Been Running the BB for a little while now and all I can say is they are awesome! Also the Reedy Shorty is a must! The car feels dialed out on the track!

Really? I don't know much about physics or anything but I thought it would make more sense to run them the same way they were before, towards the back..but what do I know

Then that would require a lock nut and there is not much room to spare with the rim.

Ok here is my current setup let me know what you think and what i could improve on besides Big Bores:

B4.1 Worlds Car
Avid Steering Rack
Avid Carbon Fiber rear Hub Carriers
Big Bore Springs

What else could I get that could help performance? (I have plenty of tires.)

how is it useless? I run 2 washers and the A Hubs. If I went no washers and C hub, it would raise my roll center, but camber gain would be the same. Raising and lower the stud is camber gain, everyone running the 2mm lower rod is increasing roll center.

Running the c hub with no shaved brace is a lower roll center then the A hub with 2 washers.

Ok...are you talking about two washers with the shaved brace or non shaved? When you run a c-hub you ALWAYS run a shaved u-brace then put washers in as needed...those tracks would be mostly high bite...you run A-hubs with unshaved u brace on bumpy lower grip outdoor tracks..and again..use washers as needed.

Anyone need a body for their B4.1 WC and matching T4.1? Even a car stand.
I have gotten bored with my old scheme and these are extras....

I would have been all over that if they were JC Finishers. Those look really cool

hmm, I was always told lower link is higher roll center... although it does make sense that lower link is a lower roll center. either way, the change does something. not nothing. several people are shaving and adding back 1mm washers, so going +2mm or a non shaved brace is not nothing.
