comped today got a third. if i would have hit one less gate it would have been second. Fastbacks doing well. I lowered the ride height to 2 1/2" to the front of the skid. I think ill go back to 2 3/4", seemed like i was dragging the belly alot today. Also gonna get sedonas for the front. But otherwise not a bad day. The jp 35t i got from Mini kicked ass!! Still need more finesse in my driving. I think with that handwound 35 it will help, its so smooth.

Bill your driving was very good today, still gotta work on that throttle a little. You were definately dragging the skid today, it needs to go back up.

It sure was close between us at the end of the day, but you know the old saying

close, but no cigar

close only counts in horseshoes and handgernades

or something like that

Or I could have just done another 8 reverses!

They don't hit your battery, or your servo when you turn?

Nice tires, nice skinz... Did you design em?

I heard you broke something else lately?

I think I need to cringe more when you drive.

with the Maxamp 1100 3s there is plenty of room. tiny bit of rub at servo. I need a wider offset front rim.

My wheels are 1" wide. Nova DD foams. The arrows, are just for a-b direction. What the difference is im not sure. From what i have read, its just personal preferance. If any body knows the differance, i would like to know also?

A direction seems to get a little more traction than B, but I've been running B for a while and didn't notice much difference. I think I will turn them back to A direction for the comp on sunday.
