ThunderbirdJunkie's bearings press firmly into the wheel on PL Velocities, never had one fall out.The Traxxas spring cups are taller and push the bottom of the spring up in relation to the arm/rod end.

Well the new worlds car is out and ot has all of the stuff we have been running since its been aval. and the kyosho car has been playing with the long chassis just as long and still cant get one out yet or even put in the worlds car ,this tells who is on top of what people want in a kit that says WORLDS car ,minus the k car springs . This is not to put kyosho down just making an observation .

I made an aluminum front hinge brace and bought the STRC bulkhead. The Associated one is ridiculously expensive.

You have no mention of the number of inner ball stud washers front and rear. I would make sure that you at least either have one or no ball stud washers in the rear and on or two in the front. If you want the car to turn in more and rotate go with fewer washers in the rear. If you want the feeling of more traction at the expense of mid-exit steering ad a washer in the rear. In the front if you want more initial turn in go with fewer washers, but for more exit steering add one. Typically adjusting the rear washer height is a little more sensitive of an adjustment than the the front.
Also I would bet that you car feels so twitchy because your springs are too stiff front and rear. Try at least going to one stage softer with 30wt fr and 27wt rear with #2 pistons in front and #3 piston in the rear with standard limiters. You shouldn't have any chassis slap unless you are either flat landing, or unevenly landing on the downside.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but i thought if you lower your roll center(adding washers) you will rotate/slide easier. (i am talking about the rear). The reason I say this is when the 3-4page debate about roll center a few weeks back on here was being talked about. I was having a traction roll issue with one washer in the rear, when I went to 2 washers I was no longer traction rolling and the car could be thrown into corners easier. Talking to locals at the track some said they are running 3-4 washers allowing more rotation. Unless i'm not understanding the meaning of rotation?

We have a few with the BB K-springs and they have been using for a few days now , soon I can tell you if they are really worth the extra $ and effort to find .
The team also use Ae springs at Worlds so you know , so the new B4.1 Worlds does represents what the team used ...

Yes, all are using Gold Bar Code.
Many are also using they softer JConcept insert & are using 4 or 5 wraps of duct tape on the center of rim to help remove air space between the insert.
yes , 0 degree rear hub , blue or plastic B44 all good .

Tape on the rim! You guys have way to much time to play with rc, I'm jealous.
