Stefan. No conversion needed.
Basically a offroad buggy with an oval body on it.
It takes about $40 bucks to make a b4 into an MDM ($30 of that being the body). I can take some pics of how you mount it if your interested.
Other than that it is pretty much like a mod buggy offroad class. You can't put any oval specific parts on the car, and must run offroad style tires and wheels.
Cheap to get into and very fun.

Thanks

Here are the pics
the nose comes with the body and u leave part of the back side of it not cut out and screw it in with the bumper
The front is a piece of lexan screwed on to were the front body mount is and a whole drilled in the center bar with the body mount in the "gap" screwed in from the bottom.
It is an Associated 6330 body mount kit, that ryan has a couple of at the track.
The back is a piece of lexan mounted to the wing mounts with Kyosho rb5 battery posts as body mounts KYOUM504
Bryce has his rb5 using the front body mount off an rt5 for the back mount, but his wing mounts are farther apart than the b4 so i cant off hand remember if they would work on a b4 KYOUM554
I saw this and thought it might work to screw into the highest shock hole on the shock tower not sure though. xray 808 Rear Body Post. XRA351330

Thanks for the pic.s and info guy's. The oval cars look like a lot of fun and is a tradition with Albion. Talked with Robbie yesterday about where to race this winter and the EDM cars look awsome. He's lookin for a B4 and I will use Stefans Losi buggy and he will run his B4.
See you guy's soon.

Little more banking, still got the pipe around the inside.
A guy with a sprint from over in the stl area said he was coming and I know of a couple more guys that will definately be there.
There will definately be a bigger crowd for this race. Hopefully we will get to actually race this time.

Order directly from McAllister Racing. They are very easy to work with and cheapest.

We got the Ransomville one, because it is the only one that comes with the nose pice. The Volusia one is not legal for this class. Either the Ransomville or Syracuse.
We have 3 in stock also.
