I thought the track was great, nothing on there really difficult but if you lost concentration it was easy to crash.

Thanks for those yellow springs Chris, i think they might be cursed though as i broke 2 wishbones with them on. lol :rolleyes:

Your welcome Rob, I did spot the breakages, I'll have the springs exorcismed before next use ;)

as most have said great day racing (disappointing end for me :mad::D) and AWESOME race matt, never seen you drive better well done

WELL DONE MATT! never seen you drive so well, the track was great and very well thought out, I enjoyed the day very much despite loosing my concentration in both the 2wd and 4wd finals after leading them for abut half the races then just totally lost it haha ohwell I know i can do better, I was so tired by the finals lol :D Sorry i couldn't stay to help clear the track away, was forced to go home...:( Well done to everyone today and thanks for all the the support from race control, Scrutineers, Refs, track repair and anyone else i've missed out haha:D thanks to all for a great day

That was why I have gone back to sticks. Much easier for me to drive with them.
;)

as everyone else has said great track and well done to york club for a great meeting :)

Maybe for you, but i cant drive for nout with sticks, its personal opinion.

I'll give it a go holding it normally for sure, would take me a while to even get close to the level i am now, never mind any better :p

how do u hold the transmitter then

With the throttle in your right hand then then tilt if forward and steer with the left hand.

Ye, what Chris said, hold it n right hand, sort of lean it over and steer with left, only way i can drive but i suppose it could be holding me back so i might be able to improve from correcting it.

Hey Josh, it looked to me like you knew exactly where you wanted the car to go, but you responded slowly and held steering on too long for corners. You can't be getting complete control as it seems you know where the car should be going, its just not going there.

When i hold a tranny, within a few corners of the race starting I forget I am holding it, the thumbs move and the car goes & I just think about where I want it to go. Second nature.

Here's a vid of Jimmy's Burga going round:

The big double in front of the rostrum doesn't look that big on the vid though

G

I did feel like i was driving like an idiot yesterday mind :eh?: im hoping that i can improve on that, if not then i will have to try and convert to holding it the old fashioned way :D its all a learning curve and trial and error for me.

did ya get any good pics of my car jimmy? or josh?
