Thanks for your replies Even though I'd like to hear different. On thought I had:
The B5R has more weight on the rear axle (RA), the B5M FL should have nearly the same (or most likely) a little more weight. So the added weight would be partially at the RA. So if a (just a example) B5R weighs 1500 and the B5M FL 1650 it could be possible that both share (nearly) the same load on the rear axle. So the difference would be the longer distance between the wheels (dont know the english term) and that most of the mass (motor) is nearer to the center of rotation (which I think is good).

Are my thoughts wrong? What do I miss (as you can see I am looking for reasons that are pro B5M )

And ragarding the track: It's my first year there and I cant tell if the track is most likely to be that dry (like dusty dry) ore more likely wet sticky clay.
