I don't think that richard lowe runs with much weight in the car griff. I'm sure he's a beleiver in running light chassis. I maybe wrong tho

I'll get my RHR setup posted in the setups section soon, I've actually started running a fair bit of weight in the car recently as an experiment - still not sure just yet

Usually I run the Trishbits front bulkhead (~40g) + brace (~7g) and antisquat/toe block (~28g) everywhere. At RHR I also had a Rudebits 72g under servo weight + 66g lipo weight.

As Chris has mentioned the carbon rear arms are a must on the B4.1, the new plastic is a bit too floppy there IMO. I've tried both back to back, the carbon arms just make everything better in general - more grip, more consistent and much better through bumps

Depends on surface to be honest. My B4.1 is dialed on grass.

I'd love to see a TOP driver run two cars back to back, one rear and the other mid motor and compare the times

Get yourself some weights in there. AE ballast weight for the rear and rudebits under lipo and under servo weight
Rich Lowe put his in the 'A' at rhr, so see if he has his setup somewhere too look at too.

Put Factory team Carbon rear wishbones on it, the kit ones are wibbly-wobbly.

Glue the servo saver, or put on a fixed alloy steering set. I opted for the latter after breaking glued servo savers.
