Most guys in my club suddenly bought Xrays X1 cars in the last two weeks. So F1 becomes a more important role... Finally



Today it was F1 training. I made my personal "Ferrari days" by driving the F1R2 conversion and my F201. Unfortunately the broad foam tires have to little grip to enjoy driving.
I already had this problem last time, but thought I could get rid of it with setup corrections. Today I tried other foam tires and succeeded on the rear. Now I need a little more grip in front
The car took the beating by the 10.5t motor very well. Its speed on the straight is awesome
I just need to change the old ballcups as the amount of slop is just too much to drive a precise line.

I really wish Exotek would do a chassis conversion for a 4wd F1 car.
