ones bog standard, ones running tc3 front shocks and mardave fronts on the rear and is very good on carpet-both with tamiya sport tuned motors.
mines running fybrelite shock towers-front cut lower, zxr shocks and b4 springs and an easyrun 9t brushless without any probs yet! all 3 run on kamtec kse 34 stock car foam tyres.
i'm interested in the b3/b4 gearbox mod-anybody got any close up pics and can i still use mardave wishbones? also like the look of the front steering linkage
mardave spares are so cheap and chris is a top bloke when it comes to advice and gettin spares
Glad to hear that you & your sons are getting on well with your Cobras... good to hear people are still racing & enjoying these buggies.

By the way there's a pictures of Adey's B3 gearbox conversion on page 2 of this very topic. I also converted my Cobra (many years ago) to run a Losi XX gearbox (theres a link to some pictures on page 2 aswell)
