I put the VXL back into it and bolted some weight to the nose of it.
No more stick-on weights coming un-stuck.....
But..... I finally raced the pede' ......

I was not going to, but the more I ran practice laps... the more I felt it would be "okay".
I was surprised....
Heat #1 .....finished last.... LOL...... Okay that wasn't a surprise, but I mostly finished last due to bad-luck crashes near the end.
Heat #2 .... finished 7th (out of 9).... I was shocked....

(everyone gets to run all 3 races if your wondering)
The Main: ..... finished 7th (out of 9).
Would have had 6th..... but I lost it on the last lap...

......and this was all done with stock talon tires in place too.
I had a lot of fun.... can't wait to do it again.
Still need tires, but I got a new clod I'm building that is taking all my money....
Off the tight twisty track the pede' is running great!
The nose-weight helps keep the nose down and the heavier VXL give it a little more traction.
I've also put metal shock caps and TiNi shafts on the shocks.
