501 first run first win
 
Drove my 501XWE this weekend in the first round of the swedish national
it was a super slipery track and lithle bumpy

The corner speed in the car was just amazing and soo eazy to drive.
it not often you go from test drive in the garage on thursday night at 2am
to a win with a totaly brand new car.

The 501 is just amasing from what i have say from the first week end

I will post more pictures of the car later today in my blog

Well done Daniel! are you going to post your setup? Will you stick with the Losi shocks on the car or was that just until you find a setup that works on the kit shocks?

Well done, keep up the great work!!

Do us all a favour as well. Any issues or changes that you have done or come across when racing, post with the solution, as quite a few of us here have just got one and havent had a chance to race, so would prefer to go out there with all the problems iron out before hand.

Me I have heat shrink around the pins on the UJs to stop the pins coming out.

Congratdulations!!

Did you have to race any preds at all?
I have, and I still beileve I can beat a pred with this japan model chassis.

Odd, at the ifmar worlds race a few 501x's were seen, but yet
no preds showed up. I think the preds are scared of this chassis......lol

Northy 16-05-2008 03:53 PM
