Uncle Crash's JP FX was simply ballastic ! So lapping the other racers by 3 laps halfway through a 20 minute main is not considered fast, I don't know what is...

I think Uncle Crash is using the latest 16T ones with the orange packaging. He has no problems with the 16/61 combo. Drive train is smooth with the clutchbell and the spurs turning smoothly.
And yeah, no problems at all through that dirt road track race we had last weekend doing the Mark Green stunt bumping to A main !
Poof !

Hi,
I think Kyosho deserves all the credits and honor's for winning the Worlds!
They have built a car that's capable of handeling high speed, and is very good on technical tracks.
The Sirio engines delivered them the power they needed.
Ofcourse they have good money and a lot of top level racers, but
to win the Worlds everything needs to be perfect, and having tire problems like Serpent had may not even happen on club-level.
The only one to blame is Serpent itself.
It's the second time in 3 years that Serpent is loosing a big event due to problems like this.
During the 2001 1/8 Worlds they used 4 different cars by the team drivers so the possibility to help eachoter wasn't ther, and now they had this.
Kyosho did do their work very well.
I'll bet that Serpent is going to have some for Sale activities after this bad result

Well, since Serpent was probably the 2nd highest spender in the event, they probably deserved that 2 places in the final.

Well, it was meant figuratively.
Surprisingly, the 3R is not so cheap in MY as I was made to believe... The 710 is still cheaper by a bit.

Love the way he overtook 4 guys in one lap!
By the way ... any videos of this last dirt road race?
