that brake on the way ie. arms,wing mounts,diff gears.

Yeah, and if somthing breaks then you finish last. Better to be safe than sorry IMO.
