Just so I'm clear, You guys are grinding the new U brace flush and adding a .030 washer.
I know the orginal U brace from the original B4 was flush and then they added the extra height.
I haven't measured it but the raised section of the new U brace can't be much more than .030 high.

I tried this setup last night at the track and I think I like it. I tried the new C tower with a .030 shim under the inner ball stud for a pack and then tried it without the .030 shim. I found that without the shim under the ball stud, the car would tend to over rotate a little more. I was running on a track that is very, very smooth, and has pretty good grip.

Finally the outdoor season is upon us, here in the east. 
What tires and inserts should I have in my arsenal for 2wd Mod Buggy? I would like several options. Most of the tracks are medium bite clay with some dusting but one track has poor traction because it's loose dirt that dries out easily.

What about Proline Suburbs M3 compound? also, what inserts should I be using when using a soft compound?

In a 2wd buggy you'll want to run firm inserts with soft compounds. Pro-Line's countour foams work really well. Epic Bomb Ones also work well.

I would have to agree with mdowney that a suburb style tire will only work out door if it's a high bite hard pack clay, they just don't like a lot of dust. I like Hole shot 2.0's and other tires in that style on dry dusty tracks, every track is different but I leave the bar codes and suburbs for inside..
