Ran mine for only the second time last night at the Coventry meet.
I do not particularly like the transfer gear & pinion mesh system - which was backed up by me stripping the transfer gear yesterday! I cannot seem to be able to get to the lower motor mount screw when its all bolted together - so time for modifications i think!
After a 15minute wait for Concept Racing to turn up and sell me a new one I was back under way.
I still dont have any spring options so getting the setup right is tricky. Its a bumpy track and I need get some time to build the shocks to suit.
I also managed to snap the small triangle transmition brace in the final heat - however it has to be said in some on the heats I was trying slightly too hard.
In the final I qualified third, got into second fairly quickly and was holding onto the leader until i made a mistake. My bodge on the transmition brace wasn't working too well with the handling all over the place, however i was definately putting in some quick laptimes.
Next week I should have springs, tyres with some tread on and an ally transmition brace. Also the hydra drive may be ready to use. So will be able to get it working properly I hope.
