Default First adventure on foams

This week was alwats going to a bit of an exploratory meeting, being the first time I finalky got riund to putting the foams on. Not an expeeience I am hoping to repeat too soon!

Didn't get off to a good start. In case anyone was wondering what the horrendous screeching noise was, yes that was me!

A screw on my too deck came loose so I stripped the spur, can't believe how much noise it made.

Thanks to Wes (I think) for the loan of a replacement, so i could at least race.

Well on to the foams. First go in the second heat and frankly they felt awful, back end all over the place. Long story, every race they got better and i got more used to driving them.

Conclusion after 2 heats and a final (so very early days). Definately quicker, can keep power on much more, but crashed more and found it more difficult to be consistent.
