For more stability you want the link shorter, keep in mind your shock spring piston oil setup needs to be in the ball park based on track conditions. Inside hole on the camber link(shock tower) try the inside hole on the hub with the 3 hole insert. Tires 85 to 90% of battle.

Thanks i will keep this in mind, However, my plastic rear hub has 2 holes only....i picked he one that is closest to the inside tho

You can buy those inserts, i rarely used the two hole majority was the 3hole insert until i bought hubs

I don't want to use pucks because, well I really don't have a good reason, lol. I keep searching for a rationalization but I just want to win without them so other racers will not think they are a prerequisite to have a fast car.

The pucks system remove 4 grams per bone and 16 gram on outdrives for total of 24 grams. This in using Exotek spur and eliminator make for a killer drivetrain

The cut gears are also worth it as well ...imo

Does require different setup than stock bones. Car will rotate harder on power

What racing wing do you guys prefer in regards to bang for the buck? ive heard a few guys at my track recommend the serpent buggy wing.

The ProLine Trifecta is pretty durable. However I like the design of the Upgrade RC Vortex wing.

Honestly, the stock wing is the best. It's strong, great down force and inexpensive.

Thanks for your replies Even though I'd like to hear different. On thought I had:
The B5R has more weight on the rear axle (RA), the B5M FL should have nearly the same (or most likely) a little more weight. So the added weight would be partially at the RA. So if a (just a example) B5R weighs 1500 and the B5M FL 1650 it could be possible that both share (nearly) the same load on the rear axle. So the difference would be the longer distance between the wheels (dont know the english term) and that most of the mass (motor) is nearer to the center of rotation (which I think is good).

Are my thoughts wrong? What do I miss (as you can see I am looking for reasons that are pro B5M )

And ragarding the track: It's my first year there and I cant tell if the track is most likely to be that dry (like dusty dry) ore more likely wet sticky clay.

The stock wing never lasts very long for me. The sides of the wing seem to break the most easily. The Proline Trifecta wing lasts a long time though. What I started doing was use the Proline wing most of the time and use the stock wing only for racing (due to slight weight savings).

The kit wing is awesome, if your somewhat wealthy then i like the jconcepts precut

I've been using my stock wing since I built the car and it is hanging in there. I spend a lot of time on my lid too. My finnisher body came with a 2 pack of wings so I think I am good for a little while.
