if you're gonna run the Spektrum, and use a temp gage and speed meter, you might wanna look into the spektrum telemetry kit...you can monitor all that stuff while running, instead of after the fact, when you pit...

i'll look into that. My spektrum is the new DX3 only released over here, does the kit reprogram the transmitter or something as it doesn't mension additional sencors or meter's in the menu or manual (not that i remember)

There duel rate springs, same idea. There not the prettest looking things but they make a hell of a differance to her. Plus its not got shock socks so you can't see them.

it's a seperate unit actually that works alongside your transmitter...has a seperate LCD screen for the additional info it relays to you...has sensors and stuff that mounts on the truck...

oh right, sounds like a good job, must check that out, i'v allready came to the concludion that the VSm is useless/pointless so its gone, te temp monitior is handy but having live data would be alot better for tuning etc.
