The E819RS takes the race-proven E819 and adds a list of new features designed to make it faster and more durable. Key updates include a new V3 rear shock tower allows racers to adjust the wing height and body mount height. Revised rear shock shafts and lower eyelets offer improved durability. A heavy duty aluminum center chassis brace is now included. Up front are new 17.5° caster blocks, now with larger M4 set screws for improved tightening and added durability. Also included are new steering blocks with 2° inclined kingpins that split the difference between the previous stock 0° blocks and the optional 4° blocks, along with new Delrin steering block spacers. A heavy-duty servo saver has been added, utilizing a stronger spring and matching upper adjustment cap. And, new screw-type shock pins feature standard & reverse threads, and are color coded for easy identification. The E819RS is now supplied with no body shell, reducing the price of the kit and giving racers the ability to choose their own body shell. All of the new parts are backwards compatible with the E819 and E817 V2 buggies, and the E819RS is compatible with most HB spare parts and option parts. The new E819RS follows the HB Racing concept... constant evolution to stay at the front of the pack.
