Anyway, you should get the Loletta by Frewer. Serpent also carries this. More steering and greater downforce in the front.

I find that with the Loletta, the driving characteristics of the car are more aggressive compared to the conventional Lola.
Exactly!

After all, this was the original "adrenaline" story as described by Glenn and then someone asked how to do the same with the 710.

Yes, there's more to the Loletta than most realised. Couple to it with the rear solid and front 1-way and you'll find its one of the fastest car if not THE fastest on the 200mm "lola" world (assuming, of course all else being equal).

The only thing I would be trying out, if it wasn't for our current racing rules here) is to also put in the 21T!

There's also one other thing too ... but we can talk about that when I get a set to play with.

Hey sparsky, thanks for the link. I've actually tried searching for it perviously and never found it.

How did you do the windows? The little dots around the windows looks cool.

Well I didn't do anything exept cut and sticker.

But the dots can be made by spraying a bit of silver in a jar. Then using a very small brush put the dots on the windowframe. Them back it with black.

Looks good Julius. I wish I had a shell to show off but I think none at the moment.

Anyway, any reason for the Alfa? I thought you preferred the Stratus 2.1 instead of Mazda 6 on the current Heemstede MACH track. What Alfa is that? Protoform?

No, I prefer the Mazda over the stratus2.1 I do think many would be better off using the Stratus as it is easier to setup and race. The Mazda is slightly faster though.

The alfa is a Losi. It was painted by Maarten Pothuizen for the euro's last year. I haven't run it yet, but RickV used it at Heemstede and was really fast. So I finally took the time to mount it for a testdrive....

Frewer only recently got their web site up and running.

Coming from 1/8 I wanted to run solid rear and one way front. Haven't tried it yet, so will be interested in the results.
