Managed to drive one battery yesterday. After moving the shorty LiPo almost completely to the rear, the car was absolutely planted.
We've got a mid to low-grip, slightly bumpy astroturf track that had experienced spells of rain and even hail in the course of the day - the joys of April! By the time I arrived in Troisdorf, the track was dry again. I ran kit set-up with yellow Schumacher minipins in the rear and staggers in the front. The 17.5 turn motor wasn't a big challenge for the car, but I've got to get used to small tyres again. Shocks are just plainly brilliant, the car was so smooth on the bumpy straight...
I've got a 13.5 motor coming, and I'm looking forward to giving the car a good try in the stock class at the regional in early May. There'll be probably some 17.5 turn fun racing in Helmond/NL next week, too.
