Default Summer shakedowns

Dunno about the rest of you chaps but I've been enjoying this weather!
The ZX-R had a good thrashing in the park last night.
Just wish we had good weather all year so we could race on dirt.
Btw, my local track Westmill, Herts has a full grid of RC10's now. We're already scheduled for the last two summer rounds and then the full winter series

The lipo's are held in by my bespoke lipo trays available from Fibrelyte.

Wow, she looks absolutely mint, and all that CF looks great. The lipo holders are simple but look great and no Velcro needed I'm guessing?

Cheers pal!
That's only cos she is. New build last year and only used once. The lipo holder I designed is basically a 'T' shaped piece of CF which is screwed through the battery posts. (Acts as the plastic spacer too) and then used the top plate with a ally post to hold them in.

Once Henrik get LAW-12 for me!!, you can all see my collection on our 'no braggin rights' thread.

Nice, clever idea and will try. If you need more weight then my one will be better suited. Still i never thought of that and may use with my tub when its made. Thumbs up for a great design.

Do you want me to pull the LiPo's out now and take some better pics for you?
