I would certainly like to, but we need to work out the centre driveshaft sizes and see what 'fits' we use them 'backwards' in the S4.

Yeah I had a go today - even though the car was better I didnt drive as fast today... yesterday I was the fastest in my heat, today wasnt so good. the rear camber screws fell out which bent the shock tower mount... also I changed to a different size diff to make the car easier to drive after advise from Hupo, and the diff wouldnt stop slipping so right now I'm running Mike wests rear diff in my car.

I got a decent lap time in that last qualifier but it was hard to be consistent over the jumps - certainly Dave Church will never repeat his last result from today... and to set the record straight, dave actually took me out and then crashed - I crashed next to him after and got marshalled first which made me laugh like a hyena! haha

Loving the review so far jimmy its good to see tom doing so well and to see tricky performing well. Nice to show that losi are still very very competative.

Morning everybody. It was raining last night. It's not anymore but the track is wet and we changed morning practice from 2 to 3 minutes.

Putting laptimes from the practice online as well .. Track isn't that slow as you might see from the results.

Copter, could you tell us a little bit about what equipment you use for the web cam solution? We are considering setting up a similar solution. And since yours work very well we'd like to know how you did it. Do you pan & zoom from the PC?

Sound is great now! Also more than loud enough.

About the zooming and stuff. There will be dedicated camera man on the finals who will "film" the finals. Follow leading cars etc. I can try to follow some cars on the following heats if I have time while Scotty is speaking.

I'll tell you about the solution a bit later how it has been done etc. I'll be happy to guide how to build similar system and might even be able to offer some bandwidth for stream distribution for events.
