Team Associated B74.1 on the Track 

Hello my friends 👋🏻 As coincidence would have it, I’m actually back at that track today. So I’m out for the full day playing with toy cars 😅😅😅 I’ll jump into the comments on Friday and catch up with you all 🤓👊🏻

Great stuff that thing lands nicely 👍

That buggy looked really good, despite that track being way too short for it to really stretch it's legs! These sort of buggies are totally different from most Tamiya's, they are thoroughbred racers whereas most Tamiya buggies racing is an afterthought. Great video anyway, keep it up mate👍👍

Looked like that was great fun Glenn, the B74 was clearly in its element! 😎👍

Im not usually a fan of this shell type but i am warming to it. It does look like an absolute blast to drive though. Also, love to see more of these track day videos. Brilliant fun!!😃👍

Gooooo Glenn 😇, the concentration 😂😂😂 Great vid and awesome buggy 🤩🤩🤩🤩

Cool runnings and you a bought an old 6.2 well I have the 4.2 lol

I literally cheered when you landed the big jump for the first time!!! 😀

Great driving there Glenn, the B74.1D is set up for dirt tracks but the B74.1 is set up for carpet/Hi bite tracks indoors tracks, both are essentially the same vehicle only with different set ups

Good on Peter for letting you drive his car after seeing you on that big jump with yours 😄 Can’t really deny the superiority of the modern cars - in 20 years they’ll be classic and maybe then I’ll pick one up 😁

Generals!

G'day Glenn yeah that associated goes quick around the track only because old mate had car set up dialled for that track. Some of your flash Tamiya TRF's would eat associated for breakfast set up correctly. Great video mate 👍

Love the B74, cracking buggy and on my list. Had a b44.1 which was epic!

I heard a couple sub 20 second laps. Not bad Glenn!! Not bad at all!!

Looks like you had a lot of fun! The B74.1 is the latest 4wd from Team Associated, so that's the newest and greatest. I have most of the latest 4wd buggies from the race brands, and people gave me a lot of $hit when I said my Top Force Evo re-re just doesn't compare to a modern buggy, but there really is a huge difference!

Good one mate, that car is a beast! Handles that jump nicely too. 👌👍

Hi Glenn, Great vid as always! Peter's car looked like a real handful to be honest?! No rear grip, -immediate power-off oversteer... pretty small, point and squirt track though, have to get all the deceleration done on the straight then power through the corner ...? - 'ark at me ;) Good work as always Glenn, -think you'll enjoy a 2wd, on good tyres, you can bias grip really easily with battery position :)

Looked nice and smooth

Great video Glenn, Peters a top man for letting us see the car. I really want one myself. This may of just convinced me.👍🏻👍🏻

Good definitely tell you we’re getting quicker averaging 18 to 20 sec laps, where as your other cars were mid 25’s brilliant track day 👍

Great video and car....I have the B74.1D and the B6.3D. In terms of the 4wd, the Team Associated is amazing and probably my ultimate buggy. Love my 2wd B6.3D but my 2wd Yokomo YZ2CAL3.1D is out of this world and the build was just sublime, the quality is lovely nothing comes close aside from Xray. I have a Sworkz S12-2D to build and something tells me I'm going to enjoy it as the kit looks out of this world! The bit and expensive bit for me is getting and putting the best electronics in each that's possible! I think my just B74.1D, car and electronics cost me close to £1000.......and that's not including the radio gear!

Great video Glenn 👍, that looks like a pretty tight track! You drove bloody well in my humble opinion.

Great video Glenn. That car handled so well and I saw that you were getting more confident as time went on. ❤️

Your clearing that jump nicely now Glen and landing on the down ramp too. Just a little smoother on the throttle and youll be all good. Stop the throttle blipping and smooth your driving out a little and times will improve massively. Such a big different compared to your earlier track visits. Good to see!

