Yeah white Venoms, work well on carpet, not street here im afraid, not as consistent as a pin, but we run them as a control to save the carpet for TC cars.

Mate i was dreading my first time out with mine, but it surprised me, was quick all night save for a bit of grip roll, which adding 4mm of spacers in the front dampers soon tamed, great car!

Looks great mate .

Bit of advice , don't use the new shell on sat , it will get f--ked .

There are a lot of bad drivers out there who don't give a f--k .

Especially when your in the bottom heat .

It's up to you tho .

Lot of bad drivers at seaham tool, I drag em to my level! Lol.
Shells gonna get beat up whatever I do, so I'll probably just run it. Can always get Stu to do another, he loved painting it !

Nice, looks great. Give us a better shot of the wing please.

Good luck with the black wheels, they make it awful to see which way you are pointing.

Here's the wing.
Neal, tried this week to get some green wheels, but failed miserably. Will see how I get on. Got some yellows if all else fails.
