Hey bob when have u tried the stock ae springs? unless im mistaken u told me u ran the tlr right from the start of ur 6 year break...
I can't comment on the shocks but the springs are nice for us because they don't bind on the shock body. They also feel more consistant, and I feel more stable.
I think that you will find 90% of the people mentioning Big Bores are referring to the springs alone and not the entire shock.

have you tried a standard pad on the inside and a high torque pad on the outside yet? if yu have what are your thoughts..
Also what do yu think about the white pad? I havent tried that yet...

A common mistake is to run the slipper tight .
You are giving up traction . Also can experience more wheel spin when accelerating and when ever you are going into the corner ?
Too much steering , makes it difficult not to bump or saw off the corner to tight ..
Try to loosen and adjust so your ft end only rises a couple inch's...
You should experience fewer mistakes and go even faster...
BTW Try again the standard pads as the heavy duty pad is way to much for the B4 and would only make it difficult to achieve the correct slip...

there was a article in the r/c car action this month. they are releasing a worlds edition with all the parts including the weight ballast,8+ chasis,carbon and plastic parts and the likes. there was no mention of the bigbores or diffrent b/b springs. no price point was set but i imagine the market for this will be competitive.

Worlds car
It would make sense that AE would take advantage of their win with a updated car. I just wanted to hear what the word on the street was. I really not have a lot of racing time with the family and all. But my two oldest are venturing to the track with me now and running short course. I have always been a 2wd guy with all the mags having a new kit or a worlds revised kit I have a lot of choices. I did not want to pull the trigger too early. Tlr22, b4 worlds, and not to mention rb5 wc and durango210. All the kits are really refined and there is not a bad pick of the bunch. I guess I will just save my money for a new kit and update a few electronics items for the kids and myself.

big boars are a must and defiantly included,newer springs rolling 8mm chassis,and i think they should make the turnbuckles gold. lol

did not list any spring/shock info. i would figure that would be a high lite as that seems to be the biggest topic in here.

You need the slipper to perform just right or you won't ...
Set it by holding the back wheels & blip the throttle , set the slipper so the ft end rise about 2 to 3 inch's in the air...
White pads R out , the yellow is more consist ant and does not glaze as easily as the white...
