It's obvious.

Yes, look at the weight distribution. I guess you missed the side-by-side picture in my previous post. But there is more than just the chassis layout. As others have pointed out, there are limited...

stop the hate

We've all heard for years that the only reason AE wins is because of the drivers. Well this was a world championship where none of the major manufacturers sent teams, and AE still won. But this one...

I'll bet it was CML that told him to "cut it out" rather than AE. CML distributes AE and Yokomo in the UK, and that's why the team drivers in the UK wouldn't run the BJ4 either. However, they all...

Sosidge's post wasn't questioned because he made a basic, conceptual statement. You used the terms exact, copy, hijacked, etc.

The "ability for all four wheels to transmit power on any terrain" comes from the suspension, not the transmission. All of the components have to work together, but the suspension is the biggest...

The 501x tranny/drivetrain is based on the TA-05, but I tend to think that the suspension is what really characterizes an off-road car. With that in mind, the suspension geometry on the 501x is an...

Nice selection of where to use upper case letters Roger, but I can't say I'm surprised. I think you should have emphasized the "FOR ME" in your post. Considering the saddle pack chassis layout on...

wide vs narrow

All that broke was the servo horn, and he lost steering. We converted his truck (which broke in the last round), so we think it was already cracked before he even started the main.

I understand the fanboy comment, and I agree with you on that point. I just don't understand the BJ4 label, when he specifically said another car was better than the BJ4. :weird:

Jason is running a BJ4WE.

The picture on Oople was just meant to show the new body, which fits both the BJ4WE and B44. The picture was taken with Jason's body on a B44.
