Got to try Balders rango beasty out with working electrics now the setup is getting closer...

44.1 im afraid...not a centro but just as sexy:D We have decided to leave our c4.1's unopened in the boxes(when they arrive that is!)and if Owen's x6 ceases to dominate then build his!..I have seen and almost got caught up in the hype before(Cougar....b4.1....losi..all with various chassis mods and great expense) but when it comes down to it the quickest 4 drivers at caldi over the last few weeks have all driven O's x6 and said its the best car!!
Dont get me wrong im dead excited to get the centro but unless its unbeatable it'l stay in the box:)

lol...don't blame you Dave...

I think the real truth is that it's drivers that are fast, not cars! Your thumbs are by far the biggest factor, the car and setup are also factors, but def not the biggest ones!

That said, I do also think that you have to like the car your driving, and that just that thought alone will make you drive it better!

I've ordered a C4.1 not because I think I'll go any faster with it particularly (although it would be nice of course!), but because I've always wanted an S2...and it's as close as I'll get :-) I just like the design of it and want one!

Pretty loathed to sell the X6 myself to be honest...I still like that too...but just wish it was a little slimmer/more compact in design! But that's just me being a tart! :blush:

Hence my bit of fascination with the Durango as well to be fair...love the engineering and design of it...but yet to prove if I actually like the reality of how it drives so far, but setup is getting closer with Mike's now, which is proving to be good fun.

I do reckon all cars can be adapted to your style to some degree, just about finding a balance that you like driving...that's my new theory anyway...:thumbsup:

Having driven Yardy's prototype in anger at the F2's I can be sure you will be impressed by the Centro. :thumbsup:
(Ignore my B final result :blush: as had slipper setting issues in qual. But the pace was great in the final considering picked up car on day with different radio & motor/speedo combo than I am used to. Was amazed at how much you could push the car & it just came back for more. :thumbsup:)

Itching to get hold of mine too so will bring it down as soon as I do. Anyone welcome to try it. :)

yes great night!!!!

starting to get the cat 2000 together now. found the bits to get rid of one way bearing. I NEED FRONT BRAKES.

another change to the gearing and anti roll bars...

This car will beat the modern ones. If it doesn't I will have fun trying.:thumbsup:

I should also be pinned by vintage night.
