Has anyone some more experience on the comparison between the B6D and B5m (FL) on loose clay with low/medium grip?

This car is faster and easier to drive than b5m lite. I'm on a b6d. I won my first rookie race at OCRC tonight on its maiden voyage. It's a keeper

Slash and used b5m lite didn't get it done for me lol

Thanks, had a look at ocrc and that's not a loose clay track for me
But good to hear. I think the advantage of the B6 inincreases if the track has more grip...

Other than being certain that both C-block pills are installed symmetrically, to maintain 2.5 toe, 1 anti-squat, put the center dot in the aluminum D-block.

The reference to remember is that:

center-dot on both the C and D blocks yields 3 degrees toe and 1 degree anti-squat. If you keep that in mind, you simply add or subtract values from that reference.

In your example, I have a B6 as well, (.5 out removes 1/2 degree rear toe) on the C-block and center-dot on the D-block, yields 2.5 degrees toe and maintains 1 degree anti-squat. Math checks out, all you need to remember is center-dot on both blocks = 3 toe. 1 anti-squat and adjust from there.

It gets confusing for some because with the alu D-block, you can also adjust values from there as well, whereas the plastic D-block is static at the center-dot.

So if your looking at the .5 pill there is also a dot on it that dot will tell you where the hing pin is going to sit right. After looking at the book again we have the .5 pill in the right way but do I use the pill 0* to give me centerNow on the D mount I want to use the 0* pill for center

I'm not too keen on the way the battery strap attaches, looks like we need a nut driver to remove the battery.

Sweet rig. Did you take the paint off the AE aluminum shock caps? If so, how did you do it? I also like all the other silver bits!

In that pic it definitely 'looks' odd but you need to pay attention to the dots. The hinge pin is moved further in by .5. Stock pin width is like the B5m with the GHEA +2 inserts. So you can alter it all quite a bit.
