It was the grub-screw. Phil confirmed it at the presentation speech, with a cheeky comment about it being a Capricorn grub-screw (he was probably using Mugen thread-lock though). There was plenty of cheek between the Goat (Greatest Of All tings), Mugen and Shepherd teams in the speeches at the presentation. Great to see so much friendly rivalry between the teams; everyone had a laugh, and Capricorn, Shepherd half of the Mugen teams pushed their tables together so we could sit together at the dinner.

But again; the Capricorn team set the record straight of which is the best car to all you misguided Mugen supporters. Two wins in the two scales we were in, and four out of six podiums. Mugen had a 3rd in 1/8th scale and Shepherd a 2nd in 1/10th scale, in case you don't know.

Kindest regards,
Lars.
