Chris that's an awesome shell. I mean REALLY awesome shell!!!

Looking forward to it gents :) Stock buggy, may give the Mardave a run too, did a couple of thongs to it... That's to say a whole load of lead on it Traxxas style.

As for the name, thanks Martin :D I have others lined up for the next few tracks. lol

No.3 could be "equallacteral chainsaw"

Cheers for the comments. Here is the ebay link, quite a bargain:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BS10F03B-1...#ht_2445wt_904

Pre painted and arrived next day. It also comes in red and fits F103 nicely.

My only complaint is the cut lines down the side are too high and i therefore had to cut the wheel arches deeper and the front bumper higher, hence why it looks very low and leen!

Let's see what it looks like after 3 rounds and a final... I remember those Lotus wings...

Chris56 29-01-2014 04:29 PM

Should be ok - I used the Lotus nose cone and a non-brittle strip of plastic bolted to it in order to make the t-piece, which I have mounted the body posts onto. Feels quite strong and the body posts have plenty of flex in them.

I am sure with your engineering excellence it will all be just fine.....:lol:

Have you made sure the wheels are fixed on well?....:p

Dave Dodd 02-02-2014 11:56 PM

Okay so which circuit for Friday? A Gui design I think.
Would like one with a normal straight this week, plz

Road America has been chosen by quite an overwhelming vote already...

Chris56 03-02-2014 04:19 PM

Definitely need my 12t motor and foams for that track, oh yeh!

Just a thought: we have several designs now, all of which we should run at some point.

How about we alternate between tight and open tracks each week?

Last week was v tight and technical with no long straights, this week we do Road America which should be excellent for speed, next week one of the tighter tracks (#3?), week after Interlagos/Barcelona/Estoril?

Out of interest, how does one vote for a circuit layout?

Chris56 03-02-2014 05:38 PM

pm Gui/Martin, or simply leave a post here

Dave Dodd 04-02-2014 08:27 PM

Road America will be this week's track plan. :thumbsup:

David Smeaton 04-02-2014 09:17 PM

Nice track, lots of laps...............

cunawarit 05-02-2014 10:36 AM

I'm quite keen to try Oulu Mirror, if it was good enough for the EFRA European Championships it should be good enough for us on a Friday night :)

siddus74 07-02-2014 04:15 PM

Have fun tonight lads ...

Gits :cry:

Scott.

cunawarit 07-02-2014 05:48 PM
