The chassis is made by racers edge, It is titanium coated,all wc suspension and look closely at the shocktowers you'll notice they are both the same height

Raf - I would suggest a 2000-2500 mAh 5-cell AA pack in a 3-2 or 2-2-1 configuration.

I have ordered a complete KO setup. I could be wrong about them, but generally I don't have faith in the RTR servos for racing.

Futaba 2PK or 3PM are excellent for the money

I dont think so the str is based on the 777 but i think the st us is the same maybe
what i do know is that the sideguards from the gt dont fit on the st us,

the mp 7.5's diff cases are compatible with the mp 777 but the 2 speed is not,then again i dont have a wc chassis on my car,but a chassis thats slightly stiffer than the wc's chassis.I can see where you might have thought that i said i have a wc chassis on my car.

the str chassis will also hold mp777 diff cases and center diff mount but the cut out from the center gear would have to be widened on a mp 7.5 chassis because the center diff gear is bigger in diameter.

I'm running a ST chassis on my GT for the added wheelbase. Only needed to move the aft driveshaft to the front and replace the rear shaft. The ST chassis has just as much flex as the GT one though
