I use both, would say the bx feels "softer", with my setup anyway, but the Bmax is always quicker!

well it all realy depend because i used to run a bx and also now run a bmax

the only real differences i have noticed is that the steering on the bmax is alot more smoother and calmer

i have tryed associated shocks upon my bmax and they seem to work fine even the bodys are slihghtly longer the assaciated shocks work fine they are the only major change i have done to the car
in terms of handling

the suspension works alot better

there are no random moments where it just wants to roll

smoother in and out of corners





HAPPY CHRISTMAS

Cheers , im not intending on giving up on the bx , just fancy trying the bmax as i want to see how i go with it .
It takes a little modification to run the bx to how you want it . The bmax seems to be good straight out of the box.

Default Simply faster

I was used to race with a BX since 2 season and i bought the B-Max just before the last national. I never qualify so high ans so simply at the third place.

Do not hesitate!!
