Stick packs are nice when weight is needed in SC or T4 at my track, instead of shorty. But with saddle pack option on B5 makes it a twofer, just like C4.2 and better than B44. If SC and T5 follow with design than saddles will be option for weight. AE just taking sticks out of equation and making saddles the variable on model update. The SQ, just a option for hardcore set-ups tweakers or those who want ease of use instead of saddle wires.

RM late fed, MM Mid March, but knowing Tower, it'll be half a month always late.. hahahah, but if you pre-order now, you'll surely get the first batch when it becomes available.

Probably because not as many people desire or need a MM vehicle. It's funny though, more and more tracks are now trying to get the traction up as high as possible so people can and will run MM. MM seems to be the fashionable thing to do as of late, kinda doesn't make sense to me.

The Reedy SQ pack is not equivalent to a stick in any way. A saddle can fit a B4 lengthwise, the SQ not

I'm assuming this car will be pretty darn light especially running a shorty given the plastic chassis. Wondering if there are some spots they built into the design for weights or if we will be getting creative again.
