Oh and was going to ask. Since I'm pretty sure I'm going to get a FL. Are there any recommendations or "Must Haves"?
Thanks

There might be some nice things to have but nothing necessary. Like ceramic bearings, cut gears, etc...

OK I might be wrong but here is my thought. I tried something at my local track. It was a new layout and buggy was just a little rear end happy in the corners. Now I know many will say, " track hasn't come in yet". But I know other cars were not doing the same as mine so tried a change. Instead of running my camber links on the rear ( in on rear tower and middle on hub) I went to (in on rear tower and in on rear hubs. I was hoping for a little more camber gain in the corners.

Aluminum rear hubs
What is the increase in weight for the aluminum rear hubs? Do they impact handling much and is it worth getting schelle? Thx

Shorter wheel base is more stable. Hence why people were putting rear motor rear arms on the mid motor car, to shorten the wheel base and make the car more stable.

They do add weight on the rear end. Not sure on the specific amount. They also change the flex on the rear suspension as well. They're certainly more rigid.

A used B5M FL just appeared! 
Could get it for 170$ (5races, just minor scratches to the bottom).
Would you think for this track a B5m would be good/better than my B5? The track can be dusty as shown or whenever it rains, it gets super sticky kind of clay.
Dont know what to do

Does anyone have pics of a b5m, normal transmission, with a fan and using the jcon S2 body. Trying to find a clean place to add a fan and there isn't much space to work with.

That was fast. I should have searched but thanks for the quick reply. He and I are having virtually the same thought process. Except he figured out the answer.

With it that dry a B5 would do better .

That's me. I run the S2 body and have no issues with clearance. I tape the pack in and have zero issues. This is probably version 3 or 4 that I'm on.
