Ran the V5 at the Sunday race. Took TQ and finished first in the main. So far the V5 is the only car that has made 10 laps on our track at 5 minutes.

The V5 is so consistent and predictable.

Couple things though, I seem to be burning through front tires. They are wearing much faster then the rear. To the point they are slicks whereas the rear are only worn about 40%. Im thinking this might be the center dif fluid. But I'm using Ofna 7k, which is much lighter then the suggested dif fluid.

Other issue is with the battery strap hold downs on the front side. There is only one screw that holds this hold down in place and it is bending from the weight of the battery tugging on it. Would really like to see a more solid battery hold down rather then the velcro straps. I'm going to work on something different and let you guys know what I come up with.
