Just a quick update, I raced it at a club meeting a couple of weeks ago and qualified 3rd in the mod A main. We ran 7 minute finals and I ended up winning the final by a lap!

Well - I did it

Ran it at our regional last Sunday, absolutley amazing day, I got two 2nd in rounds in qualifying and gridded up 3rd. Fell down to 5th I think at the start of the final but got myself back up into 3rd at the end. I was on the pace of the first two - but just got a rough start.

I managed to beat some VERY good drivers with the latest and greatest (supposed to be anyway) cars!

You guys heard of Paul Bradby? Worlds A finalist? He was helping tweak the set-up on the day, so I let him have a go before the finals - he said it was dialed!!!! He want's one!

The car was great, had LOADS of traction, infact the small set-up changes we did to it were to get rid of some rear traction to let it rotate a bit more in the corners. It was still super easy to drive fst though.

Anyway guys, get out there and race your cars, they are great fun and still competative!

Now I need a new project
