Don't everyone give up on the AE truck yet...Chris and I figured some things out this weekend and the truck was really good. Baum had the wrong tires on the front of his truck and still won. Our trucks were very easy to drive and didnt get slower as the track dried out. Looked like all of the other trucks in the main were on edge.
We are going to work on the setup a little more next weekend but our trucks are WAY better than they were a couple weeks ago.

Trev....I think I may have to dremel it a bit. Even if I spin the pack around as Mike M suggests, the leads won't clear the strap. I'm using the Reedy lipo and the leads have pretty thick rubber around them where the male end plugs are. I'll see whats up with the stock plastic battery strap...maybe it works better. The other option is that I can make my own leads and not have the thick rubber in the way...it actually causes issues with other cars/trucks I tried it in.

As far the ZX5 FS...that build was a bit of a pain in the @ss compared to building a B44!!! It is a quality car but the whole Kyosho parts tree thing sucks and there was alot of triming of plastic after cutting parts from trees. They give you parts trees with alot of parts you don't use
....makes it a bit confusing. These are just my opinions and everyone has their own.

Sorry Joe but you can't have your B44 back, I like winning races with it!
