I think you got the limited edition starter kit, you just supply the rest.

Thinking of switching to Associated. Is there that big of a difference between the B4 and the B4.1 to warrent spending the extra money instead of buying a used B4?

I must have gotten yours. did you get two bottles of threadlock?

Hey Boz,

YGPM mate.

I would be good with that if they advertised it on the box lol

Yes, well worth the extra. The B4.1 is a much more refined car than the B4. Factory Team version is that much better yet.

Track performance says differently . Same piece with a few upgrades !

I got all mine put together minus the shocks, will do that in the morning. I will say everything went together pretty smooth, only 2 things frustrated me; the long bolt that goes through the steering rack was cut too big and would not fit through any of the 4 bearings. Luckily, I had a spare steering rack in my spares box. The other thing is the 81t spur gear was warped quite badly, about a good quarter inch. Again, luckily I had another. Other than that, glad to see some beefier parts, and better fitting parts as well. Good job AE!

Will be racing it this weekend. I'll keep posted.

got everything built but the rr axles, the drive pins are bigger than the hole in the axle

I am planning on picking up a kit in the next day or so, but I am a little concerned with all the missing parts some users are having. This will be my first 1/10 elec and don't have any extra's laying around. Should I wait until AE sorts this out or is this a normal thing to deal with.

AE is usually pretty good with replacing missing parts if you don't mind waiting a few days for shipping. It's really hit or miss, 5 years from now you could buy a kit and have missing parts. I will say, personally, with all the extra tuning pieces they give, I would gladly wait the couple days! Lol. They pretty much give you everything except anti roll bars and inline axels!

Yeah, I wouldn't worry too much about that. Its a great kit, the parts quality is awesome and its tried and true design.

I just finished building mine and there wasn't a single piece missing. SWEET.

Did u have any slop in the topshaft?

No slop, trans went together with no issues.
