Default Euros good luck!

All that's going to the Euros, good luck!

I'm off on my holidays tomorrow morning so most likely won't give you all a second thought!

haha cheers for those kind words I am hopefully pitting with the mighty C final warrior 'Barnyard' so he can help me with my XXXCR - he already rang me tonight to tell me off for putting the non-dremeled chassis on.

I mean the battery tray business so you can move the cells forward - I've not driven a losi for 4 years or so, so it's all new to me is this moving cells about lark.

Not meant that way Jimmy... It's just not everyone runs that style of chassis now. The CR doesn't seem to need it in the same way the BK2 did.

When we get to lovely Finland, I can have a butchers at your CR and we can sort out a set-up. If all else fails we'll copy Tricky or Darren

didn't wanna make you feel thick just said it was easier to use the modd'd chassis than have to butcher it with a dremmel half way through cos you wont be able to change once its stickered up.
Also you dont have to run with the batts forward just space back if you dont want it.

Thinking about it Jimmy... I know where Ian is coming from on this, but... with the jumps in the Euros track I'd probably NOT run the dremeled chassis..

The reason being if you do the cells rest against the servo and in heavy impacts it has been know to snap the servo from it's mounts.

We can work on the setup easy enough on the practice day.
