Is a 4300kv motor too powerful for Apex 2 rally car?

I have a spare motor it’s 4300kv. I plan to use it with a 2s lipo. Is this too powerful? I’m worried about destroying the car with a too powerful motor.

Pro2 SC10 upgrade parts

I just ordered a Pro2 SC10 as my first larg-er scale RC and can't wait to get it! WhileI'm waiting I started browsing what parts both replacement and upgrade are available for those trucks and got a little lost.

What I've gathered so far is that most DR10 parts work, some Pro4 parts work and there are upgrade parts both third party and Factory Team for the Pro2

I've figured that most standard Short Course truck stuff works too, like servos, wheels/tires, bodies etc.

Does anything from the race oriented RC10SC6.2 fit on this thing? It looks like something from the parts from the front might fit but the rear is way different being a mid-motor setup.

I have no real intentions to race it, maybe at an amateur level at some point, just curious about part availability and whether other model parts fit this truck too.

Thanks in advance!

Bearings

I have a huge assortment of Boca ceramic bearings for Team associated cars. I have no problem with factory bearings, but in a drift car would the ceramic bearings be advantageous?

Just ordered a Rc8B4e from amainhobbies when it dropped under $400 after coupon. Good deal?

This will be my first build - any resources or tips on build suggestions?

How long will TA support the B6?

Looking at picking up a NIB 6.4, but with the release of the B7 am concerned about parts availability for the next couple years.

Need help. Bought a used SC10 Pro4. New to hobby.

Hey everyone I'm new to the hobby and picked up a sc10 pro4 yesterday used. I wanted to know if it is normal for the power delivery to be very slow off the start? I am running it on 2S, when I give it throttle in forward or reverse it takes like a whole second for the car to move, and it can barely get enough power to get through grass from a stop. My other question is if it is normal for the turn radius to be very wide? I have it at the highest steering setting at it just seems to make really huge turns. The last question at the moment I have is if there is an issue with my servo or something because if I drive in reverse the front wheel sometimes shift left and right. The car also sounds kinda... crunchy.. did I waste my money? Got it for $160 with 1 battery and extra set of tires.

Monster GT RTR - Tire alternative

Hi all, need to replace at least one of my tires and I'm having a real difficult time trying to find tires even remotely close to the 6 3/4" x 3.5" tires. I have rims just need tires. Any suggestions? I've searched a bunch with vendors and Amazon etc and don't see anything close. If someone has used another tire size please let me know what works for you. Thanks

Reflex 14b first build?

Would a reflex 14b be a good first build? I found one for 150 everything included in my area, I’m looking for something I can upgrade slowly, I’m looking to do some performance and customization. I’d like a realistic body, is that possible with one of these buggies?

Pro4 SC10 Traction Roll

I own both a Pro2 SC10 and a Pro4 SC10. The 2WD handles like a dream with minimal adjustments. My 4WD is a different story. My 4WD flips on every high speed corner that my 2WD can enter at full speed (running 2S in both). So far I have added more camber, moved the shocks outward on the front arms, and stiffened springs in the front. These adjustments have not helped the traction roll. I’m going off intuition so I could be moving backwards. I have looked online for remedies, but they’re all conflicting. Some say lower ride height, some say make the springs as stiff as possible. I’m sure you guys have some ideas and any would be appreciated. I don’t get to test as much as I’d like as the closest track is one hour away, so I’d like to have some potential solutions in mind for the next time I go. I’m running an assortment of tires for SCT. ProLine Gladiators, Calibers, Blockades, Holeshots, and also some JConcepts Goosebumps. My local short course track is pretty loamy but does hold moisture well. TIA

Model of T6.4 front bumper (91685)

I recently completed my T6.4 team associated car, and so far I love it. However, I do not like the fact that there is virtually no front bumper. I have a 3d printer and have previously made models for my B6.4 which have worked pretty well, so I was wondering if anybody had the model for the T6.4's front bumper that I could expand on. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Alternative for vintage Monster GT part

Reference: https://www.associatedelectrics.com/teamassociated/parts/details/25077-ASC25077-air_cleaner/

Looking to replace my air filter, does anyone know of a modern and available alternative to the air filter element or an assembly that could be used on the stock motor?
