Good Conclusion

http://www.mytsn.com/publ/publ.asp?pid=10046

Check out his conclusion.

Is almost exactly what we (me+pyramid) felt during 3 days intense testing.
Different is, this is my 3rd car and $$$$ for tires and fuel to come up with those conclusion.
But this man can do on 1 single race:)

I guess this is explaining why Mr Hard and Mr Julius is a team driver and we are not...:lol:

Here, the race atmosphere is very high. Our car is need to be 100% race ready in every 2 week.
So, instead of buying the chasiss, pulleys belts, arms and so and so usually I sell the car cheap and built another kit.
It is cheaper, looks like a little bit borjuis but believe me... it is cheaper.(price vs performance wise):nod: :nod:

As D would say bourgeois is passe :lol: :lol:

After how many races do you buy a new car? If you want to sell on cheap in this direction - I'm open to paying very little :lol: :lol:
