You are reading way too much into it LOL. The entire point of me posting the pic was that I posted it when I did this back in the winter and you laughed at me saying no way would I do it.. so I just quoted you saying you were thinking about it

balls were being broken.... or not........
lol, meh. now I am bored and just doing stuff to my car. I have an issue with the b4 and I am trying to fix it, lol. And no, buying the rb6 is not the fix I want, lol.

You knew the answer before I even had to say it

if you are having an issue, throw the kit setup on and start from scratch. That's what I always used to do. Kind of a "reset button" for tinkering. Works wonders LOL

I did that. I need something radical. the car is not not stable at high speeds on the slightly bumpy straight. I think that this mod will make it worse, but meh, I will try anyway. My though was the 22 and rb6 are inline and they feel great, so why not try it on the b4. Its probaly kickup/anti squat/shock package issue. But i like my shock package everywhere else.

Anyway, so cav's car looked like crap in practice. the line looks small. when he was in it, it was on rails, when he went out even just a little, he was fish tailing like mad. They put less sugar on that pre worlds. But I see the tires are getting destroyed in the pics. Kinda wondering if the bite is high enough for MM.

I agree with you on shortening the wires, I curl them around a peice of antenna tube, here is recent pic, I am doing some testing with weights, hopefully the new JC ballcups will be here today.

Out in Covington, at Hazel Creek, its a little big for the B4.2, but the track has good bite. As soon as I get a car I will be able to get out to TRCR which is where I would like to run, especially with winter coming the Hazel Creek will be closing.

looking good derb! hes holding the title right now

what are peoples thoughts on the xp1313 vs the 1015 for this car? i had the 1015 and it went bye bye the other day. so i was gonna buy another but i snuck a peek under georges hood and saw he has the 1313. so i decided to save 25$. Geo is fast with it, i bet i can be too.
