Do this for four weeks then. -And take your stuff with you so others can have a look at what you already have.

What tyres will it need for Batley indoors?

As for the shocks - You got a set of cheap B4 shocks but they don't work right? Sounds like the shaft is bent if it doesn't move. Well new shafts are cheaper than whole new shocks, indeed the most expensive part of those B4 shocks are the bodies themselves and I doubt they are wrecked. But getting shocks right is an art and not something you can describe over the net. Get down to a club meet and they'll get it sorted. Don't bother going to race, just go for the help.

si i got a cheap b4 of ebay need new shocks there not b4 shock cheap 6 p ound shocks and dont work and need a couple of bit and rear plate and wing

Here is the only advise you should listen too. I'm sure it's been said before, but here goes:

Sell every truck and truggy you own except 1. Use this for bashing and nothing else.
Sell everything you own that goes with these trucks and truggy's.
If you now own a B4, sell the Madrat and eveything that goes with it.
Do nothing with this "cheap" B4. It sounds like a nail. Keep it for spares.
Wait for Si cole to build you a decent B4 (he sounds like he's looking after you)

BUY NOTHING ELSE UNTIL YOU'VE BEEN TO THE TRACK.

James W, Mark D and the others there will then be able to steer you in the right direction if anything else needs buying.

This is the only advise you will need this year regards racing and bashing.

I would listen to Col; that was some stellar advice there.

Tyres for Batley indoors would be Schumacher yellow mini pins or mini spikes.
