Be Quick About it Geo. I"m interested in seeing what it looks and handles like. Before I tear down my legends car.

I actually built it to run with some of the older guys, like Rippin and such during the week. There was nothing better to do with the car at the time. I wanted to build a sprint out of it but noone had a setup for it till now. So Now that I have the car setup as a legeds I wan't to see how it is before I tear it apart again. The one thing that concerns me is if it will be able to convert to foams with the stock suspension. The picture shows stock B4 wheels.

JR, yes we have ran foams on the nitro car and it works out fine. We haven't put foams on electric car yet but it has same parts so I don't see any difference. If you go to website in the gallery you will see a white car with white wheels it is a pic of a nitro car on foams.

Well it's not a dwarf body, but it is the old style mod body from the 50's. Somehow I think that it's not too hard to confuse you. I think even Solly would agree.

I see your pics now, they didn't come up before. Are you using the stock shocks or did you modify them to prevent bottoming with foams?

I ran my nitro TMR last night for the first time and it was alot fun. I am soo hooked now lol. I had said I never really wanted an AE or an Nitro car, but I did both and it was fun. Hell froze over somewhere lol. Bill had his electric just about done. He dyed the cage blue and it was looking good.

JR, no we used stock shocks. We changed springs and oil that's it for foams.

Twisted, I have no plains for a EDM as of now. But I don't see why you couldn't take a kit and make it work just fine as a EDM.

In 3 race nights it has 3 A-mains, 2 Wins, 1-3rd and a track record! Checkered Flag Raceway in KC is an outdoor track that gets a little loose which gives the TMR an advantage over the CW cars with buggy tires. The stability of the B4 gives you the ability to drive the car harder and deeper into the corners which allows you to carry more corner speed. We run 19 Turn Sprints, but I'm going to drop in a 10Turn in practice this week just to see what it can do!!! Hope that next year the class will be Open so that I can run the new Brushless and never cut another com again.
Raymond if you read this I never received any TMR decals with the kit because you were out. It would sure look better in the Winner's Circle with some TMR decals.

Thanks,

I would really like to see some pics of the car with and without body, and chassis shots if possible. Maybe on this thread or in readers rides. I have a b4 and was going to convert myself, but this looks a little less painfull.

thanks,Randy

Painless it is. Unbolt your B4 and bolt it to your new TMR Blocks. Takes very little time and is one fast ride. Fast, priced right, built VERY well, parts on every shop wall, Can't go wrong with TMR!!
