Default New Factory B4

Ok this might be a minor rant BUT!!! When did the Factory B4 become so s***!!! i just brought one an put it together, and im abit disapointed tbh. the difference between the normal kit and the factory kit doesnt seem to be much at all. the main difference is the threaded shocks thats almost all thats different that i can see. wot is the point in paying extra for the kit when it doesnt have much differnt. totally not worth it!!!

It has 'some' extra's which are better, mainly all the alloy bits which are nice, but get cancelled out from all that brittle and conductive carbon

but i thought the whole point about havein the more expensive kit was that it was better!! not cos it had more bling!! they could have cut the form inserts right, true i ant ever gunna use them anyways, but when ya puttin ya new kit ya try putting them on just so it looks good an new. there the wrong size they wont even fit on properly. and i would have thought that it would come wit factory thumb screws but it come wit the g** body clips to hold the batts in!! i have a b44 on order but it makes me wonder wot extras i will need to make the factory kit a decent car thats going to be useable

the FT b4 also comes with a ball raced steering rack as oposed to the team one that has funny gold things. also the servo saver spring is stronger.

mike theres plenty of things different on the ft kit
all parts are made from carbon instead of plastic
alloy front brace,threaded shock bodys, unobtainiun shock shafts,
ballraced steering,stiffer servo saver spring and blue bling nut,
ft front axles,carbon battery strap,and the foam inserts are supposed to be hugh and look to big to fill out the super soft rubber that comes with the car, all pro line inserts are like that
