June 2022 Layout
We are going with a new layout for June running clockwise.
Drive fast! https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rct...dd997c0d89.jpg |
Hey Guys, I'm back running this month, and this is a CHALLENGING layout Traveler2! I just received part of an AMain order of mini-z parts, and I got some low and super low profile 30* tires, so I slapped the super lows on and they made a HUGE difference with the twitchiness of the front end!!! I ran a quick 75 laps after about 30 warmup laps, and I was able to keep it off the walls better and had fewer complete stops needing reverse. I ran my fastest lap of 5.64 and my average lap was in the low 6s. I accidently hit the start/stop button while trying to get a screen shot:flaming: so no actual #s. My Ipad I use LapTracker on is charging so I'll get some actual #s up tomorrow. I'm still very much a noob with Mini-Zs, and while I seriously doubt I'll ever get near the times Yall are able to, I'm having a blast trying to run the cleanest 75 laps I can! I'm half way through reading this entire post and learning A LOT, so THANK YOU ALL for the info and the time everyone has put into this AWESOME CHALLENGE!!!
Take Care and Drive Fast, Drew Class- Box Stock Date- 06/21/22 Location- Central Texas Race Time- 492.4 Fastest Lap-5.08 Chassis- MR-03 Body- Jomurema Wheelbase-98mm Tires- Kyosho Super Low height 30 fronts/ PN-KS Radial Soft rears Motor- stock Batteries- PN 900mAh Front Springs- Kyosho Red T-Plate- Nexx Black Carbon #5 Motor Mount- MM Dampener (If applicable)- factory rtr Dampener Fluid (If applicable)- none Gearing- stock gear diff/ 7t Notes- Added super low height fronts, Carbon T plate, and PN aluminum T plate mount this month. This along with the king pin flip and polish has my mini-z handling quite well as it's my slow reflexes, old eyes, and lack of concentration that has my times where they are! I'll never be where a lot of you are in times, but it's fun trying, although sometimes frustrating!:D 6/25 Update Bit faster time. I gained quite a bit of control with the T plate and S Low front tires. I'm able to get into the throttle in the straights much harder. Now if I can just keep focused for all 75 laps! https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rct...43af01ea7b.png https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rct...0ac4102f2d.jpg 6/20 Update: I got the T Plate and aluminum mount in and installed and it makes a HUGE difference in handling! I ran 75 laps and took almost a minute off my total time! And just like last time my butter fingers hit the start/stop button while getting a screen shot and erased my numbers! Damn it!!! I am having a problem with one of the super low profile tires coming off the rim while sitting on the stand overnight! It is taped on Nexx Rim with PN narrow IIRC. I'll keep on trying to get a screen shot LOL! 6/21 Update: I finally got a screenshot! :p Not my best run with more stop/reverses than I was shooting for. But I'm getting cleaner with each run. I left the car on the track to see if the tire would come off, and in didn't but it did slide off about a mm. I tried flipping the tire around but it still popped off??? Anyway here's the #s https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rct...593ed7fe24.png https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rct...b168ab48aa.jpg |

Was putting in a session tonight with the MRT and broke a rear CVD. The Oring holding the spur gear on also snapped. Will try to fix it but may not be able to put in a run this month.

I tried flipping the tire around but it still popped off??? And where in central TX are you? There is a track in Waco that does some Mini-Z racing. |
