Less than a week till the end of the month! Hope yall are getting this layout down ok! I was able to turn a 2.7xx with my GLR, but I'm having rx issues with it, so it's times probably wont reflect how good it is! I'm going to TRY to get all 7 classes run I have chassis for, but my shoulders and hands aren't cooperating right now, so I'm going to try my best!

Hope everyone is well! Drive Fast! Drew

AM03GT I really appreciate your non-flanged wheel setups.

I started running them to keep setups between large and small layouts the same, but wish everyone would go away from them.

Thanks i try to keep it simple ive been running long before flange/disks were a thing so i just keep to what i know... I have discs for my atomic wheels just in case on super high traction at races but ive yet to use them...

Trying to give this a whirl, but it sure is a challenge (hell, it's in the name!! lol). I'm never very consistent to begin with but on this narrow track I can't stay off the walls. I started with a Mini96 but expanded it so that I can run three tiles wide and adjusting down is taking a minute. I can hit a fast lap here or there but just can't go very long without some clunkers destroying my rhythm. Not ready to post a time yet but trying to get some laps in, maybe in the next two nights.

Turn down your steering dual rate and run in the middle. Make it a goal not to over drive/steer any corner, just enough to get setup for the next.

That helped!. Two 4:59 runs and feel quicker with the Box Stock MR04. Running the Jomurema body and it helps with the wall contact too. Started around 5:30 so it’s coming down a bit.

Today I got one of my MR03s switched to the new Porsche 911GT3RS body and that takes a steady hand to keep from sending it into a barrel roll. Going to have to figure that setup out. At least it is pretty good at landing on its wheels!

BoxxerBoyDrew 05-29-2025 03:07 AM

SMOKIN' RUN AM03GT!!! Looks like Traveler2 and Poor Boy have some serious competition!!!

ekim That's an AWESOME time too! Your quickly getting up to speed!

joelisenat, WELCOME!!! It is for sure a Challenge!!! Both fun and frustrating at the same time!
As others have said, turn down the steering and throttle d/r and add -expo if your radio has it, and focus on being consistent is the key. Speed will come! We're looking for the best overall time not the fastest lap. Often a car that is easy to control/drive will have a better overall time that a edgy car that will turn a fast lap. You may run 1 fast lap, but spend the next 3 in the wall trying to get your rhythm back! After 3 years I usually run 10-20laps very well, then my concentration lapses and I spend the next few gathering everything back up! Clean 75 lap runs are SUPER DIFFICULT to do! I really have to fight to keep from pushing the time limit during a run, as I start to get more wall hits as I push harder. So back everything down and work on staying in the middle of the track.

Yall keep up the great work and remember to have fun, BREATHE, and BLINK!!!:sneaky:
