Everyone likes their car handling differently. It's all personal preference.

Car with shorty is underweight around 30 grams. Found it too myself in scrutineering in Greek Nats.
I think the car has a lot of weight up front by itself (to be precise it has more weight distributed forward than other cars). It was slightly nosediving on me without any weight added. I don't think adding weight helps heal any issue with steering as far i have tested the BMax.

1.5 mm brass plates just fit without changes, for thicker plates or batteries you can lift the battery brace by adding spacers.

4400mah shorty pack in RM config is 50g underweight, even with 15g weight up front bulkhead, but it is perfectly legal with a 6000 stick pack

Practiced yesterday on dirt track, in RM configuration. The track was loose and bumpy but the BMAX2 was really planted.
The only problem i had was that dirt entered the diff case... It seems that the entry point was the joint of the two halves on the slope that goes from the wing mount to the rear bracket mount. I think it's a mold issue that leaves a small gap. Probably some grease would stop dirt from entering. It can be an issue because dust found it's way into the diff (it was ruined after 6-7 packs).

For those of you who wondered if the old B-Max2 body fits the MR: Yes it does; not a perfect fit but it fits.

Or you could get a few rolls of bike frame tape and do your own for that price

Probably that's about it. Maybe the gear-diff included by default and ofcourse instead of the ball diff.

Maybe 12 mm hexes in the rear, the new 4WD also has them.
