I really like this Tamiya/Kyosho hybrid. I like how the motor is positioned forward.

In terms of parts, are you using the stock Tamiy 511 chassis, rear end and spur gear adaptor/mount? Then you are bolding a Kyosho RB5 front end onto the chassis?

I run in the USA and we generally race on packed clay tracks. How does motor position forward and back affect traction?

Trying to see if there are any other 4wd platforms that could be a good starting base to build a custom 2wd buggy out of.

I was looking at the Associated B44 with a B4 front end but had some concerns with torque steer due to the driveshaft/motor orientation and that the motor may be too far forward.

Suggestions? Comments?
