    Friend joining the ERBE club

    So a friend of mine is going to be joining the ERBE club. His budget is $1500 and he wants his ERBE upgraded like mine. Here is what I am thinking:

    ERBE
    Futaba 3PM radio
    Tekno sway bars
    Traxxas Tubes pushrods & turnbuckles
    Rulux offsets with Badlands
    VDP kit
    Wheelie bar
    shock socks
    aluminum front body posts
    4 SPC 7.4v 5000mah batteries
    cheap charger (******* Accucel-6 is what I am thinking)

    Am I missing anything? Any better suggestions?

    I am excited to get someone else into the hobby and have another ERBE owner to bash with (currently all my RC buddies are Rustler VXL owners). I also want him to have the best experience possible.

    Thanks,

    Maybe i'm a retard or you caught me off guard. But, what in the world is a VDP kit it sounds like a disease.

    Also, depending on how much the shock socks are, Jato shock boots are a cheap way of keeping your shafts clean, I like them better than boots. Don't forget about extra axles...

    if your going to get the 7.4v spc, get the 8000. they are tight, but they do fit and than you got more amps and better run times too for not too much more.

    Dampening is making something damp (wet)...damping is slowing the action of a shock.
