Sounds like you could be using better tires. I'd try that first. Maybe you could borrow tires from someone for a lap or two to test if you don't have what the "fast guys" are using.

A lot of theory craft.

Mine is on it's way, as well as the ceramic bearings and cut gears.

Try some hole shot tires I'm a firm believer in them

The shocks mount the same, the rear look the same but it moves the hubs foward 2mm I think

I need some help on building the shocks on the B5M. The manual says to use a 5mm shock cup but I only see shock cups marked 1,2,3&4. I cant figure out what shock cups I should be using in the front and rear for a track such as OCRC in HB. Any help would be great.

My thoughts exactly... Make sure you have the correct tires and make sure your braking endpoint is set right... Touchy brakes can throw off your throttle if you are on and off both all the time... Mm is alot different then rm... For me i had to adjust to being alot more smoother at first... Really i dont even use the brakes except when jumping... You always have to be on slight throttle through the turns cause if you let off suddenly sometimes mm buggies will react violently... its all about how smooth you are with the throttle IMO... Box setup should run fairly fine with the correct tires!!
