My new favorite B4 killer

Post by mdutcher »

This car sat for almost a year as I was trying to decide what to do with it. Nothing too original, just another fun build.

I was after a similar setup to my B4.2. I think that i achieved it.

-Dynotech/Klein arms
-Big bore shocks
-GT front axles
-10T front end
-RC Carbon Works shock towers
-Losi rear hubs
-B44 CVDs
-XP 1313 Servo
-Reedy 17.5T motor
-Novak GTB2 ESC

It was every bit as competitive to anything modern on the track, if not more. I am not that great of a driver.

Hi there, lovely RC10 you have there. I tried to pm you but it just wouldn't let me. I was wondering what Losi rear hubs were you using? As for the Dynotech arms, are they the same one as their sprint cars? I have a re re Worlds Car and I would love to do the mods that you did on your RC10. I've stopped RC for awhile and now am planning to get back and I had an RC10 Team Car back in the day. Thanks :)

Not digging the front wheels being wider.

But, that's just me.

Some custom works rear spacers will bump out the rear width nicely.

I like my front tires like I like my women. Real thick and juicy. :mrgreen: Black is ok as long as their grip is just right. If the track is loose I like for them to have nice big nipples to keep me from sliding off. Their nipples should be soft and supple too. You know, the kind that makes the whole body shake when you run your finger across them. :wink: Then again sometimes ribs are nice. They stick out and allow for nice handle to keep your mind busy so you don't finish too quickly and blow it under the pressure. If the track is wet, then I like to pull out the paddles. Then you can just use your rudder to guide her where you want her to go like a little man in a rowboat. The main thing you have to remember is that it's not the size of the tire, but how you steer it. :wink:

excellent work thumbs, pure poetry.

Buggy looks good! Might want to consider some bracing due to the shortened tub height.
