Class- Open
Date- February 21, 2022
Location- Madison, WI
Race Time- 357.98
Fastest Lap- 4.34s
Chassis- Atomic MRT
Body- Abarth Fiat 500 Lexan
Wheelbase- 94mm
Tires- GL 17, Gecko Medium
Motor- 5600kv
Batteries- 360mah lipo
Front Springs- Stock
Rear Springs- Extra Hard
Gearing- Stock
Notes-Added some grease to the rear shocks which helped the rear be more stable. Turns out I already have the shortest gears installed so might turn down the ESC itself. Managed to sneak in under 6 min so consider that a win.
Previous notes -Much better than last month, managed to keep it off the walls a little bit. Have the motor turned down to 10% def need to gear down as much as possible to get more usable throttle. After this run I chucked a 1/4oz of lead on the front and it got even faster. Will put in another run after I make the gearing changes.

Coming next week add me to the list of Box Stock class!!!! I placed an order for a MR-03 ready set( Kyosho MR-03 RWD Mini-Z ReadySet w/Mercedes-AMG GT3 No.5 24H Nurburgring 2018), a Mini-96 track, some tires to try based off of yalls listings, and extras that others listed on the Mini-Z page here! Got it all at Kenon hobby, and they have a ton of stuff. They had the Mini-96 track in stock, and it was a bit higher which I was fine with paying for since who knows when Kyosho will get them back in stock. BUT I was SUPRISED when I saw the total for shipping! $150
I was expecting shipping to be expensive due to the large boxes, but $150??? I had a Optima Yellow top battery for my Chevy this summer shipped from a Large auto supply and it was only $35 for the shipping, and was 75lbs in a 18"X"18 Super Heavy Cardboard box.
SO how big are these boxes the track is in? Anyway I'm SUPER EXCITED to plunge into the Mini-Z !!!
Wanted to say Thank You to all that set up this Challenge, and all to contribute here to help us getting started!!!

Thanks for the Link Bmr4life! I'll check them out, being on a very limited budget, any savings will make a difference!
Now it's the agony of waiting for the FedX truck!!!
Wow, I should have asked Yall about places to shop,and I would have saved myself $200!!! Nothing I can do now, order has been placed!

Picked up this used stock car over the weekend. Have only put a few runs on it and lots of room for improvement but it is a super fun car. Will get times for box stock, 2wd and 4wd open later today.
