Fleetmaster they are a funny little car. I am loving it though.

SO basically drop it on its A&$e.. i can do that.

HPI X pattern tyres do wear out quickly. I noticed after a couple of hours of running around at Windsor it had a lot of wear.

what about springs.. Should i go for stiffer springs? would that Reduce grip?
Funnily enough, I havent found them to make much difference. I do run one rate softer up front for better turn in though. It seems that softening your setup at Windsor seems to help,just sounds all wrong though....
I'm sure that some other ,more mini experienced guys will chip in with their thoughts.
Alternatively, P.M. Besercoe,he is the one handing arses back at our track.
He may have some tips for you .....
