Interested in Mardave racing

[Chris Elworthy]

Hi Lads,

I'm interested in racing Mardaves at your club throughout the winter so am after a little information on your club regulations. I have an old Mardave from around 8 years ago with the solid rear axle that i plan to use, do you allow the use of the diff at club meetings?
As for power, i still have a silver can motor and a few brushed speedo's (a MTroniks Digi Sprint and a LRP V7.1) Will these speedos work well with a 1s Orion 5500 90c Lipo?
If allowed at the club and I was to change which brushless setup would you recommend? are there regulations on the price of these units as in the national series?
And finally, what upgrades to the original chassis would you recommend? the car is already ballraced but i understand i would need a Lipo battery box, is this a specific Mardave item or a customised 4 cell battery box?

Things appear to have moved on a lot in the last 6 years since I raced so apologies for the volume of questions. I just want as much information as possible so I can be fairly competitive from the off.

All help would be much appriciated.

Hopefully see you soon,

Chris
