Remarks – 2wd 17.5 Buggy top qualifier Shane Borden is running an interesting Team Associated B5M Lite which features an MIP 3 gear transmission as well as some other optional parts. The new tranny moves the motor 3mm closer to the centre line and due to it being machined from aluminium it prevents flex in this area as well as adding extra weight to the rear of the car. Starting with softer oil in the rear of the car when he arrived at the Hobbyplex he returned to his base setup and changed to a softer front spring. Shane also used the new Stabilizer rear wing from JConcepts which gives more rear grip which he combined with a front wing which he said helped tame the steering for perfect balance.
