Yes Will its official, due to the Vics approaching us soon we need to run as many meetings as possible so the surface can settle. Honestly Will you might be better off buying a new kit. The CR looks very nice. You know you want one.

Tim,

Holeshots, X2K's or Bigshots if it's wet.

I believe the kit comes with bigshots....

Your correct Neil , stock comes with Bigshots , red compound so i'll keep them for wet days.
With the holeshots and X2K's , what compound should i get and what about front tires ? Can i get these from the shop on Springy Rd.

Cheers

Tim,

We very rarely use anything but Red/M3 compound for rear tires.
Xtreme hobbies are looking into Losi at the moment.
I think f1 Toys stock Losi......

Actually Neil , iv'e built the CR by the book using the shorter arm settings which i'm guesinng will give me more steering.
Knowing Knox do you think i should change them out to the longer setting so the car is more stable over the rough stuff

So how was the racing on Sunday people. I am dissapointed that I wasnt there, family commitments, as I made aware to those that were at the working bee.
Anyway how was the track for those that were there last meeting. Where the alterations effective?


Cheers

BG,

Knox was good on Sunday, albeit bloody cold!!!
The track was lots of fun, the jumps are a blast now.
We need to fine tune the 'speedhump' though, crew were getting caught in the drain!!!

Keen to lean on a shovel on Saturday?

Going to have to miss this one Neil .

With the speedhump though , just make it bigger like it was when we first changed it , before it was rolled with the 4wd , that way the cars will just fly over it .
