oh I have no clue. I think thats why they have been bouncing around so much giving me ulcers trying to keep up.

All I know is that I will NOT do the spring dance again

I beleive the avid springs are all big bore sized, so you can still use them on the regular v2 shocks you will just need all the losi cups and rpm/traxxas collars.

I wasnt saying get rid of blue altogether. Just get rid of the blue on the seal cap. I know its AE's sig color...

I dont mind a splash of color... but i dont like my chassis having four different colors of blue. I think the only blue on my T/B4 is the servo mounts?

My 8T has a good amount of blue... but i opted for the carbon towers to avoid that excessive blueness...

I can't wait! My only reason for npt converting my B4.1 and my SC10 to Losi BB springs is because all the talk that these will be out soon.

I thought this for a long time aswell. But its super cheap.

2x Losi spring sets $9
2x Traxxas collars $5

$14 was well worth the investment as a hold over.

You left out the cost of the springs not to mention all the mixing and matching to duplicate what im running now.

You did the same mistake that I did.. I just bought the RTR because it came with everything I think I wanted.. But now that I got into racing I realized I should've just got the FT.. That is why in like a month or tow I'm going to buy the World Car..

Umm I know one thing that I realized (driving others) is how big of a differnece that 8+mm chassis did.. Then the 30degree hubs up front (changes the whole car if you ask me) then I heard 0 hubs in the back makes the car a whole different car but dont take that word from me.

Start saving for a worlds car and dont upgrade the rtr. Run it til you have the money for the worlds car.

Are you absolutely sure that there is nothing that would make the rtr better?
