I qualified 10th in the C which i wasnt happy with but the day hadnt gone to well so hey... and i could only improve on 10th

The car generated a little bit of interest with a few people asking about it and commenting on it, was nice to have people being positive about the car!

So raced it in the final with nothing to lose, it was really good! a little bit understeery on the front, could of done with some new front tires and a touch of weight under the servo but other than that not bad!

I finished 6th and think i had the 3rd fastest lap..

Really impressed with the car, going to get some CAD drawings done and try an aluminium chassis, possibly stainless
If you make that it will be TOO stiff and the car will suffer. Need a bit of flex like the B-Max/plastic chassic on B4.
