Default Testing

Well the first real outing on a race track has had good results.
1. It does jump like the FS, corrections in the air are very easy and controlled. Better than an RB5 - Yes.
2. In the hair pins instead of a quick, stop, rotate and power out it would just drive and then I could get on the power early. Better? Dont know. Didn't seem to gain any real time advantage. Maybe more consistant?

3. Under hard acceleration it would drift slowly and controlled, like the FS. The RB5 would step out once the tyres broke away. This tends to let go earlier, but more controlled. Better? It is for me, more like driving a 4WD.
Over the bumps its seems alot faster, more stable and without the front end pitching in the air.

All in all it was a possitive result, and doubled by the fact that our local track is medium to low grip, and quite rough and rutted.

Can't wait to let it rip on a high grip track.
