pan cars
This has to be one of the greatest sections on here, the ideas and the workmanship is always awesome, thought id share a couple of ideas i worked on the first was my R5 GT10, i wasnt overly keen on relying on cell tape, made it a very tedious job changing lipo's especially on smaller meetings, so set to work on a plan, also the battery configuration made it a little wallowy, mainly when trying to clip apex's carrying speed, also a fellow racer had 2 chassis destroyed along with 2 lipo's by the same bloke at 2 meetings so wanted to beef up the side pivot arms, also fitted in-line steering and the R5.1 rear pod, all this gave such a positive feel, could drive at speed without any worry of any surprises.

go on, get a tyrrell body made for that one!!
