TLR 22 5.0
#1576

The other reason I bought the D418 was it was cheap and different. The Schumacher is very different. The Xray and Yokomo are probably the most similar to existing platforms.

Ok so I'm looking for advice on what one to get the SR OR AC. At my local club we run a carpet gym in the winter with our offroad cars. All flat and quite small, so to slow down the cars to avoid breaking the cars we are going to a spec 25.5. So I'm going to keep my 22 4.0 for outside only and get one for inside only but don't know if the SR will be what I need or if it is better to go with the AC since it is for built for just that type of racing.

either will do fine honestly BUT the AC comes with the sway bars and gear diff that you would want for carpet, so I’d say the AC is your better pick for an indoor carpet car. The only difference is the SR doesn’t have sway bars, and doesn’t have the gear diff but does have the eliminator. The Sr also comes with the lightweight composite drivetrain and ball diff which would be toast on carpet real quick.
One other questions, with no gear cover how do you keep out the rocks?

setup station in off road... don't know about you ...but if you are amazing in gluing tires and it's glued straight and true around AND your buggy doesn't have any slop whatsever( which is impossible in off road) Your accurate measurement would work. ON ROAD yes... setup station is a must.... OFF ROAD? not really. Just get yourself a cheap RPM gauge and a ride height gauge.... just saying.

I know this is the tlr thread, but can anyone give me an honest opinion how the elite compares to the b6.1/6.2? My son drives a b6.1 factory light. I’ve driven it and it’s good. But the losi seems like a better deal. And I’ve always preferred tlr to ae. We run on pretty high bite clay (slicks) so my concern is does the car work well on high bite? Most of the fast locals run ae, so that would be an easy choice for setup help. But I really like the design of the 5.0 minus not having a quick access diff.
