Idk if any of you have ever driven at Coyote hobbies Raceway in Victorville, but if you have do you think mid motor would benefit over rear motor at this track?

Fyi the b5 top plate fits right into the b4 front bulkhead. This, in theory, that all the b5 front end parts below the top plate will bolt right up to any b4 front end.

I'm going to laugh if AE never comes out with a FT edition for this buggy

Never driven there but I have seen it. It seems like a mid to high clay track which means the MM would do well and the RM would as well so its your choice I would think about how wet they run the track because if it is then I would prefer RM but that's just me

George, you gonna get the rear motor first, then the mm when it's released?

Gonna take the centro to the shooting range? Lol

Maybe put it in the train tracks and wait

Oh

Maybe someone else will shoot up their centros. It's what I do with old appliances.

Jeff at first I was kinda into the new rear.
But my budget says delay till the mid is available.

For Trcr or 4S ?

Mid will always be my best choice thus no real need for the rear B5 for me.


Clayton , how bout a slightly used C4 ? ha

who is this? i also race there. mid and rear both do good, most of the mod buggy drivers have switched to mid, and some of the stock racers have gone to mid also now. it seems like the track can somewhat favor midmotor if that is possible

Remember, Dahotah Phend won Nat's on the highest traction surface they ran all year with RM. There proves ther is no dirt surface that RM cannot do as well as MM on. That may continue until MM is further developed with things like tires specifically for it (anybody try 4wd fronts?).

its supposed to be a secret!!!!!!!

Where is that servo running? Do they have a channel under the battery for it?
