There to get the shell closer the the chassis

Tony

I actually like that idea. Not sure about the 5 feet long leads they're connected to though :thumbsup:

LONG WIRES !!!! @ Doddy

Yeah Phil, looking at them I will cut them down a little. :woot:

Was trying to keep the positive wire under the flexing brace.

Velcro
 

Hi Tony

Looks like you got some Velcro on the edge of your chassis ?

Have you created a tray or is it glued to the edge ?

Cheers

I always use Velcro across the complete chassis and shell to stop crap getting in.

The shell is quite a tight fit with the chassis, so I dremeled the black anodizing of the side and supper glued the Velcro on (very small amount of glue)

I also have the front body mount installed as this will help keep the body on LOL!!

IMO - You don't want to run a under tray ever as this opens a can of worms with regards to handling and ground clearance ect ect......

One tip I will give you guys is run button head screws in the rear rear AS block not counter sunk. This gives a small amount of clearance at the back if the car and helps to stop the chassis rubbing at the very back.

I can see what you're saying and totally agree it would save the chassis from wear. Will the button head screws not give uneven location of the toe block? On the otherhand the countersink will always put the screws to the center of the holes and thus always line the block up tru every time.

The chassis isn't exactly an expensive item, so I don't see the problem with leaving it as standard. If you're really worried, just slap on some chassis protector.

Totally agree on the velcro idea, thats what all the team guys did with the pre-release cars.

my finished centro with velcro sides
 

finished my centro last night after patiently building all week using 2 new kits.
made some side pods to secure shell works a treat:thumbsup:
just used some off cuts of lexan.
hope u guys like my efforts.:thumbsup:

Looking good Jamie, First run tonight?

Here is mine.
Weight is now at 1604gr (Perfect 35/65 weight distribution)

Not a bad looking car.

Looking good! :thumbsup:

Some nice K big bores on it, very cool!

OMG what a cool paintjob!!! :wub

Has anyone got a pic with a short losi lipo in?

Not exactly a work of art, not exactly inspiring colour scheme but only went for the black as temp quick fix to get it running and actually starting to really like it even though my 2 year old is convinced its the Batmobile!

Anyway part im most happy with is inside which i cant take credit for, Darren at DMS witnessed my original handiwork while in the shop and decided that it was inappropriate to let me run a BT connection box on wheels, immeadiatley confiscated said disgrace and returned it following day all pretty and organised, top man, thanks Darren!

Here's mine...won the E final at the MK GP with it :thumbsup:

Lovin the car :thumbsup:

Sharp looking C4.1 :thumbsup:

Who painted the shell?
Did you add weight in the car?

CHeers

Cheers :)

My brother painted the shell...he's just started painting...and is pretty bloomin handy at it if you ask me :woot:

For weight, it's got the GHEA B4 front bulkhead and cross brace, plus a couple of bits of lead under the steering linkage area as well, maybe another 25-30g (roughly) under there, oh and ran it with blue front springs as well. Felt nicely balanced to me!

Another nice looking C4.1 :)

Whos front tower is that, the MK one or the DMS one??

Cheers Mark, MK tower :D

After a good punt ya bugger :)

I'm curious to see how the centro's got on at Leominster? Ben/Westwood?

centro a go go :)
 

:thumbsup::thumbsup::drool: looks brilliant Ben

To be fair they were awesome, I think the final was Westwood, Fletch, Me in the end. Were pretty much on the pace from the very start.... Lukes was easier to drive (maybe a little slower) and I think that paid off in the final. Awesome first impression though :)

My favourite colours there dude. Very nice :thumbsup:

Took me a while to get used to 2WD again, had some heavy head on crashes and no bends :) managed to get the only 18 lapper of the night.
