Drat. I just noticed my wheelbase is now 1/4" over regulation. Time for some shorter rod ends.

After the alterations, I finally got to wheel it at this month's cANZ comp. What an improvement Results have not been posted yet, so no word on how I actually went. Which will be irrelevant, as I did not drive it to it's full potential but I'm sure I spanked one or two Losi CC's |

I brought it down to the scaler comp this weekend for driving Friday afternoon. Still in stock form but it's fun and still no CVD problems, and I was trying to break stuff ... I did take a rather nasty tumble and popped the right rear shock cap off, but everything else is doing fine. Can't wait to start experimenting with it. | |

Looking at the results, it was one LCC and two AX's in total, but I pointed out in course 1 of 3 due to the old saying "I can't brain today, I has the dumb" But, first drive in proper, I'm wrapped.

Well, a day or two too late for the comp, I have my Nova foams in the front. Man, what a difference, they should tighten the off camber turns up nicely.

Still trying to get our rules updated... Failing that, I'll run in our state titles in two weeks time and swap it over regardless and run without points if I have to... |
