The pro 3 had very LONG arms.....

The jrxs have very SHORT arms.....

Pro 3 had a very flexible composite chassis....

Jrxs have a stiff carbon fibre chassis....

We are comparing apples to oranges

@Martin: Please just drop the subject, and concentrate on your own car. "Corally team driver" you said... Well, well. Why don´t act like one and let the other teams working there way up the grid?

I´m pretty sure Matt, Todd, David and Hupo will sort it out sooner than later.

Man those guys have their cars so hooked up it looks like they run foams and they are on rubber tires. Just amazes me when I watch those guys run. Scary thought is I think that most have one ways in and they just seem to hug those corners and slow up at will even witht he one ways. I'm impressed.

Great vids!!!!!!!!!!!

Good eyes, P-dub. Looks like a very narrow chassis...

I have Anders...

And well, actually, I think being in the C-final, barely a lap away from Hara was quite ok, considering I was struggling to get my car to be like it should have been...

I was there too, and I also watched with eager how the Losi handled. It had real hard turn in, but looked to be quite nervous around tight corners. Matt was definately having a hard time. Granted, he was unlucky in the qualifying heats saturday, but come on...G-main for a A-main contender at the Worlds.
At least he won the G in superior fashion.

Looks like the car needs some more work on carpet with rubbers. It has the potential for sure, just wasn't shown from any of the Losi guys.

About the carpet...it wasn't as slippery as it might look. There was plenty of grip. After the race, a 1:12 was sent on track to show the public what 1:12 is capable of (1:12 isn't popular i Europe). First corner, it traction rolled. Without additive and yes, tires was trued to a usable diameter.

Definately a blast to see how the big guys race against eachother. Especially the battle between Hara and Reinhard for the overall win in the last A-main until Reinhard made a mistake. Had he not done that, it could have gone either way.
