Dear Christoph,

unfortunately I can't say anything about the release date yet, but for sure it will be way in time for the next season.

Best regards
Patrick

Hi Michal,

Great movies ! Your car is stable and runs well.
Good to see V10 drivers from around the world.

Shame about the plug though ...

Don't worry, 13L of fuel in .12 nova 3st ... probably 15min too long training ...
Whatever, it is very good knowledge and feel when engine start die.
Before it, it was very fast and stable

As you can see in the manual, the rear of the top deck has 2 inserts.

Those that come with the kit are fixed inserts (no flex).
Maybe those can be replaced by other inserts which provide flex.

See page 30 in the manual here : http://www.team-shepherd.com/pdf/V10...ANUAL_2014.pdf

Hi!

Newbie question.

How to prepare tires for 45min main ?

I'm going to put at rear 45 on R side (it goes faster) max diameter posible,
L side 42 tire maybe 1mm less then R side.

Fronts 42 R side, 40 L side, same diameter, 2-2.2mm split from L rear side.

I don't know if my plan will be OK but for that track where will be my last nitro racing this year I remember, that R side goes faster ...

Any tip from experienced driver will help me and my friends

Regards!

Hah!

Nothing happend...
All broken by stupid rain ...
At Sunday when we finish it, sun come ... Crazy weather

Anyway, now I know that I need to get rain tires, just in case.
Rubber tire is much better on wet track then foam humido ...

Default What a car !

The Sunday that just passed i ran the new Velox Pro 2014 Spec with the new pro spec chassis and i have to say this car is awesome!

Our local track had not been run on for a few weeks and with recent showers the traction was very low. Off throttle understeer and on power over steer was making the car a bit hard to drive.

I changed the front shock piston from 2 hole to 3 hole and with a softer rear arb the car was dialed in. I did have to pull the trigger slowly getting on the power because the clutch was just insane! after 3 rounds of qualifying i qualified 4th.

I finished the 30 min main final in 2nd place after losing a bit of time at the start trying to keep out of trouble .

Looking forward to the next time out ! will post my setup soon
