Matt, you're welcome to run the lipo- I won't be using it, as it's points score. What car do you run? It won't fit in a T2...

If all goes well today Adam and I are going to be heading down to the track at about 1pm today to start setting up.

If we can get there early we hope to have the track set up by about 2.30 as I want to do a bit of repair on the road rail. Will try and send another post if its going to happen. Should be able to use the track from about then, so if your not doing anything, as they used to say in the price is right.



Come on down

Thanks Nick,
I'm running my TC4 chassis. Till the new RDX anyhow?
The battery should fit no drama, I think most people tape them in as the strap has no side ways supports.
The new KOKAM 3200 LiPo has the cell shaped moulded into the pack so it will drop into the slots on most cars.

Regards,

Tyre compound. It is 36 at Mascot and the track would be well over 50.

A big thanks to nick marsh for some close racing in the mod final, it was the most fun i've ever had with an electric car. Those laps where we were head to head and overtaking each other was just so... FUN!

A good night of racing and a big thanks to TWR for getting there early (in the heat) to set up the track and to IDM for race control.
I have a bit of homework to do before the big one next weekend but last night was good practice.
