Serpent 710

Need I say more
Unfortunately for me the 710 guy had a tuned 3 port
he could blast past me with my old SX-12 RE. I was so scared to get the mix wrong, I set the mixture far too rich
and my centax second gear kicked in at the end of the straight - man everything was ok when I was testing
typical mistakes on race day I suppose 
What a day though - the Mugen boys thought I had a tuned engine
funny seeing as they could from the start almost get me for the first couple of laps. But I drove smoothly and safely.......and then booted a couple of them from the circuit when they wouldn't let me through
revenge, lets say
and the 705 being a tank, they came off worst

Had a great day, but it's been spoilt by an old Girlfriend turning up

I give a fuller run down when I don't feel so mad.

Three races: first race 2nd second race 1st third race 2nd
I was beaten by a 710 driver - the Mugen boys where 6 laps down on us in each race. The race was summed over the best two races from the three - the 710 guy beat me by 1.35 seconds
A dominant Serpent display - if you like

So... when your 710 makes it's return with a JP, the Mugen guys might like to lay down on the floor and start crying before the race starts?

BTW: checked with the border guys, the JP engine uses the Novarossi conrod - but the JP version is cheaper

It was a far better result than I had expected. I need to calm down a bit, though, as my driving can be somewhat too agressive at times
But that's just lack of experience, cause I'm not an overly agressive person.....ehm, hmmm, just though, in the bicycle races I'm also very aggressive
maybe it's just my style 
Why? She might be there just to support you on your first race and pit for you. Unless of course, her presence made you shake like Gil
She turns up at my neighbours these days just to annoy me! It works, too!!! 
And well done to you for your first nitro race!!!
