I personally think that is too much timing. For sure too much for the type of gear ratios we were talking about. I prefer to keep the timing lower because I think it make the power curve broader. With more timing gearing must be spot on or it doesn't run right.

That's actually Brent's setup from the JC Indoor nationals and it is a B5 setup not a B5m.

Lunsford says,
2 - Titanium Front Axles
2 - 3mm x 6mm Stainless Button Head Screws
I'd say they are like the factory axles.

I just sold my RB6. Ran it in mid motor and rear motor. Did very well with it. What would you like to know? Both are great cars. I think the only real big advantage the AE has on the RB6 right now is the adjustable front trailing axle -- that really makes RM on small tight tracks so much better. Other than that, I can't say anything extremely one way or another on either. The RB6 is nice that you can convert it, but damn, the b5 in RM is so super plush--up until driving my new b5, I would have always given the nod to kyosho on shocks, but the b5 is like a frigg'n cat, and I can't explain why, it just is.

Feel free to ask specifics.

I was a long time kyosho supporter, I've driven rb5, rb6, 22, b4.2, etc. IMO my B5 drives as well/better out of the box then my rb6 did after a year of tuning and driving and I absolutely loved my rb6. However the B5 feels just that more planted and easy to drive, if I had to give a direct compare, the B5 stock setup drives like a RM rb6 with the jap setup with .5 hubs and gold springs, if you ever tried it.

Either way if u do switch I don't think you'll regret it
