Okay, okay, first time racing the car, not a gas car specialist, first actual race for the car, it's only been available less than 2 weeks. Yeah, I suppose that's "not bad".
sheesh, what do you want man!

I was beat yesterday,that was all I could muster..
but if you don't think I was enthused,I posted it in 5 different threads..( and got heat because of it)....
I think it was GREAT for HPI to get the win...you guys have supported the hobby for a LONG time.......And to shut everyone up with a PRO car win....it doesn't get any better...
I talked to a few of the losing companys today....
You guys SHOOK them up......

Anyone notice that the winning R40 had its electronics mounted on the opposite side of the engine/pipe and the stock location is not in use.
Hey fastharry...is this the first mod you'll try or are you just going to use the stock location?
I was thinking about mounting my receiver in the same location but my person transponder and failsafe in the stock receiver location or vice versa.

Ummm, from Hara's R40 pics, it looks like it's a VERY long fuel line. Plus a large external fuel filter too
Does anybody think that the stock tank contains less than 75 cc fuel?
