dom was suicidal

The best advise i can give you is not to over analize the situation.
Concentrate on what was wrong with your car/setup or driving and try to better yourself at the next meeting rather than worrying about who came first and last.
Have a chat to Phil Sleigh....he is one of the most knowledgable people when it comes to XX-4's......he can give you advise on your overheating problems

Dom was only suicidal because nobody was spending money with him :wtf:

Phil....you needed to be there to see the fun we had with the driver changeovers in the final.
Me and bert are doing the 24 hour at le mans next year :wtf:

Sounds good, but who do I give the championship points to for the result???? :p

Split them...it was a team effort ;)

It was poo at the weekend with all my problems i onlt finished one race. And that mean the chance of my getting ni the inddor finals is very very slim:(

Maybe i should have done 2wd and done better in that meaning more likely qualifying for the inddor finals.:eh?:

But oh well life goes on I dont know what to do wit this moto probelem knowone else seems to have any problems. Why does it have to be me.

But i love the way it feels and the way it handels it was amazing but i should have proberly run the cut silver instead of the green. And it was pretty ballistic down the straighy.

I understand y the 19 got hot but not the 14 as it was geared right.

A

to be honest ash the track was aweful it had no flow:)

Tight indoor tracks always overheat motors regardless of car or driver...you just need to listen and learn a few tricks from the other losi drivers.
when you get the right gear ratio and shell cutouts sorted things will get better.
As i said in and earlier post....have a chat with Phil Sleigh via P.M....he is the best source of information on xx4's and will be more than happy to help a fellow losi driver.

I know a few people who drive losi's so i will have a chat with them. Phil has been a total star so far with the help he has given me with the indoor finals etc. And the advice he has given me on the xx4 and i dont like to pester people. But ill give the xx4 a run at oz of thursday as that isnt as tight and is a fast track so ill see if i have the same problem.

I can give you a few pointers (you may have already know this information)

1: If you have an very old xx4 you may need to mill the chassis out under the motor to give it a bit of air (if your car is one of the new worlds edition or has had a replacement LOSA9914 Low Center Gravity Chassis ...it is already done)

2: Get the hot weather shell ( LOSA8045 Hot Weather Body) this has air scoops you can cut out to get more airflow over the motor

3: Run the suggested ratios that the others on this site have put forward....it sounds like you were undergeared.

4: Try to drive in a "smooth manner" ie...try not to stab the throttle on and off hard going into and out of the bends as this can cause the motor to overheat.

You may know this stuff...but then again you may not.... hope this helps

Thanks for the help 2 and 4 where helpeful. As for 1 my xx4 is a brand new xx4 it was the first time it had ever been run properly also meaning its the first time i have ever driven a 4wd.

I just looked and that the shell i have. and i have all the scoops cut out.:eh?:
