Matt I havent passed my b5 through a roar box, I am only going by what I remember from running tech at our regional race last year. Every b4.2 and c4.2 I ran through the box had plenty of room to spare on both sides. Maybe not 1/2" as that was a rough guess, but enough to where I don't see a degree of toe in, angling the tire enough to make it not pass through.
In regards to those discussing gearing with the Reedy 17.5 motors....I have always ran roughly 72/33-34 with timing around the 42° mark. I have messed around with the 69t spur and have never liked it as much as the 72t spur. It also depends on your driving style, my gearing might not work for you. My Reedy's have always come off the track in the 130° temp range.

I'll give you that. Every B4 i have seen had no issues with the box. The 22 series however was very close depending on which toe block you had and which hex you had. I agree, i dont think we will have any issues.

One of the videos made mention of the posability of a conversion from the b5m to b5r. Has anyone heard anything more concrete about it?
I really want to try a mm, but have yet to see a mm car (losi, schumacher, team c, kyosho) work on my track (low to medium traction indoor red clay, currently smooth, but not typically). I really don't want to get into a mm buggy with out an easy out if I can't get it to work.

I'd imagine a conversion comes quick.
RTR may only be rear motor, with mm conversion already available.
Recap: rm, mm, conv, rtr, ft(mm only)
Just my guess.

For low to barely med traction the rear motor will naturally be the best choice.
Fact...
mid motor guys are way kooler then the rear motor guys...LoL
