based on what I am seeing that is different between the B4.1 FT and the Worlds, and comparing that to the T4.1 Factory team, seems you would get 0 degree hubs instead of the .5's and the ballast weight. There may be some other items, but that would appear to be it?

Or, in short really not that much different as far as changes to the car.

Ae most likely isn't going to sit still, I would say we probably will just see a T4.2 when the big bore stuff gets sorted out after selling them outright for a bit.

I am running 22t fronts on my sc10 and t4. The rears have the same spring rate for the 22 and 22t. I am pretty sure they r the same. My first run wit them will be this weekend at the Bigfoot event at mikes in Dallas. What ride height r u guys using for ur t4. I am running 30mm for my sc10 and 23 for my b4.

Rates are the same, but they have different part numbers which leads me to believe there is something different.

I've been hoping they'll act sooner than later on the BB stuff. I've been holding off on ordering the Ghea collars and losi springs to see what AE comes up with. I can't imagine they're sitting idle being that all the other manufacturers already have them.

wouldnt worry abut ghea collars, just grab the traxxas stuff (can even use the lower cups with alittle body reamer action)

then you can easily do the full mod cheaply and effectively.

2x TRA3768 Traxxas Shock Spring Retainers (Upper & Lower) [each set is only enough for 2 shocks] $5.58

1x TLR5182 Team Losi Racing Front Shock Spring Set (Green - 3.5 Rate) $4.59

1x TLR5164 Team Losi Racing Rear Shock Spring Set (Yellow - 2.0 Rate) $4.59
-or-
1x TLR5178 Team Losi Racing Front Shock Spring Set (Pink - 2.3 Rate) $4.59

SOO $14.76

I know this is off the subject, but I have been experiencing an intermittent problem with my t4.1, after charging my lipo, SOMETIMES when I put the battery in the car, plug in the deans connectors, turn on the transmitter, then the car...the light on the receiver doesn't do the beeping deal and turn green. Instead it will just flash red. Almost like it needs to be binded again, but that doesn't help.. Like I said this only happens every now and then, but when it does I usually have to wait hours even up to a day to try it again before it will turn on and turn green and actually work. I've searched everywhere for a similar problem, but no luck. This is very upsetting to have happen to you especially when your at the track and ready to race but it just wants to flash red...help! Any ideas??!

If your using the rtr esc I have had this happen once I found out that I had accidentally put into set-up mode. I just went through the instructions and re-did the set-up and it has worked fine ever since. I hope his helps.

Throttle profile, Drag brake, Lipo cut-off, reverse lockout...

The confusion was just a bonus for me.

So, I switched to the rcrd chassis even though my lighter batteries aren't here yet. Drove all day today, and had to completely redo my suspension. By the 3rd pack the suspension was working well. The truck felt heavy and lazy, just like I remembered it from before. I'm not thrilled with the way it drives currently, but can only hope that the lighter batteries will bring it back to life. Hopefully my batteries arrive this week (I didn't realize how long things can take from Hobbyking).

Does anyone know how I would turn a rtr T4.1 into a sprit car? Adjacent to the track we're building, there's an excellent dirt oval club that runs on Saturdays. I'd like to convert my rtr since I picked up a FT

I'm thinking of buying one of these, they are just starting up a ST class at some of my tracks and I'm sick of only running one class and I have no interest in buggies.

You guys have 30 seconds to talk me out of clicking "Confirm order" lol, GO!
