Was it on facebook? I started a small list already. So if anyone out there has a chance, please weigh your motor plates (in grams) and either post it here or PM me. Thanks.

Our tracks generally arent super high grip but we have got the B5M working better than the rear motor in pretty much every condition including very low traction. Its an amazingly versatile car!

awesome thanks. i loved running your b4.2 setup

Tower changed their stock status to "early April" now. This sucks for people with patience issues.

Glad you like the sheet! Unfortunately we dont have many indoor clay tracks in Australia so its hard to create something accurate for you. Hopefully the info on the sheet is enough to get you started though in terms of what change affects the car.

One of the things I havent tested enough yet are the 3hx1.4 pistons. From my calcs, they should have similar pack to 2hx1.7mm pistons but may be less temperature sensitive. Generally I find I use the same oil as a 2hx1.6 with the 3hx1.4. Ill be testing them a bit more soon. Personally I prefer the feel of the 1.7s to the 1.6s unless the track is super smooth and has aggressive grip. Especially for the guys running lightweight stock setups Id recommend taking pack out.

Was wondering why you run 1mm washers on the steering rack. I know on the b4 and b5m most setups never changed that
