Not to be a downer, but that was probably the original date. Referring to the post about the phone call to Associated and assuming that the person on the phone is actually in the know, then I would say if Team Associated doesn't know, then the your lhs doesn't know. I hope I'm wrong!

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.
Not sure what sort of track you are racing on, but I have put together a setup guide for the B5M on our typical tracks downunder which may be of interest to readers of this thread (see the pdf at the bottom of the link

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!

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.

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.
