The LD3 isn't just a ready-to-run anymore. The new "Pro" model is a kit car, and has as the name implies, it's got upgraded specs compared to the RTR models. Like what, you ask? Try these on for size:
> Front one-way
> Aluminum threaded shocks
.> Front an rear CVA axles
> Dual-chamber 180 degree pipe
> Blade-style front and rear swaybars
> 7075 aluminum chassis
> 6-gear differentials
> Partially-finished body; flames are factory, the rest of the body is clear.

They do that so you can choose what color you want for the rest of the car.

I wish they'd include a ROAR legal body.

Nice setup...Body is a cool idea, better than a fully painted body. At least you get to add some of your own touches.

99% nope... This is pro-version of LD3. Pro kit car usually doesn't include engine.. except for few cars like mugen.. mtx....

Cool. Does the .12 on the RTR have a slide carb or does it still have the rotary?

It has a slide carb and carb works as good as rotary one. I couldn't notice much diff between rotary and slide on Force12 though.

True. I bet if you use a better carb, like an OS, or Novarossi as well as change the crank, you'll notice something. BTW I got a Sport NT RTR now to play with. :D
