The lock isn't brilliant, but the whole idea of the car is not to let it slow to a crawl. Remember, with the motor and cells down the centreline, there is more weight forward compared to most. I whizzed mine around a tight grass track yesterday and whilst it was still moving, produced LOTS of steering just if I crashed, turning around was difficult.

It may only need a little dremmeling of parts, also, the stock configuration gives a lot of toe-out which in fact makes the outer wheel in a turn have less lock to.

For those who are interested, I have emailed RW Racing in a hope that he could create a conversion layshaft to allow the use of a B4 slipper assembly, I think the easiest way would be to actualy have a new layshaft gear cut and then pinned to the layshft I think, if there is enough room.
