I still gotta get around to putting the NFE on my CH10 
On my CH12 I found the set screws for the ride height adjustment too short for the o-ring idea I had. The next longest set screws I had were 3mm so I gave them a try and they fit nice and tight...no need for the o-ring now

Yes I did. I want to run that class, plus I want one. I have intentions on going to the IIC this year and only running one class there doesn't make good use of of the cost of going to that race by myself, so... Also, looking for someone to split the room with.

Talk to Jason, though he's wavering.

Just wondering if the Copperhead Hoodies are available yet. It's starting to get cold down here in the southern Hemisphere.
Ran my copperhead for the first time yesterday on a large Nitro track. Car felt great out of the box. Only problem was dumping all of my qualifying runs trying to get a competitive rollout yet still make run time. Next week I will concentrate more on fine tuning the car.

My Copperhead was working great today...I think I might finally have the set screw slipping issue licked. First qualifier I had swapped out the set screws for 3mm ones which felt tight...but still they lost their setting. After that I put my o-ring idea back on the car and ran the first main...in that one my blurry contacts had me go wide and slam into the pit wall head on and fly into the driver's stand and again the front set screw slipped...but I chalk that up to the really bad hit which would have demolished any other car out there. The next 2 mains the front set screw settings stayed perfect! In the last main we all let non-1/12th drivers drive our car and my Copperhead 12 with the NFE lapped the field twice! The guy who drove it hadn't driven pan cars in probably over 15 years and got to .1s of my fastest lap. He really liked the car's setup and how easy it was to recover from a mistake. I'm really happy with my car's performance today and can't wait for the next race already
