Liking that a lot, hoping the modified front end and gear diff will fit in my SV2

Mmmmm. Out in time for the oople? :thumbsup:

Interesting! I don't really like the body's cab, I really like the rest of it! :thumbsup: Though I have a TRF201 I'll keep using for a while and I quite like it, this is yet another car to choose from when the time comes to replace it! It is nice to see the 2WD competition heating up in the last few years! I predict this increasing diversity will keep me even further away from 4WDs than before :lol:

I know that this is designed for low grip tracks but I wondered how well it will go on the high grip tracks. mid motor is the favored choice these days i know but I had a quick go of my mates b4.1 worlds car on carpet and it was really good. Makes me wonder if there is any kind of future for rear motored cars here in the uk. Either way I like the look of that.

I like the look of it too
I still think rear motor can be competitive here in the UK. My x6 is great, but my b4 was a lot more exciting to drive |
Just seen this very car take 4th in the second leg of today's national A final! Looked brilliant on the wet muddy grass. Pretty bloody impressive.