You can definitely tell the difference with a race bread buggy. A little shame it wasn’t more dialled in to the track. It looked loose on the rear end , I’m sure some of that was tyres as well. Anyway good stuff and look forward to more track action :)

Well Glenn this video blew my mind 🤯,there's some things my mind can't handle,for one the car looked more tricky to handle than the others I've seen u drive at this track, also it didn't look mega quicker than your other cars but somehow it was making that difficult jump look so easy🤔.I does seem like fantastic car, I've been looking at them myself recently but the only thing that puts me off is that modern body shape,I hate the driver cab being so far forward,if I got one I would do my best to fit some sort of recognisable tamiya body on it. Cracking video as usual buddy 👊🇬🇧 ps sorry that was a long comment 😂

Haha, guaranteed you will have both a B6 and a B74. I started racing again a few years back and am completely hooked. It’s just incredible how good modern race buggies are. Love the new channel, I believe it will do great.

Great to see your enthusiasm for learning to race. These new buggies are incredible, keep up the practice (I’m doing the same when I can) 😀

Very nice car👍 but man! They need to take that section that sticks out In front of the drivers stand out and make a straight out of it. Because that's to big of a jump with to short of a landing then that quick of a turn immediately after is no good! If that was a straight that would be alot smoother track. And they still have enough corners for it to still be a technical track. I bet that spot been the focal point of a lot of crashes during an actual race. But cool video either way. I would definitely talk to the drivers to then talk to the track owners. It would be a way better track and to have that big of a jump right in front of the driver stand would be badass 👍

Oh wow, at around 2:40 that jump and following corners were beautiful Glenn! and again around 6:20, and 7:30 !! Very pleasing to watch!! Well Done mate!! It shows that if you get the jumps right, the car will "flow" through the following corners!? What's obviousely mega difficult is getting all the little steps of the track fitted together for a semaless lap!! Very very hard!! LOL. Ace video thanks Glenn!! I can see this channel going far with time! Thanks as always Glenn! All your hard work is very much appreciated my friend!! Wes, Liverpool UK.

Love the track 😊👍

That associated turns on the spot😱 definitely a big difference between setups, so we will be seeing an associated B74.? Soon then lol. I think my Vkar v4.b is a rip off of that associated as looks very similar layout and shell🤔🤔😱. Have fun racing and looking forward to more racing footage 👍👍

Once you run a proper built race buggy it's hard to go back :)

I don’t know why that guy was running dirt tyres on a carpet track. Get yourself some mini pins and you will be able to drive that track with your eyes shut. Looks like you had fun though!

It's good to see your confidence in driving is getting better Glenn. Are you still gonna try to make the TRF201 better? Put a 15t brushed motor in it and play with the gearing. I have a 15t brushed motor in my Kyosho RB 6.6 and it is a beast with it.

Night and day difference on the big jump compared to the older cars you ran. I think with a bit more acceleration the older cars might have managed the jump slightly better than they did but the B74.1 just looked far better balanced in the air too. Would be interesting to see how much is down to the acceleration though.

This is true, your drive wasn't good at all. I'm surprised there was any car left to look at. But I do appreciate the video.

what is that green and yellow semi truck behind you?

......T4 FT ..🥰...or SC10....B4.....

Why didn’t you bring the Durga Glen?

Nice car no doubt. I still drive my '89 vintage goldpan rc10 and it still puts most modern cars to shame regarding handling and suspension performance. Of course it's no longer relavant technically but there's just nothing like it. Still the best rc car I've ever driven. The new associated stuff looks great too, from a tech standpoint BUT, ugh! Those bodies! They are so unfathomably aweful! Modern buggy bodies are just the most terrible looking thing ever! They look like cartoon characters. As a scale body modeler and paint enthusiast, you must cringe at these modern bodies. That would have to go. No scale appeal at all. Take that car and put one of your kickass scale custom painted buggy bodies on it and you're set. Cheers.

I gotta be honest, that's a really ugly track. It's way too tight. The owner of the ae looked to have the wrong tyres in the rear or not enough toe in. It rotated way too much on corner exit. If you can try a larger outdoor track or a larger carpet track. Carpet can be tricky especially on a very tight track like that. You seemed to be over cooking each corner entry, I think you need to put the transmitter on say 50 max throttle, or whatever the minimum is needed to clear the big jump and practice with reduced throttle limit, this will then let you just focus on braking and turning for now. Once you get used to it you can take the throttle limiter off. Also it looked like you could have reduced the steering throw on that ae. It had way too much steering
