How convenient you posted this topic!


I race my B44.1 on an indoor carpet track.
We race on Ozite carpet using Slicks (usually Barcodes / Smoothies / Typos etc) and SXT Traction compound.


I was using a set of swapped BB (but sold them with my last 2wd buggy, so I will be returning to the SB body with BB spring conversion.) I am looking for a good setup for springs with the conversion. You know, before we had the Std. BB bodies!


My car was suffering from the same handling issues, where it would wash going into a corner. I don't run any drag brake and I too run the SP Rev. Pro 1.1 with a 6.5 motor.


On my BB setup, I think I was using Blue Front and either Green or White rear. our track setups change regularly and the jumps are usually moderate and most of the larger jumps can be back-sided and the amount of Flat landings in minimal.

So here are my questions for those folks still using the older 44.1/44.2
-With the change in SB volume vs BB volume, how much that changes the buggy?
-Changing to Gear Diffs F and R, and having the std Slipper, how will that change the handling?
-IS the Gear Diff necessary? or adapting the Triad Slipper?
-Would adding a Spool F or R make a difference? what about 1way?

I'm exploring some options as an alternate to upgrading to the 44.3 .
(If anything I may switch to Yokomo, since I have an MR and looking at the YZ2) but given I have the car, I want to maximize the performance for the Carpet.
