Default practice today

made some changes and my B5 was faster then the 4wd wheelers on the local track . the main factor was the shocks and rear camber length placement . car is wicked fast . i can drive it hard in the corner and out . i was thinking about buying the B5M but i think i will hold off i really can't see it being much if any faster then the B5 . we have a race tomorrow i will get some video of the mains and post up . i also don't use any weight up front i found the steering without the band aid

nose high and power push, slipper too tight is what always causes that combo of issues for me.

What is your wing angle set at. What line did you cut the wing to. The wing will have a direct impact on how it jumps

MID motor domination Ae style baby !

Apologies for the fan boy in me...
Don't be surprised if you don't get all you asked for, apparently AE only got around 1/3 of the kits they expected.

But not to fear I got mine!

They didn't call like they did on the B5 You need to check your back order list Mine will be here on Tuesday. One thing that I did find if you want to try and use a low profile sego like I was going to use it was a savor 1251 LP you can't use it because of where the servo wires come out from too close to the blue alum. servo mounts.. Yes I have one built already just waiting on my stock B5M to show up..

Got my tracking info from Tower. Kit will be here Thursday. Now the big question is, do I take off work Friday so I can stay up Thursday night building then go to the track Friday afternoon for testing. Hmm... I do have 5 weeks vacation to blow this year, so why not.
