The total roll stiffness is: springs + dampers + sway bar. Your rear roll rate may have been too high compared to the front. That's the beauty of adding a sway bar. Can lower the shock sping rate, but at the expense of wheel independence. Or, in different terms, you can put enough roll rate stiffness (with the sway bar) without using shock springs that make the car bounce down the straight.
All of these things have affect on the how much, how quickly, and when the car will roll in a corner.

New RC10b5m build (electronics questions)
I recently purchased a Team Associated SC10 RTR truck and have been racing it the past couple weeks at our local indoor clay track. Awesome fun!! and I have been learning a lot. Now I realized that I need a buggy!!! I purchased the RC10b5m kit (should be here Monday) and I need help picking out servo, ESC, and other electronics for it. Keep in mind I don't want to break the bank on my first build, however, I do want to race it. Any feedback and help, or opinions would be greatly appreciated.
Also, can I bind my current radio and just purchase another transmitter for my rc10 or should I get a different radio now?

[/QUOTE]Edit: Just for the heck of it I'll pull a battery out of a B5M (notice the plugging of the B5M thread!) and I'll charge it and temp it before and after.....then I'll discharge it and do it again just for the fun of it.[/QUOTE]
Its pretty cold here. I cycled a 4250 100c Protek battery a few times and the battery went from a low of 60 to a high of 72. I have pics but its pretty unexciting. I set the charger to 30A but it never went to 30 and moved down to 20 so quick I missed it with the camera. It took almost 9 minutes to charge the first time which is a lot.

Is there a lay down tranny made by Team Associated for the B5M (CE). The 'real' champions edition had one, so ...it would be nice to support the carpet, astroturf drivers. more weight in front of car is needed on that type of surface.

Nothing made by AE, and from what I've heard from an AE engineer it's "not gonna happen". There are options out there if you really want one though.

Just got back from my first indoor carpet session with my B5. Broke the damn chassis. Thats why I am thinking of getting the B5 to B5m Conversion Kit.
I mostly run on a local clay track. I can't tell if the grip is medium / low / high, due to it's completely dependend to the weather.
We had 4 weeks sunshine, the clay dusty like hell. Then it rains every vew days and the clay stays wet constantly, you have super nice grip.
So I dont know If the upgrade to the B5m would be a good idea (I would repair my chassis of the B5 with the B5m to B5 kit, because it costs just 10€ more, but has damn lot more parts included).
Any suggestions?

So your suggesting buying a hole new kit?
I "was" aiming at the upcoming 4wd AE Car...because I don't want to buy a B5M FL and hear about a B5.1 (or whatever) in the next few months.
(And mainly, because I am far away of needing 2 2wd buggies for one track)
