You are 100% correct! You can NEVER have too many tires! I have a CRATE of tires! You could probably feel the spur gear mount and spur gear. Lowering rotating mass can make a big difference!
This was cool to look back on. I have 10 different style/sets of tires. Tires really are THE number one adjustment. I watched this series when I first got into the hobby, right as the pandemic was kicking off. Now, seeing it again knowing what I know, these tips and parts are very useful! 👍
Great series! Especially for the 'newbies'.... Be very interesting to let a 'pro' have this buggy for a couple of hours at the track and get their input??!!! lol Nice job.
Ohhh, so THAT's why the RPM camber gauges are out of stock, lol. Eh, I had one in my old tool box, which went missing after I took inventory of what I have earlier this year (almost 20 years out of the hobby!). What a crazy Global situation. Anyway, it's been fun seeing the trials and tribulations. You never learn anything if you don't try and test - the important thing is to keep the changes mininal (to better keep track), jot down notes on what it did, and build up your "Engineer's notebook". This was a good and fun series to watch! 😁
Last????? lol 😂. Hi Brett, yet another awesome video, really great tips and very informative with great ideas. I’d still love to see you race the wee buggy, i think that would be awesome 😎.
The buggy was purchased brand new, the electronics were used, and the upgrades were purchased over a period of 6 months. So the upfront costs were much less doing it this way, which is ideal for a beginner started out in R/C racing. -Brett
@@AMain_Hobbies true unless the bigginer doesn't have used electronics then its 1000 dollar buggy time haha. All in all 6 months or not u will sink big money into it. I have a sc6 I race and have sunk some money into it haha
Yo Brett, thanks for the speed test! But compared to my Schumacher Cougar kc with the Alu-Chassis, the Asso b6. 2 is really heavy... My Schumacher weights ~1520 grams and is 3 years old!
@@AMain_Hobbies That's somehow weird, isn't it? I didn't do any upgrades to my Buggy expect for a aluminum diff (8g heavier than stock) and my Buggy is still lighter than a brand spanking new Buggy..
@@shadow7037932 Well, to be honest, I didn't know that. 😂 I bought the Buggy only because 1. I wanted to try stock racing And 2. Because it was on a 50% discount, lowering the price from 400 to 200 bucks... LoL I just recognized that you shave almost 100g weight with the carbon chassis and the gear eliminator kit... That means my Buggy would be at about 1420g,way to light for most classes.
@@RC-ty5ym carbon chassis is 80g saving about min weight is 1499g or something. Schumacher kd with alum front casters ti front axles hingpins is 1524g or something. The laydown is a massive improvement over KC/kd for high-med traction. Kd with all alum parts is 1570g with front wing and ultra light weight body.
Can you guys make one of these series for the TLR 22 5.0 SR roller for dirt tracks? Would be a great alternative with not only a different surface type but also a different brand! Getting back to RC’s after a 25+ year break and man a lot has changed.
Good tip. We ended up only using the stock sway bars included with the car. Team Associated offers thinner and thicker bars, but we didn't experiment with changing it. -Brett
I used to love my b6 but now that I’ve learned to drive I just notice I can’t ever get enough rear traction unless it’s on throttle while cornering. Forward traction just doesn’t exist
Yes, we do ship to most addresses in India, as long as the shipping service supports the address. We cannot ship some items Internationally because of laws, like Nitro Fuel, LiPo batteries, and a few other hazardous products. Hope that helps! -Brett

Don"t like those big gaps in the middle of the jumps, my track has them and its hard for new guys to get around and if anything goes wrong they really tear up a car I guess thats part of the learning process if it doesn't turn them away,sells lots of parts I bet.
Learn how to time jumps. If you can't time jumps you will always struggle should know your car speed compared to trigger and where your trigger should be able for the jump.
@@AMain_Hobbies 99% of the time my cars just sit on a shelf because I have to drive so far to find a proper racing surface. I have a dirt track half hour away but no car to drive on that surface. Even 1/8 scale cars just spin out most of the time
If i was racing i would want in kit. Tyres. Suspension. Several shocks sets. Each with different oil weights Diff oil is more a keep track records of each race .stats etc. And change maybe prior to race day.. .. Shock springs.. multiple types.. Even batteries. The c rating if its not set as one number. Then brands which could be slightly different. Under the c rating.. e.g. 45c but more like 25c. . .

as a new driver and having a used 6.2 arriving today this was invaluable and very helpful.
Soooo jealous of anyone who had a beautiful carpet track near them! I’d slap someone for a beautiful track like that in Michigan near me.
Great series! Especially for the 'newbies'....

Nice job.
Great series. Went out & bought the b6.2 myself to compete. Gonna try the mamba x esc in mod class with a 13.5 motor of some sort.
Reducing Rotating mass is huge
It’s all about the driver and set-up...... these race chassis peaked years ago....practice, practice, practice😎
There is still a lot of development going on making cars easier to drive or a bit faster.

Went and checked out the new carpet tonight, wow what a difference!
Great series for some noobs getting into racing. Thanks so much brah. Do anothern
Man....i'd love to see a side by side comparison of this and a rtr race vehicle
Yeah the Stampede 4x4 vxl v.s the new Hoss 4x4 vxl
There isnt a rtr race vehicle
Diego Olivera rtr - ready time race
@@R53.charlie *ready to run
We have plans of comparing this race buggy to a rtr converted into a race buggy, if it ever comes in stock. We'll see.
-Brett
Great series keep them coming u are really helping people
Most tracks are dirt. I learned a lot from this series. Could you do the same series on b6.2d??
I loved this series
Thanks for the waffle, much appreciated. Keep up the good work!
Really enjoyed that series! Can you do one about improving driving skills? Would appreciate it. :-)
Amazing video bro loved it that buggy looks epic
I just built my b6.4..😂 I think the first thing to change is the battery holder besides the alum servo horn..
It's a dynamite heat Gun with a laser light like i said before in your battery video a few minutes ago
So 200 on top of the 340 for the kit. 540 minus motor esc servo radio. So there is roughly 8 to 1000 bucks in that 2wd buggy?
Yes
Yup. It cost to have fun

Another gem sir. Your next mission, should you choose to accept it, build and trick the new Kyosho MP10e kit.

Schumacher has generally had pretty light weight chassis over the years. It's something they are pretty well known for.

What do I do if I want to race these but there are no tracks near me..?

Could you guys do a Traxxas slash 2wd brushless?? I have one and I would love to see it!!
Sell it buy something deacnt. They are cheap and crap. Plus Traxxas sues everyone for no reason.

Does your site ship the products in India ?
Yes, we do ship to most addresses in India, as long as the shipping service supports the address. We cannot ship some items Internationally because of laws, like Nitro Fuel, LiPo batteries, and a few other hazardous products. Hope that helps!

I wish they would build the best possible nitro race buggy they could vs the Kyosho rtr they built last year
Big $$$
-Brett
Why? A race kit with a $500+ motor will smoke the rtr easily. A nitro buggy can get to 1600+ easy.
NICE 🤙🤙🤙🤙
