Beedee-I've been racing a B44 variant since it came out...BJ4...BJ4 Worlds...B44...B44.1. The B44.1 is very durable! The only thing I occasionally break are rear end gears...but I run my slipper tight at WC due to the high traction. There has been a 4whl class lately at WC on Sundays and will probably continue until the Nationals in August!

I just added Avid Big Bore springs and Dayum!

STi foreva...

Got a new B44.1 and I'm Lovin' this car, the best handling RC car I have driven in a very long time, if not ever, and I been in this hobby 20+ years. So much fun to drive that it has me pumped about racing all over again!!

Awesome car!!

Thanks for the great pics! For some reason when I soldered up my motor the other night I decided to run the wires over the cf center brace. Looks much cleaner running them underneath though, I'll have to make that change.

Rear camber link ball cups pop off rather easy on this new kit. Thinking its just a bad one because same one kept popping off last night at the track. Are there better ones? I used to use the RPM ones years ago but how are they these days?

RPM's are good; Lunsford HD ones even better.

Isn't that cute!

My B44.1 came in today so hopefully I can be out there causing wrecks next week.

Well I should be getting a B44.1 in a few days. I bought it off a member here. It has Losi springs on it, will the Avid's be much better? I want the best performance.

Very excited to drive it!!

10-4, I'll order them.

Should I order the whole set for front and rear or do you guys know which springs to use? Just trying to save a little money.
