*puts Paul his spam list* from now on I'll get a notification that you said or wrote something. I'll then have a choice; one dispose of what you said or wrote, or process what you just said or wrote.

Be warned though, previous experience now tells me that processing you is about as important as processing an insurace salesman cold caller.

Ooh that's harsh.

Still think it's boring though.

We are testing to see if sensorless 12t is close too with zero timing.

And; drive slowly, wear a cap, display hand signals when cornering, walk in front of the car with a red flag, etc etc

Slow, steady, sideways and needing decent throttle control. I find it fun Join Lee, with enough of us running stock spec it'll be more fun.

*ping* anyway, I think Paul has said something.

Ah, slight issue, I might be leaving the buggy until next week as after too much bolly I don't think the soldering iron is a good idea! But on the upside I do have a new t-shirt....... Might wear it on Friday

Great, it worked! We were very close

Fun class, I can't believe more people are not choosing to have off road sideways fun

I think I may've figured why my buggy broke last night...... I had to spin the tyred for such a ridiculous ammount of time to get them to grip that I must've stripped the idler gears by over stressing them... found it quite difficult racing in the slower heat too as other people using minipins tend to take diffrent lines through the corners...

I had to set up my buggy differently to cope with the no grip rear tyres. Once done it isn't a massive problem, 4 wheel drifts round turns, yay!!!... Both me and Dave made the A-main, lol... Sorry about getting in everyone's way
