Anyone come up with a better way to attach the front wheels on the B4's? I'm not real thrilled with the little screw that comes with the kit and I actually had the wheel come flying off yesterday when testing some adjustments in my yard. I'm thinking of a nylon nut on threaded rod or something like that.

Light weight pinions are most useful when running a 1/12 carpet car .
In off-road the motor has a transmission with gears & slipper and their weight cancels out any usefulness a lite pinion can give....

Anyone running kyosho shocks on their b4s? If you are what gains did you see?
I feel like with some playing Ive gotten my v2 shocks pretty good. The hardest part was trying to get the springs not to rub. Ive played with the non big bore Kyosho springs and they help with that issue although the rear springs are a bit short.
Im considering getting a set but wondering if it would be worth the cash. Thanks!

It doesn't cancel it out. That weight in the transmission was always there. It only lessens the effect. But the benefits are still there, just not enough to make most people notice

K Springs
I made the switch to K-Springs and tried them for the first time friday night. The car felt great and didn't chassis slap nearly as hard as the AE springs. I ended up with the Orange Fronts and Cobalt Blue Rears. They are a bit larger dia but set on the shock great and do not rub on the rear shock.
Very happy with them at this point.
