hi sorry for the delay....

rears are tru-d to 48mm at the mo .. i take them down to 46 an then bin them .. i round the inner and outer edge of the tyre with sand paper too... and depending on grip add super glue to outer tyre wall

One of mine from a recent meeting - probably frowned upon by the Mardave purists for being used for Banger Racing - but reasonably modified under the shell to make it handle better and hit harder

Tyres - Jap Meds and 46's - no fancy additives. G2 motor and 4300 cells. Modified top deck and chassis bracing. As long as it's quick enough to run someone in before they do it to me I'm happy.

Nuthin wrong with banger racing

so that's

46 = 45.42mmpr
48 = 47.39mmpr

just waiting till Santa's been then there's some 2011 models coming out in January

my cobra as i use it now

[Miggers]

Well modified from the standard I'm afraid...

Traxxas shocks on the back,Option House Golds on the front,period Parma Cyclone Stock 27 turn motor,
period Futaba Attack R radio gear,HiTech SP1500 ESC,modified rear suspension mount,strut brace,
fully ballraced gear box,home made LWB chassis,home made undertray.

The body and wing is an Associated RC10B3 job nabbed from E-Bay for a fiver due to the fact that
Meteor LWB shells are nigh on unobtainable.

Bear in mind though,this is how it looked two years ago.....













I'll have to pilfer the lad's camera and do some pics of it now.

Well,here it is again after it's last re-build.
It now sits on a Cobra chassis and has a complete Cobra front end on it.





more of a Cobeor than a Meteor now though.

I'd like to change the wheels(some CML/JC Racing 5 spokes) and I need to get my mitts on 3mm L/H
and 3mm R/H die nuts to make my own turnbuckles for it.
I spied a sheet of aluminium at work just before we broke up for the
holidays,so I reckon next up will be a set of ally suspension mounts
