I went with the Lunsford Ti turnbuckles and they fit very well.

Contemplating picking up a 4.0 just to try out, tlr front wheels aren't proprietary anymore are they? I've got at a minimum 20 sets of front tires mounted and unused for my b6/B5m and if I fall in love with the tlr I'd hate to take a beating getting rid of a bunch of brand new wheels and tires that won't fit.

Unfortunately, your AE rims won't fit. 22 4.0 has a 12mm hex like the B5/B6 but a different offset.

Well that sucks - I assume the rears are ok?

AE rear wheels are .75 mil narrower offset, using wheels shim washers fixes that. i bought some plain aluminum ones awhile back forgot brand, but i have to use them when running schumacher rears which are even narrower than AE

something like this that onroad racers use for various wheels, offsets, and tuning

So with the current clearance that is going on at MIP I ended up ordering the puck system for the 2.0 which is $15 but comes with the shorter C-CVD's but the R-CVD yokes are $8 and the exotek titanium dogbones that are proper length for $20. So for $43 total I got the lightweight setup but with the stronger titatium bones vs aluminum.

Is the servo mounted in back of the servo mounts pretty much becoming the standard?

That's a steal! Very tempting, but I might go with the SR components once released. Does anyone know why MIP is having a fire sale?

They said they are clearing everything out for new SKUs.

I just need to test it ... if all goes well, I'll put it on Shapeways and Sculpteo for purchase. I need to review the rules here about selling things like this, though.

Spindle ballstud referenced on setup sheet is location A/B on the front right? Are all the ballstuds in the kit standard or do we have low mounts?

I have a loose condition now after installing a front wing.

I'm running TLR Silver on the front, TLR Grey on the rear. Our track is high traction clay.
Prior to installing the wing i could keep my rear end planted, however was having trouble getting through the corners smoothly.

Adding the wing has corrected my steering, but now i'm having a horrible spin out situation.

Raced last night, and the buggy started out pretty well, but progressively went down hill through the course of the night.

What is my best course of action to correct this?

I have my buggy setup according to the kit except for the springs, and was running Positrons last night.
