I run on high bite indoor and med to high bit outdoor clay. I LOVE Losi Orange fronts and Yellow rears with Ghea #2's and 30/27.5 AE fluids. Those springs were the closest in rate to the Green/Brown stock springs that made the car always feel balanced. The Losi springs and shock cups, ghea collars and pistons were the best money I ever spent on an upgrade for the B4 platform. It's crazy plush on a 12 second indoor bullring and also on a BIG outdoor nitro track. I run a full size LiPo as well.

hey guys what losi big bore springs are you running on your b4.1 for an indoor clay track? like what would work best for an indoor clay medium grip track? and also while i was looking at my shocks on the back i notice that the turnbuckles on the back are already pretty close to the shocks with the regular springs, do the turnbuckles rub on the big bore springs? is there a way to fix this if they do rub?
I run standard length lipo and use Red/White at one track. Has plenty of steering
at another track Orange/White

My basic setups (*this is my current race setup):
*B4 buggy with standard size Reedy wolfpack- Red 3.4 lb front, Red 2.15 lb rear
B4 buggy with shorty Reedy- Yellow 3.0 lb front, Yellow 2.0 lb rear
B44 buggy with large ballast weight- Purple 3.6 lb front, Yellow 2.0 lb rear
*B44 buggy with 1/2 oz- Purple 3.6 lb front, White 1.9 lb rear
I had all of my stuff stolen in Feb, so I haven't run the production AVID springs with the shorty pack.

Will the production version have a color marked on the spring or still come with the shrink wrap?

You should see a press release for the AVID Precision Springs soon, and we plan to go live on the site within 7-10 days! Sets for buggy/truck rear , buggy front, and truck front will be available first with individuals to follow later.

Everyone I know who runs them all say the same, better than Losi and AE, as good or slightly better than Kyosho. And price is so much better than Kyosho that its a no brainer.
