Silt dirt with very little clay. Racing line is generally clean and usually a little damp. What should I try first?

Suggest using the graphite nose plate & ft arms , makes the car more consistent and easier to drive fast .

Most use graphite rear arms as well , but some also use plastic if more traction is desired...

It fits. Just short on the nose a touch. I got the AE 8mm chassis and am using my stock Proline Bulldog B4.1 body and can't even tell. No need to buy a 8mm specific body. Hell what is 8mm anyway...as far a body fitment.

Personal preference. Point is all stock B4.1 bodies can fit the 8mm+. No need to shell out more cash if you already have a body.

Is anybody using the rpm long shank rod ends? I have seen a car using both long and short rod ends, but i can't recall if it was longs-inner and shorts-outer or the opposite.

He asked if it fits... I posted the picture because he wasn't the only one who asked. ultimately run what you want, I don't care LOL

I could run Masami's body, it ain't helping me not suck.

There is one body that doesn't fit, the AE B4.1 body. Not the one you get in the FT kit, but the one you get with the RTR (you can also get it clear). That body doesn't fit at all.
