Vinny a narrower track will actually give you more grip but can be unstable and break away. Just bear in mind that a wider car does not always give you more grip

Alex: its good to see you trying stuff and thinking, keep it up you might come accross something really good, Also is that your own wing on the b4?

thanks lee, not that one, i had my first prototype on for the second race (as i didnt enter the first due to bulkhead brakages) but it shattered when i flipped my buggy. im planning on buying some thinner lexan propper 0.75 stuff so it bends and then i should be able to sell them.

alex.
