Looking to use the slipper eliminator on the B5M 17.5 stock blinky racing. Any pros and cons? How does it wear on the diff having no slipper. Thanks for any info.

Should be an interesting 2016 battle with the new car. I like the wing being forward and not so far back, looks like a nice idea. Don't know how well a rear tower will hold up being curved but time will tell. Don't know about the rear ball stud deal. Ballstuds look old compared to B5 platform . The battery compartment looks cool and AE could be there with a few minor tweaks if they wanted too. AE can now look at that car and make some changes if they look to be good changes. Nice to see updates, it pushes all manufacturers which gives us all great products. It was interesting to hear Frank Root talk about the benefit they saw from the 3 gear to 4 gear.
New B5MFL comes with all sorts of goodies. One upgrade that would be nice and worth an extra 10 bucks in the kit are the x rings and machined pistons that would make them top notch nothing better shock package from the box. Kashima and V2's not really needed but would take it over the top but cost prohibitive for sure.

I did find out today 22/78 yields a fdr of 9.22 which will pop coming out of turn two

The 22 3.0 is scary similar to the b5m. Like, a copycat you could almost call it.

I went all tlr cars recently because the latest gen of AE cars werent working out for me...
Maybe when they include the nice kashima shocks new springs, xrings, and less plastic ill reconsider. No matter what i do with it it just doesnt fit my driving style...

Ask and you shall almost receive. Uses the heavy chassis and still no lcg tranny. Supposed price point of $325

lol, I said the next car would probably have the updated shocks....and it does. Otherwise, pretty boring
lol, both flat and gulwing arms? both 2 pad and 3 pad slippers? And the coolaid front wing? Updated shock bodies, but crappy eclip shafts and pistons, meh. And a price tag of 325....so ae included more stuff and charged you for it all.....not hating, I think they could have done better on the shocks. ditch all the extra tuning parts and include the machined pistons and v2 shafts.

Yeah i know. I think new owners would rather have machined pistons, v2 shafts and xrings over both gear boxes, slippers and front arms.

Hmmm i got torched a couple weeks ago about a new B5 and today a new B5 is announced!
