Hi!
All new to this car. Have not received it yet. Got it in a trade for my B5m. Will need a new body. What options do I have? Proline Type-r and stock body. Anything else that fits?

This thread probably holds an answer to this but I haven't got the patients.

Use the type R. The other one is hard to get a nice paintjob on because of the 3 piece design and nobody wants to do it.

QUOTE=trick25;13546378]for those are are replacing the front hinge pin with shock shaft. which ones are you using? is is there a better option than stock. better material or at least no little neck to break on the threads.

just broke my kit on maden voyage after a couple packs when i tangled with a 1/8 scale. not blaming the car. just curious if there is a better option.[/QUOTE]


I'm using the associated gold shock shaft it's a bit longer and all u need is a C clip and washer with a locking but works great

Has anyone ran back to back tests with esc behind and in front of motor? I can't decide which way to mount mine.

Mine actually broke right away after one pack. No big wrecks or anything like, it just snapped right at the tread part. I don't know the part number for the shock shaft I used I just compared it at the hobby shop.

Hey Nick, I have 2 buggies, 1 setup with the esc up front and one setup in the back and both have the same setup. It's a cleaner setup with it up front but the handling characteristics are almost identical.

another fantastic night with this car. I really want to hate this car because of it poor quality, but even clapped out and with Rubbermaid twisty arms, it drives like a beast. I aired it out over the triple and ended up bouncing the car for 20 feet. Hell it was even bouncing up hill. Nothing broke. I didnt have the shock caps pop off in practice and once at the end of the race. I landed the triple and it just popped off. Mainly having issues with the rear. This car carries so much corner speed. I am loving the 3 diffs in this car. It just hugs the pipe and rips out of the corners. We are running high bite with clay slicks.

I am running evo fronts. 12mm hex version. I really like the evo wheels for higher bite tracks. Less sidewall folding.
