Shane dug some new drains today so some of the puddling should be negated and we also discovered that the main pit drain was blocked on the outside of the fence but I think I've fixed that one.

It seems I'm not the only one who thinks covering jumps is a good idea. If this is what they use for a big event in Das Vaterland, we are a truely international track.

Yeah not bad Nick, I think covered jumps are great, but it sux big time when your car gets caught on the leading edge of the carpet. I also noticed that Shane's Short Course was having a run, and that the call of "Forking Marshell" is an international language for all RC Racers......The guy getting hit in the leg is a classic.....Lucky for him he wasnt at Ryde with Brendans Hovercrafts race.

Hey guys, are there any B4 setups/setup sheets laying around here for the track?

Me and a few other staff members from Kelletts will be heading down next saturday arvo/evening meet (providing everything goes according to plan).

Finished building the B4 couple of hours ago and just wanna have a look and see what sort of setups are being run there.

Cheers

I ran the kit setup with about 2deg camber on the front with holeshots on the rear for Sundays and bowties for Saturday nights in the winter when it was damp.

The 5000 saddle is the same size, the 5200 is 2mm higher.

Thanks for that, yeah, will try the kit setup with the holeshots initially, with maybe green springs on the rear as someones told me also. JConcepts tyres is also what im planning to try out.

I gotta look into the 4th hole on the rear shock tower mod as well.
