+1. I've gone back and forth between the two, and I personally like the .5 hubs better. Just suits my driving style better I suppose. I try to like the 0 degree, but I'm always going back to the .5.

From another thread:

Here is more detailed listing. Prices are off A-Main hobbies.
T4 to sc10 conversion

9814 Battery hold down- 9.00
9816 Front bumper- 9.00
9817 Rear bumper- 10.00
9819 Motor guard- 6.00
9820 Body mounts- 6.00
9821 Body posts- 5.00
9822 Nerf bars- 4.00
9823 SC10 chassis- 22.00
9824 Rear shock tower- 6.00 (optional)
9825 Front shock tower- 5.00
Body- 25.00 and up
Wheels- 12.00 x2
Tires 18.00 x2 and up

Total 167.00
This is the bare minimum needed.

IMO, not worth it since you can usually find an sc10 roller for $150 an below.

I was looking into getting either the B4.1 or the Losi 22, and I was wondering what motor setups people are using for running Mod Buggy. This is a very popular class at my local track, and I am looking to get the right motor to help me compete. Thanks!

if your new go with the 19t class or the stock class so you get the hang of the car without a fast moter. novak,orion,lrp and team epic moters are popular just pick one most have so if you need help its there. goes for the car and the moter..

Depends on the track. The really fast guys use 8.5/10.5, and some use 13.5. You really don't benefit from the faster motors unless you're really good. Slower is faster for the most part.

He was refering to the guy saying that he wanted to switch from a T4 to an sc10. To some people short course racing is seen as a "fender banging, crash fest" and jpcopeland was giving him a hard time for wanting to switch, oh well...

which ones do you use and how long do they last you. Also what kind of charger are you running?
