Jumps and lands better as well.

Everywhere else on the track they are equal.
I am amazed that you can so definitively and concretely answer questions such as this.

eBay, I just spent $38 for a rear tower and ball stud mount. At least I got a few extra parts tough way to learn not to act stupid with my b5m!

lots of people itching to get that mid motor that are on high grip, that may have had the RM is my guess.

Default B5

Its performing.......but just don't break anything. I have been trying to get parts for 4 weeks now!!!! Impossible unless you want to pay triple from people that have them and jack the prices up. Getting frustrated that no parts are available!!!

First race and 6th pack overall on car made the a-main at OCRC qualified 7th great horrible start(some crashed in front of me and stopped me from moving up, then went a couple laps and gained a couple spots same thing happened again this time putting me in last. worked back up to 5th but just ran bad to many mistakes trying to catch up and ended up 8th. Car worked great will hopefully do much better next time out. It does feel good as there were enough cars for a d-main event in stock buggy..so my times aren't to far off just need to keep her on the wheels

Default added weight in front?

what about adding weight to the front of the buggy?
did the drivers at the cc add some additional weight to their cars? I.e. Centro sell bulkheads made from brass and/or aluminum. I'm currently running a DEX210 in 4MM configuration (B5M ordered) with an RDRP brass bulkhead.
I couldn't see any added weight in the cars on the pics from the ae team drivers at cc...

Nothing I haven't even had a chance to set it on track with work, just trying to find some parts for "in case" and maybe get the straight arm setup to try with the gull wing setup to see what I prefer

I like that the car does not require tons of brass to work. I think that is more an issue with some of the convertible cars.

I think people are selling the rear motors are the mid motors are about out and the rear motor has a terrible on power push and off power push .the only way I could get it to work is to run really bald rear tires . The front to rear weight distribution is what off it seems this is my .02 worth
