Race report:

With 2 practice sessions under my belt I ran my new 811E at the RC PRO nationals in Houston Texas the last 4 days. Coming from a Mugen mbx6e I felt the car was instantly as good out of the box as the mugen since my 1st practice session had me doing identical lap times. I only adjusted the center diff to 7k and went up 2 lvls on the springs in front and down 2 lvls in the rear.

It handled the rough better than my mugen and I could take corners faster as well as recover from undershooting jump landings. The proof came in the race results. About 4 other guys I have been racing around the state who had been kicking my ass when I drove the mugen were now eating my dust at this last race. I used to get laped by these guys on 10min mains and now I was doing the lapping! TY Serpent! I'm loving it!
