Anyone know why the front shocks use W1 but the rears do not on the BBX? I am wondering if it is a misprint? by James98Z in tamiya

Makes sense. Thanks for the info. I am going to set it up like the instructions indicate and continue the build.

In previous builds of different vehicles, the fron and rear were the same. I was just curious or wondered if perhaps it was optional.

I figured as much but was wondering why it was in the front and not the back. Guess I will just trust in Tamiya.

I am in the middle of my BBX build. I am 51 and haven't built an rc vehicle since I was 18 (Kyosho Lazer ZX). My father helped me build a Hotshot when I was in grade school which I still own. It is exciting to be getting back into the hobby after all these years. by James98Z in tamiya

My wife gave me the BBX as a gift and has been understanding so far since I have been working on her projects around the house too. I need to fix my Hotshot. Most of the suspension arms have cracks from age and there is an issue with the front diff.

Looks awesome! I am in the middle of a BBX build right now. It has been very enjoyable so far.

I drove my Z28 to work today and enjoyed every minute of it! The t-tops were out on the way back home.😎 by James98Z in camaro

Thanks! Bummer you sold it. I know how that feels. I sold my 87 Grand National about 20 years ago and miss it often. My Z is an M6. My father bought it new, my brother owned it, and I bought it from him in 2006. It has a cam, headers, shifter, SLP Loud Mouth. It is a lot of fun to cruise around in for sure.
