Mini-96 World Challenge

What body is that on the 102mm GLR? What rear and side springs do you have installed? Are you using the longer spring set for the longer shock shaft? I would think that the green or red spring with preload adjusted to keep the pod flat with the chassis could aid in finding traction for the 102mm wheelbase. The car doesnt look too far down on traction in the video, but its hard to tell.
Front springs are GL green, sides are Kyosho green, Center is the GL long green.

In Milan, a little better, but it will still be hard ...
I hope the situation is improving in the United States... As soon as I can I will do other tests, the car is going very well, but I know it can give me even more .. then I have to be able to turn to decent times, no more at night .. hahaha

Today marks the 1 year anniversary of the Mini96 World Challenge. A year ago today The official rules were posted as well as the fist circuit that we ran. All in all I think the M96WC is maturing well, we have had a slow but steady growth with a major uptick once the FB Group page was set up. I hope all of you are enjoying the good natured competition that the M96WC brings. I, for one, have learned a lot about these little cars and while there are times of frustration there is also a feeling of satisfaction when you change something up, or nail a good run, and you improve your time. Thanks for running, without all of you it would not be nearly as fun.
I was just looking at some numbers and figured I would post a couple stats I thought were interesting:
-So far we have had right around 28 drivers post times in the first year.
-In the last year there have been roughly 170 times posted.
-Times have been posted in 7 different classes.
-Each 75 lap stint is roughly a mile in length.
With all this said lets see what kind of participation numbers we can get in year two. I do want to say that it seems like there are a number of folks who have shown interest but have not posted times. If you have a track and run please post your time no matter how competitive your time is. I ask you to do this for a couple reasons, the more people that post times the more likely other will post. While you may not be sitting on the podium you will get a sense of who you are close to in speed and can gauge your performance and progress off of them. Secondly it is cool looking back, this morning I was looking at my times from a year ago and realize how far I have come.....My first postings from my GLR had a fast lap of 5s and now I am turning 4s laps......So please, if you run post your times.
Cheers,
Jim

First entry for Mini96WC. Think I finally got the hang of the layout, but can't come anywhere close to a 5 minute run or 4 second lap, holy fast! This will have to do for now, maybe I'll get a faster run in before the end of the month.

good morning everyone, a kindness: the most used categories are: boxstock, stock and prostock? or is there a continuous comparison on all categories? last thing: is it possible to use brushless motors of any 5500kv brand for prostock? thank you very much.

Yes, you can use any 5100/5600kv motor in Super Stock.
Cheers,
Jim
