Off Road Wars:
So off road wars was the next meeting with the car.
The car went to the meeting as per above but the only change was to try out the BB shocks, went with the following set up:
2 x 1.7mm front pistons, 55wt oil, 2 mm internal limiters
3 x 1.7mm rear pistons 35wt oil
Springs were:
Dark Red
Black Rear
The car seemed to go ok on the BB set up above but felt a little dull and dead on track (maybe I needed to give is some more throttle!), the SB shocks seemed to suit the me better so after round one on they went and have stayed there ever since!
I'll do some more testing on the BB shocks outside and get feedback from some other DARC users once there are some more out in the market.
The meeting went well with no major breakages or failures, the only weak link was me on the sticks!
I was well happy with the car and the way it drove with lots of nice compliments from fellow racers trackside.
In the end I qual in the G final in 10th and got up to 5th, so not bad for me!
The car is so good I said to a fellow 410 owner, 'it feels like cheating using the DARC!' (he is now on the waiting list! lol)
