The X Factory kit uses alot of there own parts so its more like a ground up build meant for MM use only. I think its gonna be the better option over the C4.1.

Associated Area 51 has to be working on something with team drivers testing it so often with inline setups. Once they get it down might see an AE chassis upgrade or B5.

Was checking out an RB6 yesterday at our track, huge shocks. Would like to try them on a B4.2. Chassis was 5mm longer too. Don't know if anything is better or just different. Durango is coming in out with +11 mm chassis too, seems like more people wanting buggies in my area.

Anyone excited about the re-release RC10 Gold Pan?

I really wanna pick up one and do a full Associated electronics setup on it.

I wonder if the old platform can handle mod or stock motors better...

I cant wait, my first rc car was a Gold pan I bought at a Garage Sale in 1988 (not 100% on the year) it came with a little black tekin esc (cannot remember the model #) it worked flawlessly, until I bout a case of motors at a different garage sale, that was when I learned about turn limit from a local hobby shop owner.

I have some rear arms sitting in my box. How can I tell if they are B4 plastic or B44 rear arms? I didn't mark them so I have no idea.

hi.
im interested in the b4.2 and i have some questions.
at first i wanted a 4wd but than some dude at my track said i should thing of starting with a 2wd to improve my driving otherwise ill probably brake the fragile 4wd. (i drive a little aggressive)
so i wanted to ask if you think it can help me in the driving and if you think i can enjoy it as much as the 4wd.
is it fast and quick as the 4wd?

This chassis had it installed when I got it but my local hobby shop carries it. Maniacs Hobbies here in South Florida. Even their guys didn't know they carried it. LOL They saw my car and instantly asked the same question.
