Didn't touch the car at all apart from changing the tyres & batteries. Wanted to change something but didn't dare as I was having such a ball and I was getting quicker each run
Car was on rails, eating the faster open class cars in & through the corners, only to loose 4 to 5 feet on the straight
All in all a good day.
Jason,
edit the above setup for 6.5BL & lower please to give a starting point for a low to medium grip carpet for the next round or maybe SlowerOne will post his setup here to from the same event
