yes!

thanks .

Some time ago I had this conversation with someone overehere. He was interested to buy the rc devil but he wonderd as well if he could set 6-7mm front ride height with smaller tires. Thanks for the pictures and clearing it up. Will tell him that it indeed is no problem.

I would like to know the date of "Le Mans Race" I think organized by german guys at MACH this summer and the Championship club at MACH.

That "Saturday evening Competition" should be nice too.


Will be there that new chicane still?

@Rokosam
Just to add a little background for that race.

Traction was not that great last year as there were almost no nitro cars driven there. That race was a clubrace and they are held on saterday evening. The stock 10.5t pro10 is run during the clubraces and the modified pro10 have there own series but ran during this clubrace as well.

Most modified drivers were there for the first time and came on friday evening or saterday afternoon. They didn't have much time to get a setup together for the race that started around 18:00 on saterday.

During practice on saterday afternoon one modified car was even overtaken on the straight by a local 10.5t stock pro10 going 95+km/u. It was funny as it shook the mod driver quite a bit.

This year the nationals will be at Heemstede again and the modified pro10 will be pressent as well. As the nationals are driven on sunday they will have ample time to get there setup together on saterday. Also the nitro 1/10 and 1/8 class are driving again so traction will hopefully get better.

The MACH changed the layout for the World Championships that are being held there this year. The straight is quite long and fast due to the high speed corner before the straight so they put a chicane there to not let it be a slug fest of whomever has the fastest straight line setup. It was asked by the drivers themselves. Also the rubber touringcar tires can't handle the modified speed so well and some tires get ripped from the wheels. The chicane is not a permenant one. It can be changed to get the long straight part again.

The nationals on the MACH will be at 19 and 20th of May and the RC LeMans series (modified pro10) will be there as well next to the stock 10.5t pro10.

For more dates click OUTDOOR KALENDER on the mach website and you can download an excel race calender.

For the dates of the RC LeMans series go www.rc-lemans.de and click on RENNTERMINE 2012.

yes like i said, 19 and 20th of may the RC lemans series will join the nationals. If you like big races you could also wait for the Benelux+ race in Rucphen on 1-7-12. It is a 2 days event with timed practice and first qualification on saterday and other 2 qualifications and 3 finals on sunday. It is also on the RC LeMans site. Rucphen has high traction so a little easier to setup the car for it.

Last year many came on friday to practice. You can camp on the circuit.

edit:
Modified pro10 during the Benelux+ in Rucphen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZ8txwWPXo4 . This was in between rain showers, the track had just dried up a little.

To clarify it a little more. NK is short for Nationaal Kampioenschap; (National Championship) and the number 2 is for the second race in that series. We have 6 races as shown in the calander in the electric section.

The RC lemans series is another series that is setup 6-7 years ago by pro10 racers. They go to 6 circuits and usually are combined with other race series or events such as the National Championship in Heemstede or the Benelux+ race in Rucphen or other clubraces elsewhere. In 2009 they were at the ETS for a race in the Netherlands.

Hello, Have someone of you tested Xceed tyre traction fluid with pro10 tires? It says is good for foams and rubbers indoor and outdoor (asphalt?). They have TF-1, TF-2 and TF-3. I think TF-1 is for low grip tracks.

What is the use for rear tires with two different compounds? How does that affect things?
