On my experience so far with my B44, well I didn't like it much at the start, then kinda clicked with it, had a 3rd and a 2nd in our regionals so far, so was really warmimg to it, but then today it tore the end off of a front drive shaft, so I swapped back to my Yok BX, and won the meeting I suppose you know you've got enough power when you rip the drive shaft apart

I might have to start using threadlock, which I Don't really want to do. a lot of people looking at the car have commented about how little thread there is sticking out to get the nut on. broken driveshaft? that's mental! |

E final?? I have never made the E-final, because we only have A and B
mains at Albion IL. We might have a C-main this year depending on how many people show up. I'll be cracking on mod 4-wheel and mod-truck this year when I combine both together and run 2 classes. I used to break A-arms all the time until I installed RPM ball-cups then I didnt break anymore, so that does help. And many people have had issues of the rear CVA pin coming out. If you cut a slot in the cva pin then thread lock the set-screws, you shouldnt have any more problems. I have not did maintence on my B44 diffs either, someone told me I shouldnt have to.

2nd run of my b44 on sunday at swindon made the A finla and broke nothing apart from one plastic ball cup, I could do with some set ups for astro tracks

some of the jumps at the swindon track are pretty full on - get yourself some RPM ballcups

I ran my B44 for the first time last weekend at our Nationals in Margate, South Africa, the car is awesome, qualified 7th in the A-main, the car feels better than my D4, but thats my opinion.
Of the 10 cars in the A-main, 8 were B44's......must mean something!!!! I only broke a ball cup during practice, great reliability.

I took the effort last night to make a wing
Made this myself. You know that durable plastic they use on VHS cases?
Well I cut this out and bent it to shape of a high downforce wing. It shouldnt break like those cheap lexan wings do. I painted 3 colors on it as well. I'm just sick of breaking lexan wings. So I made my own.
