I was going to run my Xevo, but that didn't work out, so I ran with the lightest M-03 I could build without making Swiss cheese of the chassis. My go fast parts were the 3Racing fast gear set (absolute crap and now residing in the garbage bin behind me) a Yeah Racing locked diff (made the car a complete pig) and some RP Takeoff slicks (super grippy, but really slowed down the top end, seeing how I chucked the fast gears into the trash, which, coincidentally was the fastest they've ever moved.)

In our VTA/GT class, I shared the track with our VTA cars (21.5T BL w/timing) and an FF-03. Other usual entries include F103GTs and assorted carbon fiber hot rods. I had no chance, but had a really great time anyway.
