My X11

[njc11]

Just recently bought an X11.. (Frank Noels to be exact along with all his gear!) i have also just got a B4 RC10..

Im hopeing to race at Bury next weekend.. weather permitting!

Used to race years ago and just getting back into it again after about 17years. Joined the BRCA so hopefully be doing the rounds!

Spoke to the lad running a pred at Southport GP last week.. looked to be going well.. he had the new shocks on which i have just ordered for mine tonight..

One question... servo position.. i notice some of you have the servo stood up?? (and using a very similar looking speedo to my LRP i couldnt squeeze in!!! Nosram??) Mines lay flat and so struggled to put my LRP TC Spec Sphere in, so ended up putting that in my B4 and bought a LRP Sphere Comp speedo.. Im now happy with the way it looks very neat and tidy which always helps.. I had to trim the heat sink down on the speedo so the body now fits perfect. (I have a the small Spektrum receiver and a digital Associated servo & will be using an AMBrc personal transponder) So whats involved with changing the position of the servo, should i feel the need to swap speedos over?

Im running a brushless set up Vector 5.5 turn.. with a 72 spur and a 16 tooth pinion 10.98 ratio... What sort of motors / ratios are people using to good effect? Also is there a one way set up for the pred? if so is it worth getting to improve the car still further?

I havent got my car with me, and looking at some pred pics on here,im thinking, does mine have a slipper clutch in it?? Do they come as standard or is it an aftermarket add on?

Any other things i should know about? like what spares i should carry with me etc

I'll get some pics posted up.. it will be tomorrow now.

Meant to ask.. Whos the person / company to use for doing really good quality paint jobs? Want one doing for RC10 and Pred to match!!

Cheers
