Ok. Build is going pretty good. Did your bodies come with window masks or did you have to make them yourselves?

Kellen and I are hitting up LRH tomorrow (Tuesday) for all all nighter. Come meet up!
Neither the serpent nor xb4 will be ready for shakedown runs until at least Wednesday. I would so be there though if I could.

Sounds like we have a few xb4 at LRH. Please share set up once you guys are dialed. I know Kellen shared some a few posts back. But would like to hear more details if possible. Thanks.

I moved the rear hubs forward and it was better. I think the car would be dialed with a ball diff in the rear.

Can someone give me the part number for the plastic hexes made by traxxas that fits the xb4?

I kind of felt that way last night while I was building it. Now focusing on the Serpent. Would like to try and get some shakedown runs in today at LRH with it.

I did the same thing, I run on an indoor hard packed dirt track with medium traction. Moving them forward seemed to settle the rear end down coming out of corners.

Nice! Cya there. I should be there before 4pm. I like the pit table furthest inside with the bright lights. Has space for 4 peeps.
