Has anyone noticed their chassis is bent like a banana ?
After only a few race meets mine is , no big crashes etc , same deal with my 17 ?
Its not to do with the flex screws because the bend starts where the spurs is .

I've ran mine straight into a brick wall and a steel pole and never bent a chassis.

What the best setup to keep the rear of the buggy from losing traction on power?

Hi,
Needs your help here, as I never ran spec before.
Can you recommend for best 13.5T motor and with which gear?
Will use it with the Orion HMX blinky.
The track is Norcal Hobbies, small indoor clay track.
Setup help will also be appreciated...

Thanks

Default Hex
I have the 2018 xb4. I'm trying to figure out the chart at the start of this topic about hexes I would like to reuse my wheels from tlr 22-4 since I have a bunch. What hexes do I need front / rear ?

Ive used the stock front hexes and 6.5 mm rear hexes with those wheels and it seems pretty close to stock width

With the XB2 2019 just being announced I can't imagine a new XB4 being that far behind.
