I have started running O'donnell shocks now, can't beat the price. http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXWDS7&P=7 I may need to run the buggy springs on the front though, the truggy ones seem a bit too long.

I know what you mean about the the shocks and sicking with what you like I love my jammin shocks and dont think I will ever switch.

I am getting that new truggy but to I was thinking of going with the D8T but I will be keeping my ST because I love it some much and I would like to keep do more things to it. I would love to make my own chassis and make it alittle longer and do some other thinks.

My main problem with having the Ofna is parts. Where I race, my son and I are the only ones with them (which I like), but they don't carry many of the ST parts. They do have some of the buggy parts which helps and I have a ton myself, but when I break that one parts that I don't have I am screwed. Where with a Losi or AE, I can pretty much guarantee that the hobby shop or another racer will have the parts. Don't you think my truck would be good for $100 or so. I would like to get more, but I don't think I could (roller).
