In that photo of the car mid jump, what won the car or the Ikea chair?
Honestly though, I think that the car looks great. Good work lad. If I had a spare BJ4 lying around doing nothing I wouldnt hesitate in cutting it to bits and turning it into a mad ride like yours. Maximum respect.

hey just wondering what its handling tendancies are like? imve made a mid motor 2wd based on a cat 3k and fount that the weight shift is minimal under acceleration and braking and when theres the slightest bit of grip its a demon! only thing is when theres a loss of traction the back end becomes very loose. have you also found this and if so you found anythin to sort it? can pm me if you wanna keep trade secrets among us designers lol

BJ2WSE
Hi Thomas,
Finally got mine done and will post some picks this week. Run it at a club meeting on the 4th Jan on tarmac and was very impressed. Many people at the club had a good look over it and i now want to see how it goes on grass ( so just need some good weather). I could not get on with 2wd before but quite liked my outing with the BJ2 (wiggles)SE. I also did the B44 slipper mod and run it with trakpower lipo's. Version two now planned taking JC comments on board and turning the motor around.  Also Lars Jonsson's body shells are very tidy and nicely priced too.  Would rec this project to anyone with the parts just sitting around.. Regards, Paul.

if you're running lipo can't you just add lead where it's needed?
If I remember rightly the only reason for moving the motor was to correct left to right weight distribution. - Not sure if theirs any advantage with lipo when you have to add loads of weight anyway.

Hi, used lead for the weight situation, but when the powers on the rear end just spins out.
If i'm right JC was saying turn the motor around 180 and the rear gearbox upside down to calm this down? Wiggles..

Thomas - I see that you started with the BJ4WE 3-3 saddle pack configuration but quickly changed to the ACS4 4-2 set-up.
Is it because you run 5-cell only? Just wanting to understand if you found any difference in moving from 3-3 to 4-2. It's fantastic what you've done. Takes the hobby to a different level. have also seen the amazing stuff you did with your 1/18

1) wouldn't a b44 body fit? your body looks good though...
2) lipo saddle with no chassis cutouts 3) by far the nicest do it yourself car i have ever seen. very nice job, i'm not knocking it at all. It is sweeet!!

Hi , Yeh version two on the way with a custom chassis as i broke the one in the pics due to not putting the packers back under the top deck , so had sloppy steering and then the wall at the end of the stright.
The chassis is a BJ4WE cut about to suit (did not want to waste loads of time on something that did not work) Shame as the car works well and only broke due to running 2 & 4 wheel drive on the same day with no time for tinkering or fixing properly. Will update in a few weeks on the newer versions. The shell by the way looks so much better than a B44 as it's lower and makes the whole car look flatter. Paul.
