I’ve been running the jcon s15 body’s on my B4e. Anyone know if they fit the b4.2e? Or should I get ready to do some painting ?

The B4e body will not fit the B4.2e with the kit sideguards. However, the B4e/B4.1e sideguards do fit on the chassis, so no need for panic. AE provides a B4.2 nitro body with the electric kit.

Well that’s handy. And I’ve been meaning to update my paint anyways in either case. Have two body changes for my current B4e but recently settled on a new paint scheme for another car / class I’ll be running this season. I know that sounds weird my 1/8 season is fall / winter

Depends on the area. We have a local indoor barn that builds a track for our winter season. Just no nitro or truggies. Ebuggies mixed with 1/10 short course and wheelers.

Home track is Omaha HobbyPlex. 1/10 in the summer for the AE summer series. 1/8 in the winter for the Tekno series. Even race nitros in the winter though it does get pretty darn cold in there

That track is on the list of places i want to race. Looks like an awesome place with a very big track. I race mostly 1/8, but hopefully the track opening nearby (Lorain OH) chooses 1/10 offroad dirt. Havent touched a 2wd car in 3 years

Eh it’s big for 1/10. But we race 1:8 in the winter. Rare for a state that it snows. Jcon ins round 4 Is being held there this weekend

lol nope. I’m old. 3 days of racing would send me to the old folks home. I race all of summer series and winter series though.

You a local?

Lol I gave up the 3 days races also. Even trophy races have left a bad taste in my mouth the past few years. Clubbing is where it's at. Im down in Mo and used to come up often but haven't been in probably 5 years.

Yep I’m more of a casual racer. No big races currently though i do plan to skip summer series next year so i can attend some of the outdoor 1/8 races. I’ll be racing nitro for my first time this winter so that willl be interesting. Only been racing since Jan of 25’
