I heard there is a Marc Reinhard edition 415 coming out soon, does anyone know any details?

I assume it will have 05 pullies, and the evo 5 steering as per the TRF cars from the last few major events. Anything else new?

Hello again, been doing a lot of racing lately and now the heat is up over in the UK (about 30*C

). I was wondering if there was any way to keep tyre wear down by altering the set-up or should i just buy tyres which have a higher temperature range? The tyres i am using at the moment are Sorex 32r's.

Cheers, Charles

If there is a Marc edition, what do you think it would have different than the MSX? Just the evo steering? Has anyone tried the evo steering on their MSX?

TBH, harder tyres is the way forward. The only setup change you should be making is to change the balance to suit the tyres and track

At Southend this weekend I was running RP30's, pretty much kept my setup the same as always, only real change was to make the car a little softer to cope with the bumps.

Jist make sure that your not being too hard on the tyres, more than anything driving style can affect that more than anything.
