How about having stiffener rod in the middle to help strenghten and straighten the chassis.
Link the stiffener from the X bar radio tray support to the front bulkheads?

D... you could also do little mod for V1RR lower bumper to be mount on S710. Anyhow, when you buy the kyosho upper plate, you also get the lower bumper.. so why bother buying another one.
True. Thanks for the tip.

Just as the english weather, the dutch weather can be unpredictable too. Better try to go there earlier than having to wait till nearing the end of the year.

And don't forget to bring along Uncle Sow too will ya...

You're right - one day I will wake up and all I'll want to do is sell all my gear and buy a lawnmower - and there won't be a single logical reason why I want to do it

If you're lucky, he may have bought one of the decomissioned concords

I don't mind. But that would be outlaw class in most airports. I can zip through half the travelling time.

Just make sure he doesn't ask you to get out half way through the flight to see how hot the motor is running

The old ones were yellow. New ones are white. But I think the rear belt remains yellow because those are still from the rear Impulse belt.

This is the last weekend where I don't have a bike race/marathon until the end of August (although 24th July is not a certain date).
But even if it means I end up going in October - I'm determined to go to MACH this year.
If you'd go this weekend to MACH you will be dissappointed because they've got new tarmac so no driving only for those who helped. http://www.mach-heemstede.nl/

Oh well, I couldn't really with my foot anyway - I probably won't even be able to drive at my local track


Cheers, Mark.

Besides, if a glitch happens, the steering servo is more unlikely to go beyond the EPA.
In my experimence, I turn off the Tx, steering went far beyond EPA, until cracking up the upper deck

How do you find mounting your PT below the throttle servo? Better than in the front upper bumper?
I have not tried putting PT on front bumper. I do not want my wire going accross all they way up front. It may have been different story for factory driver level I think
