For our races out here, sure

ROAR legal though I don't know. Its more so for my daughter on dirt to help save the front end. On carpet it was common to run the bumper on a the T4 and B4s. since it didn't dig in gave some extra protection.

I think the RPM mini bumper though may be legal. It really doesn't stick out far.

Wow that's the first I've heard a negative comment on them. Any speculation as to the issue?

Questions??

I posted this here because I am NOT running big bore shocks(v2 w/Avid springs). With the latest track change at my local indoor clay (med-high bite), there are higher, longer jumps. The rear of my 2wd blinky buggy has started to slap. I was going to use the next smaller hole pistons to increase pack. Should I change all 4 or just the rear? Also, what are the advantages/disadvantages to using inline vs trailing steering blocks? Thanks.

Drop half a weight in your rear shock oil as well to keep static dampening near what it was for the lower speed bumps. Inline steering blocks tend to make the front end very darty and difficult to control. Try it out to find out for yourself, but do it on a practice day, not a qualifier

Hey Cherry, I just sold my 22 and picked up FT B4.2, you have a good 6.5 or 7.5 mod setup sheet for our area? I'll be building it this weekend. I hated the 22 so I'll give the B4 a shot. I miss the finesse driving 2wd requires.

No one uses this thread JSTALL.

became obsolete when the B4.2 was released not merged with the B4.2 thread long ago to avoid confusion ..

Welcoming you to the new B4.2 thread ....
