You could be right. Out of habit I always insert mine from the "shinny" side, going as far back as the original B4.

you mean locktite? The ball stud threads into the alum plate, correct? So yeah, your going to need loctite. How are you liking the car? You were running a centro, right?

AE is going to the JC indoor race this weekend in MO. So you might be able to get some video from that and also see how the car stacks up. I looks to be a mid motor style track, so we can see how the B4 RM does.

I think he was looking for video of the B5 running. I would assume A-main stuff with the b5

Will the older and larger transponders fit in front of the servo and under the linkage like the smaller MyLaps do? Tempted to buy a MyLaps if the older doesn't fit.

what race weights are you guys seeing? I know the b5 is heavier, but what are your non titianium decked out cars weighting? I am sure once the pucks are out, TI axles and so on, the car will be light. But what is the out of the box RTR race weight? And yes I know some tires and closed cells weight more.
