Low A-main or High B-main .... I`m trying out all of my New Batteries and a few well Balanced 23T Xenon Stock Motors.. I have been able to better my average lap time by .2 so things are looking good also there will be all of the people that placed in the top 3 at the past couple of Xenon/Alex races..so comp will be tough ... but whats good about this Race is that there will be no Novice Racers so no broken parts for me

Or 30W if he has the stock pistions.. from what I have been hearing ALEx will include a new pistion with the R3 teflon and 1.2mm keep your fingers crossed

Im hoping for Mid A or High B main today as well, regional meeting down at Elsemere Port. Im racing stock, taking a monster and p2k2 down.

No broken parts.... famous last words
Surely if there were novice drivers the heats would be sorted into rough ability groups? Normaly there isn't a problem with driving with erratic drivers when you're not so erratic. It's quite good at my club because the top heat is always pretty regular so I get to race with the same guys every week, some you have to be careful about

Good luck, go know another 0.1 off your lap times

I wish I was racing tomorrow geting itchy stick thumbs

Got to wait until Monday, then I'll be trying for top 3 If I drive like I did last week and th car handles as well it should be possible now I'll have more speed too

Hi Dave,

I am curious with this charger being sold by Alex Racing. Do you have any info on the performance and how it compares to the CDC by Eagle Racing and maybe Millenium Pro by Novak? We havent seen the charger locally so we dont have any knowledge, perhaps you have seen other racers use it in Japan. Any info will be greatly appreciated. Thank you

It's hard to give gearing advice without know the track you race on. You should ask the guys at your track what overall ratio they are using and work backwards from there to find a rough idea of what you need.
I run my stock motor indoors and use 20-22 tooth pinions and a 69 spur gear, outdoors on a medium sized track I use a 28-29pinion, on a larger track I could easily see me using a 34 and my indoor track isn't exactly tiny. With a different stock motor like a P2K2 I'd expect to gear 2 or 3 teeth higher atleast. It varies a huge amount.

Do you have any idea's about gearing for other motors at your track? Do you crash a lot? What make of motor is it?

Just run the same final drive ratio you would with any other car running a 10 single...

Herminator

pick me up on the way would you?

hehe I don't know all the rules myself, but it's a bit like american football but with no forward passing, a lot less stopping and starting and very minimal protection. None of this namby pamby massive body armour
