I am trying one last time to get this new spektrum to work before I send it back.. So I'll run a 4.0 in practice at the hill this friday and we will see if it drops out again... But you guys won't mind if I stick some padding at the end of the straight? I would hate to punch a hole through the colorbond.
dont run mod until you find out whats wrong, id hate to see a good car get wrecked.....

cheers

I think 32r and 36's still work well.

We have been thinking about going one step further with race results and going straight to the net. This will be for major meetings only but unfortubately we have to trial it some were before Hills Cup in 5 weeks time. So please bare with us. This will not be done tonight becase Linda & Liam will be running the meeting due to me not being there.
So be kind

Trev

heya folks
just wondering if anyone had any luck in repairing a toasted GTB? Mine still works...in a funny way after the digital servo supposedly returned a rogue current to the speedo.

if so, any contacts would be helpful. Many thanks.
