After some testing up the track the weight distrubution has been altered to get it nearer the centre and rear. kit runs stick pack transverse. I have modded by using t4 saddle braces and located saddle packs rearward in chassis and to centralise weight.
Took final leg of A final at Coventry on the dirt. Got a great balance by adjusting roll centres on the day. Ran proline holeshots m3.
qualified 4th overall at Robin Hood Raceway with more camber link adjustments making the difference. Was scuppered in 2nd leg of A finals with centre diff failure to rear drive. Got a hard impact just before failure so put down to impact damage. Other diffs have been bulletproof otherwise.
Powered by team orion r8 pro with tekin 4000kv 4 pole.
Slightly under geared as topped out early on straight at RHR long straight but felt just right everywhere else. Watch this space.
After running a desc410r for 3 years, this vehicle is on money already.:thumbsup:

Clicky on link to see chassis weight distribution. Converted to saddle pack with T4 buggy cell bracketry.
Alloy bulkheads fitted now along with alloy 10deg front hub carriers.
Going to last round at A1 this weekend to see if other mods work.....:confused::(:p
