The 0477 is made for the B4e with narrow side-guards, so it won't fit the B3.1e. If you are using the more current 4s LP style batteries, then I would suggest just using the nitro body for the B3.1 (#0393) and don't cut out the engine/fuel portion. That is what all the drivers were using prior to the new car.


Could you explain the mounting directions on the new Recon tire?
Click Here for a nice vid with some of the drivers regarding the Recon and direction.

the directional nature of how you orient it sounds like what we see with fuzzbites?

Are the smoothie 2 front 2wd tires wider than a normal 2wd tire? I know I saw something about one of the JC 2wd tires being wider but I can seem to find that info again.

Pretty much.

Yes, the Smoothie 2's are slightly wider than Ellipses and much wider than a Dirt Web.

I'd almost be curious how this pattern in a carpet / turf compound could work for 1/8 on those conditions :)

M17 case
 
Any idea if/when the m17 finish line case will be in stock?

Just came here to ask the same...they just released new bags for other transmitters but the M17 has been out of stock forever.

same question. They released new inserts but no stock of the m17’s?

Im currently racing on an outdoor covered low/med clay track. Silver ellipses are the ticket but since they're currenlty not available, would the aqua be a bit softer or provide more grip than Gold? Thx in advance.

Aqua is a long-wear compound for mid/high grip tracks with med/high temps, so I'm not sure that would be the next choice if silvers are the preferred compound. I would probably say a well sauced gold compound might be good? Try FDJ yellow or green sauce on golds in place of silvers.

Are there any australian stockists for the blue 13mm shock caps yet? Hanging out for them to complete my 2wd

how tall are the buggy drop-step tire pins in comparison to say a nessi or a lockness?

I don't know the actual specs, but my guess is roughly twice the size...

thanks, for more grip the proline pyramids offer more sidegrip on the turf we have here than the Nessi's or Sirens. I am curious if these could possibly offer that when the conditions warrant using the Pyramids.
