Default b44 advise

hey, just woundering if anyone could share any tips and advise me what i should buy for the b44 to improve the performance ect.

so far its standard set up, 40wt front/ 30wt back shock oil on standard springs. rudebits brass lipo holder and battery braces. silver rear anti roll bar. and possible a one-way diff. i herd that people are relocating the rear shocks to the rear of the wishbone to improve the handling and just woundering how you do it ?. also what else should i require before entering the regionals cheers

Hi mate fr shocks 40wt 2 piston and 1 limiter silver springs, rr 30wt 1 piston 1 limiter green springs. Try running a fr diff which needs to be slightly tighter than the rear. Black anti roll bar on the rr. Try running with the carbon battery bars at some point too. Last week, indoors, i ran with the AE carbon tray and no added weight and the car was really good.

HTH.

I ran it with no added weight at all, it was still over the minimum weight running LRP lipo's. I'll probably add 100G when i go outdoors again or i think i'm gonna ask Rude Tony to make me a split brass lipo tray so it'll be easier to take out and swap for the carbon one. I'm not bothering with the straps i don't think they will be neccessary for me. From what you've said i think you're ready to hit the track.

I've taken the one way out as i find the car drives better with the diff in and has better brakes but do 1 run with the diff then stick the one way in and see how it feels to you. Don't make loads of changes at once do them one at a time to see the difference above all don't get lost in the set up. Your current set up is good so you might only need minor changes if any at all.
