MR4-BX vs MR4-BX worlds

[chokoboy]

I have been offered a yok mr4-bxf for almost nothing.
What is the main difference in MR4-BX and the worlds version? And is MR4-BXF the standard or the worlds?

Here's a couple of pics of the car im offered please tell me if this is the standard or the worlds kit!

Thanks for the help!

What you have is the Factory car, which shared a lot with the original version and had the following upgrades:

-aluminum front pin brace (btw, it looks like your car is missing the front bumper)
-some versions came with a front oneway instead of the differential
-longer rear shock shafts
-front and rear spring sets
-harder driveshafts (shiny)
-thicker, reshaped rear top deck (probably for belt clearance)
-BJ4WE-style body (looks like it provides more space for brushless esc's)

The Worlds car switched to a one-piece chassis and the aforementioned one-piece topdeck, rear shocks mounted behind the arms, new steering parts, shock towers, bulkheads, and Tamiya 501X-style camber link mounts, which it appears were attempted on the front of the car in the pics. You may even be able to still find the Worlds conversion kit...my Factory handles well enough that I didn't feel it was necessary.

It's still a fast, great-handling car, at least for U.S. tracks, and only needs adhesive-backed diff covers, little pieces of foam to protect the thrust bearings, and a little extra attention to the diff pulleys between rounds to make sure there's no dirt lodged in the teeth to make it reliable. It's such a shame Yokomo stopped development on such a quality machine....

If you can get it for nothing, grab it! Or send it to me...
