Ok, I found part numbers for all the springs I need. Word to the wise... Associated wants $1.50 for each pair, Tower wants $2.39 for a pair. Hmmmm....

Nope I haven't ordered yet. BUT, I think I may have chosen. However, if there's something you can say to sway my decision... please do! http://www.rccaraction.com/ubb/smile.gif

Well, hehe, thanks! I've looked it all over a hundred times. Both are fine cars. Both have about the same tranny, both the suspensions are nice. If AE didn't have the FT out, It'd be a no brainer. Getting a nice car WITH all graphite and titanium... oh boy that makes me think! I've won races with both the AE and the Losi. The track record for the B3 is impressive, as is the XXX. So.... once again... I'm at a standstill. If I were to flip a coin right now, with Heads being the B3 and tails being the XXX... it'd be... XXX. Lets go best 2 for 3. XXX, XXX, and B3. hehehe, we'll see what happens before the mastercard comes out.

Oh I'm quite sure if I got either I'd be happy with them. The only thing about the XXX I don't like is the cheapy plastic. My last Losi car had a problem with pivot blocks. Bad news to have the front come loose in an A main! http://www.rccaraction.com/ubb/smile.gif

The only thing I don't like about the B3 is the castor pin/ball combo.

I'm glad you like (love) your B3, wish I could drive it!! http://www.rccaraction.com/ubb/smile.gif
