Favorite picture of the event so far...


I'm reading a chunk of drivers, including Robert, are struggling to get a grip on the tyre treatments, which effects things like having to run really small tyres, run super low ride heights to stop traction rolling, and very uneven grip from the start to end of a heat.

In one interview Rob said the car starts out wanting to traction roll, then looses all grip by end of the heat.

I would guess that the tires are over heating to the point that they actually lose grip.but I'm no pro so what do i know?

Any electric on full nitro foams (26/30mm) is awesome, it's a class been run at out track for some time now, natural progression if as a trend it ever took off, could be a 200mm chassis, one new electric brand has actually already gone and made a 200mm kit with just that in mind.
