Talking CR2 takes 1st National win
Well done to Danny and Andy for getting two CR2's into the A final at Stotfold from memory danny tq'd two rounds plus a 3rd in round, and in the finals 2 leg wins and a 3rd i think but could be wrong to take the win. Andy Griff made his 1st ever appearance in a A final just sneaking in at 10th. Both guys were using the LHD version of the CR2 with Losi speedo's in reverse rotor mode.

Your right with the round scoring and final places JC.

Thanks for the message, and a special thanks to JC for giving me the chance to race this car. I'll post a detailed setup when i have a closer look at my car know whats what.

Congrats Griff, if my car looked like yours did going round then i'm a happy man.

Lets hope this can continue

Thanks again

was talking to Jonathan at the weekend about which speedos allow you to do the revers direct thing, it seems the new range of speed passion will do it, take a look and let me no what you lot think,LINK
I'm thinking the bit were it says motor rotation ccw will give you the option to go cw as well, has anyone tried this yet and can someone confirm,??

It is greyed out currently, so whether it is an option that will be enabled at a later date, with a firmware update??

I know the latest firmware for the Tekin RS Pro has a reverse rotation option too.

The Novak SLYDR's also allow you to run the motor in reverse

A few people have asked me if you can post your setup from the weekend, so dig out the car and get its setup posted

I think RHR will be another interesting national as the CR2 does seem good around there as well.

Jonathan that is an understatement!!

I've raced my CAT against Danny around there and although I out qualified him he did beat me in the final!!

Looks like Griff will beat me in the Nationals now....!!

Bring on the F2's!
