Kind of a silly statement there.

Do my shocks feel good on the bench? Sure.. then again I am not racing my buggy on a bench nor am i racing my buggy my moving the shock up and down.. You build it and stick it on the track where it belongs

Yes it does belong on the track. There is no substitute for a clean, well built, well maintained, and properly maintained machine. If it's not right on the bench then it will not be right on the track. But I digress, what springs should I be running?

What ever springs work for your driving style and your track.

I run Losi BB red/white and love it.

Rear wheels mount 'ok', wheel flange is a bit thicker. I use my old 22 spares for practice.

Out of curiosity, what prompted everyone (most everyone) to change to BB springs? Was it the me too syndrome? Was there some real problem with the stock springs? Is there some sort of BB spring manufacture takeover in progress? Just wondering...

Before I start pulling the parts off my FT B4.1 that will fit on my SC10 RS I wanted to see if anyone is interested in a trade for a FT T4.1? I don't run the B4.1 all that well and would hate to see it get torn down if I can't get a T in its place. Its super clean and ready to go.

Need to know what parts are needed to run bb springs and 22 rims. Switching from a 22 to 4.1 and I have a lot of mounted rims I'd like to use if possible. Thanks in advance.
