Hey Yall,
Just a quick update. I got my Banzai Order in, and I'm LOVING my NB4!!! I haven't yet played with any settings, other than centering my steering, and everything has improved with driving mini-zs! Times are down, even though I'm almost a second slower CCW, fewer crashes, overall much more control!
Also got 3 new white bodies in. 2 LM's ( a Mazda & a Toyota GT1) and a Camaro. I put in the body clips and tried out the Camaro and the Mazda. The Camaro handles very close to the 12C, but the front splitter will bring it to a complete stop if you touch the wall, so the splitter will have to go. I don't have a 102mm motor pod, so I just used my PN V3 94/98mm and it worked just fine, but I don't have a Damper plate that will go to 102mm so I just left it loose. I ran some laps for the first time at 102mm, and WOW is it stable!!! I had some chattering with no Damper, but was crazy fast and had tons of steering! Ran a 3.69 Clockwise Lap!!! The fastest lap on this layout! I haven't tried the Toyota yet, probably tomorrow, but since I always test going clockwise, I might hold off as I need to get some times going CCW for this months entry. As much as I LOVE Nascar and all kinds of Oval Racing, I have a HARD time going CCW! My brain just wants to turn as if I'm going CW. I haven't had that problem when flying Planes or Hellis, but then again they aren't on a narrow track with walls! Hell I had my 9th grade English Teacher thinking she was crazy, as she would see me do my work in class, but it wasn't in my handwriting. What she didn't know is I'm ambidextrous, and for the first semester I wrote with my right hand! But that was over 30 years ago, and with the nerve damage in my hands I do good to legibly write period. LOL
Anyway I hope yall are well and COOL! Heat Index has been 110-115* all week here. At the same time we had over 20 minutes of golf ball to baseball sized hail one day, a few days later storms with 80MPH straight line winds! I think the earth is trying to tell us something!
Take Care and Drive Fast! Drew

Hey Guys,
Been messing with different wheel bases, springs, tires, and I do all of my testing going Clockwise, so I spent this last few days with my McLaren 12C going CCW. Got it down ok, and the NB4 is helping, and I'm starting to play with ALL the different settings it has. Here's my times, and I'm hoping to get better, but I'm not holding my breath!
