associated blowing out 4.1 with Big bores, 250

So they're more or less giving you a 4.2 with plastic steering, 4.1 stickers, and no hexes.. Add an AVID rack and you're at the same price as the 4.2. They need to drop it another $25 IMO.

Looks just like my ride ...Ha!

Not really much of a blow out. I only payed $30 more for my b4.2.

most of the shops are selling the 4.1 itself for 200-250 i think.
not with the big bores and springs.

A few weeks ago I upgraded to a 4.2. With my previous 4.1 I ran the out of the box setup no mods or upgrades and was happy with it. I built the 4.2 to the stock setup and it is waaaaaay to twitchy. Basicly the only difference between the two are the big bores and the alum steering rack. The 4.1 was over a yr old but well maintained with regular parts replaced so it had very little slop. Does anyone prefer the plastic steering\savor over the alum?

I preferred the plastic. I wanted more weight transfer to the rear, and the Avid rack was preventing that.

Hmmmm I never thought about the extra weight up front, I was just thinking the alum parts had no flex compared to the plastic stuff in turn causing the twitchyness. I've never turned my dual rate down before but with the 4.2 had to dial it back to 82% just so I could drive the thing.

Less anti squat shim?

I havn't tried any setup changes except for dropping down to 27.5 shock oil then down to 25wt last wk. This week I'm going back up to 30wt but with the 1.7 pistons. My local track in the winter is a 2hr drive and we don't get much practice before the heats to try a lot of things.

Sounds like you need to move

Cole, dont forget a new car is gonna be twitchy feeling compared well used one. It took a whole day at the track for my new B4.2 to lose the twitch.

Got some metal for shelves for the ESC, I was just wondering how many of u are still interested in one?
