Okay people. I'm ready to dive into the 2014 season....
Weather is starting to co-operate, so I wanna pick a date for a clean up/bash session at Wagner....
This will be for 1/10th and 1/5th scale....
I'm thinking either April 20th or April 27th....What date is best for you????

I want to chalk out the new 1/5th lanes and paint the white borders to start....Then touch up the white borders on the 1/10th track....
I will pick up the supplies (paint/rollers) and accept donations to cover them....
Planning on getting there around 3pm....this Saturday April 14th
p.s. Bring your 1/5th scales so we can test a bit too....

Ran my new FG Sportsline 530 on Sunday at BD. Turned out to be a disaster. First problem was traction. The car was spinning out and doing 360s all over the track. I tried using a set of P Supreme super soft tires. This only inproved the sliding a little bit. Whats the best traction compound to apply to the stock tires to soften them up? The other 5th scale racers had the same problem. Why in the hell did they go with a 10th scale servo for throttle and brake? After 10 minutes of driving, the servo crapped out! My day was over. I found a 1/4 scale servo holder from Aeromarie that will fit into the stock spot. This will fix that problem. The track was just resealed the day before, mabey next time will be better. Also does anyone have setup specs for this car? I cant find that anywhere. When we ran the cars in BDS parking lot, the traction was great.

There is not setup guide that I know of for the Formula 1 or the Sedan. It maybe a bit frustrating at the beginning but you will figure it out. you should start with the factory settings and go from there.
Send me a PM with your number and I will give you a call later today.
