Hey Guys,
Just a few quick updates. If you havent got yourself one of the Hudy 3mm Drive Pin Removing Tools, there great and super easy to use. Id recommend one for sure.
Im also now using rear alloy chassis brace. Im also using the new Novarossi Toro Nero Team version in my 808. Look forward to using this baby with the other Xray boys in ACT and ill offer some feedback.
Have only run 2 litres through it and "This is the fastest engine ive ran" to date.
TORO NERO TEAM = WEAPON

I have had the plus4c and it was great but te toro team is another league.
I beleive it has more bottom and most impressive is the rpm.
Sounds like a bee!
Hope xray can make a good performance at titles in Canberra. I agree with Ari , I think building the car is the best bit.
Might see you all this weekend in Canberra

We have had a few busy weekends of racing 3rd and 4th we had our Second leg of the WACC (Western Australia challenge cup). We had great runs in both classes QUALF 2nd in Truggy but mechanical failure put us out in the Amain buggy we finished 5th we were happy with the out come.
6th Oct we headed out to the Victoria state titles 808 was dialed at the Mildura track but we had major engine troubles so we went back to the trusty Ninja back in and we were off. Made the Amain and was running 5th when the front bearings collapsed and put us out. Vic track was great and when the track grooved up it was like tarmac, Went bumpy in the main but heavier sway bars sorted it out.
Will post the set up sheet soon....
