I have an old b4 that I want to get ready for our buggy class which is set to start this spring. It has the original B4 FT shocks on it that are super old and in need of replacement. I have a guy at the the track that says he has a like new pair of V2 shocks left over after he upgraded to the Big bores that he will let go for $20.00. Should I go with these or just sell off my buggy and get the new one. I feel just buying the big bores separate is not worth it $ wise. The car does need some work... a new dif, some shimming to get rid of slop... as I said it is the original B4. Any other big improvements I should consider that have came out through the years? I do have both the b4 chassis and a t4 chassis. The T4 chassis ends up being about the same wheelbase as a 22, and is super stable, although it pushes some. I'm not sure if the class is going to take off, as we mostly just race SC around here. I would like a decent platform for when I travel to bigger races however.

I guess what I'm really asking is can you feel a big diff between the big bores and the v2 ft shocks..
