First off Thank you Oleg for designing such a good performace car.
It was easy to drive and adapt to the track changes very well.
Also I like to thanks Scotty and my friends for support.
Once I get back to the State, I am looking forward to race more with the A700

Thank you and see you at the race track

Congratulations Nemo ! Great to see a local Southern California driver and friend win at such a prestigious International race. Especially with as little time you had with the car. Is it even a month old yet ?

Thanks guys!

It was definitely a learning experience dealing with that much bite, even more so than last year at The Gate. I finally got the tire prep right for the third (and final) qualifier and tried my best to wrestle TQ from you EA, but it went up in flames. Literally!

Let me know when to send what's left of that motor in for warranty work (I jest)!

The car makes it easy, and I know the EAM pack and rotor helped too.

Question
Well how close can you get with all the electronics and batteries balance between two sides and front and back of the car?

I had to add 80g of weight onto my A700L to make 1380.

I think it would be great if corner weights were added to the setup sheet.

Wow. Including the spray bomb special? Considering that the bodies weigh 90-100 grams and your add-on of 80 grams - you have a 1200 gram car?

What are is your running gear now?

Without a body I am at 1270 with L chassis, 17.5, orca, ko servo, 228 lipo pack, fan and transponder.

4 scale setup in race trim

You have a good start of a bigger idea...

Would be interesting to see a second page to the setups that provided more technical notes like;

- corner weights
- graphing of current dampener rate to show the approximate softer and harder spring rates & dampening rates from the current setting.

Surely more to add.

My protoform lightweights (LTC-R, Speed 6, P37) have always come out right around 85g painted, with Faskolor, before they start accumulating clag. I have one I painted with Tamiya spraycan in Hong Kong I should weigh. It's translucent red.
