I thought the f1 looked pretty good on the tighter track last week. Have tham make an oval mate then you can call it an Indy car :lol:. Plus 1 on the tape quality stuff.

:thumbsup: That's actually a BRILLIANT idea :D

Banking, spools, staggered tyres and everything. I'd love to do it.

Banked oval? Hell yes:thumbsup:

You could even put buggy tyres on one side only so the car naturally goes in circles - would love to see it going down the straight though:woot:

Sham-car would have no problem since the torque-steer makes it want to go right all the time. Knowing my luck though, Dave will make us run anti-clockwise:p:lol:

Well it is Indycar! Not banger racing... So anti-clockwise is the way.

Rob - fair point, but as you know I've been there, done that (& more), all in the pre-kids days, but now I do like to at least have dinner with them before going out on a Fri eve. Hence why I'm not always there in time to set out the track.

Not moaning, just requesting and hoping someone's listening. I think we should all be able to share thoughts & give feedback within the club shouldn't we?

By the way - the new tape is much better! :)

Well we could go back to the original designs I suppose. Some of those are quite flowing. I reckon Mr Ken has a corner fetish :D

Oh and GT12 for me please Dave!

corner fetish :lol::lol:

just wanted to make use of all the carpet, the older designs are in the same bag.

i liked the space down the side of the main str8 near the wall, made it a little safer for marshals :)
....

Oh and GT12 for me please Dave! your in m8 :)

get the cheap £50 core speedo rob,it does lack the grunt out the corners that the top spec ones have and does sometimes have a mind of its own:lol:

My core esc has been faultless, tbh there are quite a few used at our club just depends who's driving and defo a high c rated battery to get the most out of them. Has any got a high c rated saddle I could try, I currently use 30c.
