yeah, that is a lot of use. Sometimes I wish I could spend more time at the track trying different things and working and my driving. We have a nice indoor track here, but it is like clay concrete and I would spend about $200 a month on tires driving that much, lol. And those darn kids seem to want to eat.

I like to go with a couple guys who are bro and we keep the track swept on the wkend and we run slicks and scuff up tires for racetime. But we drive on slick to keep our driving honest and stay on clean lines. So when we get good tires on we drive harder and we are faster then

Hey everyone i just got a thunder tiger phoenix st II, from what ive gathered it is basically the same as an rc10t4 or a t3, what do you guys think of it as my its my first rc car, cheers. (will post pics but on my phone right now)

U may have part support probs and setup issues if ur not good at tuning.

sounds almost as cool as that guy who was showcasing his all aluminum b4 a few months ago

have a qusetion just converted to the rb5 shocks on my b4 what shock oil should i start with front and rear ?

Where can I get those special nonwearing outdrives

30wt front and 27.5wt rear is a good start

Hi all

I just finished reading this entire thread, and I have just one question: What parts do I need for BB spring conversion?

No seriously, thanks for all the great info here. Its a pleasure to have such a rich source of knowledge about this car

I just bought a cheap, lightly used b4.1 RTR that im going to use to try out 1:10 buggy.

My first race is the 18. of next month.
Wish me luck

<- Right here baby....

Big bores or standard "K" shocks? If big bores you would want to run losi 55 piston with 30 front 27.5 rear. Standard shocks 30/27.5 works well with 3b pistons.

I was just looking at the AE buggies from the HRR and it looks like they are all running hex in the front, dunno about the rear. So lets start the Hex discussion again, lol.

No thank you...switch to hex and be done with it. On a side note...i noticed they are running "round" tires. What is up with that? Back in the day they were hexagonal. Kids today with there special round tires...Sheesh!

Hex? heck we had square tires and man mileage was horrible.

Tangent...
Did anyone see the Mythbusters episode where they put a set of square wheels on an F-350?
