Default Jconcepts - CML - AE ???

I've heard a few rumours regarding the three companys the thread speicifes. One was CML are taking over the distribution of JC, another was AE are taking over JC, and then will be imported by CML.

This was heard a few weeks ago, but this weekend gone, mr barton was back running a bj4, and now i notice cree has gone back to it also.. Can any one shed any light on to the situation? I'd love to know, as currently im struggling for parts in the UK!!

Can any of the CML team let us have an insight on the matter, or any one else for a matter of fact !

AE would rather me to run the BJ4 and the CML Yok team was too big and going to down size anyway. Thats why you have had some people doing some small changes. Also Craig Drescher has entered the off road nat's this year so I am doing lots of running with the car so he has a good base setup from the start.

So is there a connection then? AE - CML - JC.


Oh I see what you mean now, AE prefer their 2wd racers to run 4wd almost AE cars, rather than Yoke ones

front?
I know lowe has been running the centre a bit recently, and at bury metro it was surely a bit more consistent.. but still I am quicker (if I keep it together) with the front oneway.

I tried the centre one way.. Wasnt much of a fan of it.. but it was indoors. I'll be giving all 3 a good testing in the future.. for tiverton i think the centre one way will be getting a run for sure.

But i'm really digging the front one way for this car.. i normally dislike them.

I always run the center one way but it is really horses for courses with the one way diff. Some tracks love it and some really hate it. If the ground is uneven or unpredictable then the one way diff is hard to hang on to but if it’s a predictable surface like Kiddy then it should be good. Saying that I ran the normal diff in the front of the car at kiddy but that’s only because I was messing with tyres all day. Yardy ran a (BJ4) one way diff in his car all day and was fastest.

Would Yokomo be happy that there importer (CML) is also importing a direct competitors car as well ?.

I guess there is a lot more to this which we are not hearing about.
