That looks ace Gui - especially the teeth!
From Santa I've got a JPS lotus shell and a new servo. Problem is they are from the "mail order" santa service and haven't arrived yet.

Mardave looks ace, are you going to run it Friday? If you are I'll bring mine along buddy
Did you shave the front wings due to tyre rub? What spec Contact foams do you have fitted? What motor and ESC did you shot for in the end? Scott

i will do scott,
okay okay the chassis may be run once just to keep you chaps happy but the body will not be used for racing, it would break me spending around 16 hours on a body just for it to get wrecked in the first turn its all done now though... just awaiting the hop up drive belt

Cheers guys and yes, I'll be racing the Mardave on Friday. Properly too, I won't take the TL01 as a spare just so I can switch to that when the Dave doesn't work.
I may be tempting fate, but if it is really awful I guess I'll just pack up in a rage and go home PS: Martin, that rocks! PPS: Santa also brought me one of these Protoform shells: And one of these Tamiya beauties: More likely than not the Camaro will be blue (Sunoco inspired perhaps?) and the Ferrari red. |

Im taking the FF03 and Mardave for the Clubman, but I have faith in the Mardave now ... Im considering booking in for the tourers as well so I can try the TT02 Scott.

hehe, do it If the tourers were sticking to the rules and running 13.5T I would consider running there occasionally

AGH! Will be using NiMHs with the Mardave, my saddle packs just blew up one of my cheap ESCs. Attempted to fix it and it "works", but the motor rolls when the ESC beeps and thus I haven't got much confidence in it :-/

Only drivers running to the rules will receive points, i.e. Tc with rubber tires, 13.5 motor and zero timing or blinky.

Points or not huge straight line speed disparity is not something I am too keen on when running a fragile car.

Is the blinky or zero timing a new rule? |

I have a 13.5 motor in mine with a stage 1 fast gear set .. I don't want it to be to quick, it may fall apart after all its only a £80 tub chassis.
My only concern is being rammed up the derriere by the 7.5t lads Not that i'm concerned because I don't cheat, but how will you tell if they are not running to the rules without scutineering the cars and checking? Scott.

Why is it ruined and what would you do to fix it? Serious question.

Is it broken? From what I can see on an average week there are only a handful of drivers ....
Where have the rest vacated too? I don't have a problem with being slower than the rest, I have learned the only person your racing really is yourself, for lap times - yielding to faster cars is sensible, but the fact remains a 'hyper' car is very likely to come into contact with a 13.5 powered car on the straight. A few of the really, really fast cars in that class seem really unpredictable as well, so even if you did try and yield a collision is still likely. So as regards to fixing it if it is indeed broken - .... "enforce the rules if possible" If not, let the class be outlaw and free for all, I can't see why anybody would want to run a class where there are not any rules personally, and most drivers would vacate a class where the rules are being broken and cheating exists ... hang on, how many drivers have been racing touring recently?

Tbh the fastest cars on track are running the correct motor. A couple of lads were running 10.5, I believe they have changed them now.
