I love it.The new steering arms look interesting too.
I run outdoor med to good grip dirt/clay mix and the car just loves it.The few tekno that have showed up look impressive but not as dialed.More time on the 64 for us I know..

The 64 is easier to wrench on, has a wider setup window, and carries more corner speed. The Tekno is a better jumper and more forgiving lander.

I have broken those too, I make a habit of checking them now by checking that the screw that goes into the post on top is snug - if it spins freely, that means the post is broken! The bottom screw will still be snug because the bottom of the post is keyed it was still in place but when I wiggle the post it snapped right off.i try not to tighten the screw on top because the steering rack wont spin freely so i leave it little less then snug.that post seems so solid,I thought the top plate would break before the steering post

V2 Spring Rates
Don't know if this has been covered but could not find anything with a search. I am looking to go up in spring rate on my B64D but am now confused by the V2 spring rates that are being quoted. If I want to go from yellow front, up one spring rate, do I go to red in the new V2 spring? Looks like the V1 and V2 red springs don't have the same rate. Is there a new chart somewhere?

There is a chart somewhere. Maybe buried in the B6.1 thread? Would be good if someone could add this info to the various associated vehicle wikis. That said, there was also some driver feedback that suggested Associated had done a good job of making it so one could compare v1 & v2 springs based solely on color if they wanted to move up/down in sittin rate.
