If losi were to make a reversed motor mount ou could change everything round to run it, it would be a big change though

You can reverse the drive system anyway as the car is symetrical, but looking at the car you would need to move over the servo, and swop belts over to opposite side, that way you could run the oneway.
I tried to heat up the oneway shaft on a ceramic hob (the Mrs was not happy, oh well tra la la) but as the thermostat kept cutting in, and the shaft would not get hot enough for the bearing to drop out. I will try popping in the oven (Mrs wont be happy again oh well Tra la la) and see what transpires.

Being spun round by some iffy driving as you well know
malc i was wacthing the last final and it was a good race to wacth between you and tim.i dont think that he took you out,the way i saw it he was quicker through the sweeper and into the next corner and he held a tighter line into that corner where you went slightly wider.
so after the 4 min 40 secounds of great racing wacthing you 2 going round nose to tail he made his move and pulled it off.he had the line from the sweeper and held it so if he had the line into the corner then you should have backed of and then you wouldnt have toched.
please dont flame me for puting this as this is how i saw it and is my opinion on what was a great race to wacth.
and i wont let you look at my magazine either lol

I know what your saying, and what your saying is right to a point, its just that as he went past me he spun me round, I did turn to him and shook his hand after the race to say how I enjoyed the battle with him, its just he spun me round in the 2nd final too, which put me from 3rd back to 10th where I only managed 7th, shame really, as I think I could have held my 3rd place overall as I needed only 2 more placings to get Rubber Duck Racing in 1st 2nd and 3rd place, still, I put most of the young wipper snappers in their place eh
Cheers Malc The I cant wait for the 2nd of June for you to buy me a Burger Man

maybe they had one-ways from the development car with the bearings reversed?

They are working on the new one-way, but it will be a little bit before it is out.
What setup did you end up with at the Invite this past weekend? Send me a pm or drop me an e-mail. I am very interested in seeing what you were running.
Thanks!
