Thanks everyone for the kind words. While I'm stoked with the win, it's a bit sad at the same time because the run of good form I've had with the 416 has not gone unnoticed, and from the next month onwards I'll be running the new T.O.P. Photon and retiring the 416 (to the shelf, I could never sell it)

I've got my kit pre-ordered.

For me, because they've got a distributor and a team that seems to actually care about people running the car in this country. That's exciting, and one of those intangible things that separates these companies, all other things being so nearly equal.

Congrats on the win Craig... Good job
Shame to hear you leaving us
but I guess we all need a new challange (one reason I once tried a JRXS-R, never again!) now and then, and the T.O.P car does look interesting.
Reminds me on setups, I have Glenn Domans to put up on my site, he finished second in modified at the recent BRCA nationaln behind Andy Moore and his TamIya-esque HotBodies proto...no blue bits on that one, not at all
Cheers
Ed

Hey
congrats on the win
got a Question boys
i was testing ready for the Euro's at Apeldoorn NL on sunday , a couple of the local boys had less spacers in the steeing (more ackerman i think)
what will this make the car do ??
got lots of steering but not a lot of rear grip
set up as per Jilles asphalt but 1.5 camber all round (rear tyres wern't wearing on the outside with 2 )
hope you can help

your problem is too soft spring/too hard oil on the rear but you will probably need a 1E rear or even 1 D with the new settings

I've been doing a lot of running on carpet since our new track opened last Wed, tomorrow will be my 4'th full day of running. Gotta say I don't think I could have my car any more dialed than it is.
For anyone interested in seeing the track you can check it out on Live RC, under OCRC.
