I've seen some tracks with virtical turns!!! The site sponsor shumacher, witch makes the beautiful Cat SX that I'm waiting to recieve, would be more of a contender.Thats not to say I've thought thae same way but I don't think it realistic to compete with the lazer, as good as I think it is. Maybe its time to create a vintage division.
I agree, a vintage season would be perfect but the Lazer cars can handle the power, heck mine was one of the fastest in a straight line, just that it wouldnt go round the corners as fast. The ZXS is not an easy car to set up and I do not like high riding buggies so kindof annoyed Dan Greenwood when I couldnt drive it that well. Still he was correct but didnt know that its hard to set up especially to my style of driving. Not as easy to dial in like the B44 or Cat SX (Kevin Moores was stunning).

Im now on for getting a new car but need to sell my new unused prototype (im keeping my race buggy) but the going rate for this one is going to be high £800 to whoevers door for a signature as its one of the rarest out there. Comes of course with a new uncut shell and undertray (the original Kyosho ones).

Still I enjoyed myself a lot. 2wd was dialed by the final so was a bit late but boy did it shift in that final. Still thats going to be sold as well and looks great with my dragon shell on it.
