Hi guys. Greetings from Malta.

JOHN S.

Whilst I have not been writing much I have been reading you all along.

We had another good day yesterday. Son Josh made it 8 out of 8 in the Mod class and now leads the championship with a healthy margin as we go past the half way stage. On a tight and technical track he actually lapped the second placed TC3 yesterday. And I won in stock which made it a very good day for JOHN BULL RACING.

Interesting to see that you too are using the same springs front and rear. We have that set up on Josh's TC3 and on my MR4 and it seems to work OK.

MOTOR BRUSHES.

I have done quite a bit of experimenting recently in this field. We are now using Orion bullet silver brushes and find they give very good results. Their new Sprint compound 4/6 remains consistant much longer than the previous 2/6 Sprint. In fact I now run Josh's motors for 2 five minute races between brush changes and skimming, and in stock, even with the sort of gearing we are using I can still get at least 4 runs before the brushes start to blue.

However I must admit I haven't tried the Trinity brushes, but intend to do so.

Regards

Joe from sunny Malta.
