Has anyone tried the jaco prisms on asphalt? What combinations worked well for stock and 19t? Thanks for any imput here.

I like 2x pink front and rear

Hi Oli,

On something that short I would say F-Brushes with Green/Green and start your rollout around 1.55 and work up or down. I have run on some very short tracks in my time and had gearing from 1.5 to 1.75 be fast, it's too hard to nail it without being there =)

Cool, thanks for the advice, yeah I know its difficult to say without actually seeing the track! What sort of rollout would you run on a track about the size of Vegas then?

Thanks
Oli

We ran well at 1.8 to 1.9, Steve's car was around 1.82 if I remember correctly.

For both stock and 19t Jason?

Cheers for your quick replies. Will have to get testing

can anyone tell me if a novak 13.5 will fit in a stock 12l4?

It will. You just need to remove the top pod plate and left pod bulkhead to get it in. The good thing is once its in you just leave it there

You will need to get a Robinson Racing 78T spur gear from your local hobby shop as the L4 is space limited for gearing with a 13.5T BL.

Thanks for the reply Adrian! 78 or 88 tooth spur? i just checked tower hobbies and the smallest they have is 88.

78tooth spur gear exist in both 48 pitch and 64 pitch

Hi guys,

referring to what jarkkom wrote a week ago, we had a successful meeting week ago at the Rebellion Race in Finland. 1/12th scale mod saw very high level racing as also Snowbirds winner Marc Fisher and Italian star Federico Sala joined the race among Simo Ahoniemi, Teemu Saarinen and most of the top drivers from Finland!

I managed to won all practice and qualifying rounds and took TQ ahead of Simo, Teemu in 3rd. Marc Fisher was running ion about 2nd to 4th spot in qualifying but he had some problems in the end and did not make the A main. Another CR’07 driver Henry Salmen took 4th place after qualifying with Jukka Penttinen bringing the third Ripper to the A-main.

In finals I had good and clean runs and won led the finals from start to finish and set the fastest lap of the race by 0.1s to Simo.

Final results
1 2 Vesa Yli 2 1 1 10 Carpet Ripper
2 4 Teemu Saarinen 4 3 3 1
3 1 Simo Ahoniemi 4 2 2 9
4 8 Ari Salminen 6 4 4 2
5 39 Ari Lappi 8 6 5 3
