Lol, true, but if you want to win a magazine shootout, you just need to buy more advertising than anyone else...

Advise to use it in the B4.2 as it can handle the speed and drive smoother then the rest ...

Dudes !!!


Almost every club night some K car driver makes me test drive their ride .

Hate disappointing them when I have tell them the Ae still drives better....

I tell them ...
Close ....
Its big improvement compared to the RB5 push machine...

If only you guys could get the RB6 to steer & hammer out the turn like a B4 ...


Then I yell who's next .....

My take:

Almost every time I race offroad, some A-car driver makes me test drive their ride.

I hate to deflate their egos when I tell them the RB6 still drives better....

I tell them ...Close, but no cigar! It's a big improvement compared to the B3 push machine...

If only you guys could get the B4 to steer, and smoothly transition out of the corner like the RB6...

I Then yell: "Stop listening to Wild Cherry, he has no idea and is wrong!.....

Its funny because I got an RB6 because I couldn't get enough steering out of my B4.1, drove a friends and it did everything my car didn't. A few months later, my AE sponsored friend has a lot of time into his B4, drove that, and IT does everything my car currently doesn't, lol. Guess I just need more fine tuning time, car is 95% where it needs to be, and doesn't slop out.

The way I see it the B4 was the better platform between the XXX and the RB5.
Both Losi,Kyosho and Durango moved on to new buggies capable of mid and rear motor,100% designed to run big bores,etc...and AE does a +8mm chassis,then big bores,then wheel hexes,then a incremental edition to gather all upgrades in a single package.No one asked for my opinion but I just see AE playing catch up.

Great point. Maybe the B4.3 will be a B4.2 with the Centro C4.1 conversion and esc platform tray.

reason I'm so hard core. Ae ?

Not just cuz the B4 is the refined racing machine setting the pace year after year.

Real reason is because of their team spirit & support.

Nobody has even come close though my many years of racing.

Ae has always been there for me with set up help to badly needed spare parts.
None of those compared to hearing my Ae team mates root & wanting me to win however..
Can't buy team spirit, you earn it .
