Well here`s a new 2wd project.
RB5 front and 501 x are agein used as main plattforms.

Have made some easy solutins just to get the car ready for testing.
If it works, i will make the parts more professionally, and the electrics will be installed nicer.

The car is ment for racing indoor on carpet. But also on astro/ grass tracks. On dirt this kind of car wont work.
Hopefully if it sunny tomorrow, I will test it at my local grasstrack

Had my first go with the car today. Track was wet and the grass fairly high, so the car wasn`t able to show it`s full potential because of the conditions. Rear end was quite loose in the wet sections.
Some areas had dried up and there i could really push it hard, especially out of corners.
It feels moore direct than the first verson i made, and because of a slightly shorter wheelbase it can be driven tighter.

Airtime was awsome. It jumps with a slight nose down attitude, and is very responsive to throttle control. Also i could be harder on throttle into jumps without bottoming out and loosing control.

If the weather stays like this i will have better trackconditions tomorrow for a new test.
