RC10B4.1 FT/WC
I'm thinking about getting a b4.1 worlds car. I've never owned a 2wd so I have nothing to compare it to. I'm looking for some honest, unbiased opinions on this truck. How do you guys like yours?

Well, if you want a truck, then you need to buy something besides a B4.1 Worlds.
However, if you want the best buggy on the planet, go for it! No questions, no doubts, no hesitation. Buy it, build it, and smoke the competition.

What electronics are people running? Whats a good 10.5 motor, esc and servo for this buggy? I have some nanotech 6.6 batteries I'd like to be able to use if possible rather than have to get new ones.

That question is best answered at your local track/ hobbyshop. There's a million answers, so go see in person what you like. Also if you have quesitons or need help its good to have similar equipment to your fellow racers.
LRP's Spheres have a great feel, great price, and great reliability.
I'm VERY impressed with LRPs X20 motors currently. Right now I'm running Tekin in everything, and Orion motors. The Tekins are great, but the motors feel kind of gutless (8.5 2WD / 7.5 4WD buggy).
You're batteries are fine, but most of the local tracks have motor limits on stock buggy (my recommendation if you're new to 2WD buggy). RCHR runs a 17.5 stock class (I believe Wolcott hobbies does too), Island Raceway and Hobbies runs 13.5. For the time being, these are the biggest buggy classes at all of the tracks that I've been to.

I tried my battery that far back but was getting a pendulum affect. The rear would keep trying to come around. Now I have 1 big block in front and 1 big and 1 small behind. That makes it feel much better.

upgrades are the aluminum steering racks, hexes, big boar springs or big boars, vts slipper.
With the lighter battery it turns better and so I prefer to run it slightly back to help maintain traction in mod. For stock, I have no idea
