Schumacher KF

[tonydevon]

haha my poor wife, I came home from Mendip and she looked at me funny, then said, oh damn you smiling, I know what that means LOL, I had a chat and promised I would do things on the cheap, find a 2nd hand car £100-£150 etc etc

so last night I gently dropped in that I wanted a different one, £260 plus probably another £40 for the ball diff, hmmm she says thats £300!!! damn she can do her maths, why did I have to marry a clever one

I do really hate Ebay though, just as I think Im sure about something I see an SV2 cheap, or something else and I start to wonder......

going to leave the car kit till last, maybe once the B5 and B5m comes out, the prices for the KF might come down a bit to compete??

got heaps of other things to buy anyway, good thing is that I got a potential buyer for one of my guns, that will let me go have a spending spree for the weekend

Reading your threads I would say having got both the SV2 and KF you need to go straight to the KF.
It is a lovely piece of kit.
I'm travelling down to Weston Super Mare next weekend for a Rally a friend from Newton Abbot is taking part in. How far is Mendips RC track from Brean and is there any action taking place there that weekend?

I know how hard it is with deciding on all these big boys toys as I saw a Beretta 692 the other week and although I have a 682 Gold E I want one .
We must have two very good wife's

If you are down for the Rally at Brean on the weekend of the 25th unfortuantly there is no racing at Mendip and yes its only about 10mins from where the rally is.

That's not good news what a shame.

I used to live in Torquay and have family in that area so when we come down later in the year I would like to race at the Torbay club in Barton Torquay.
What days do they normally run there?

Ran my KF in anger for the first time on Sunday, turn in is brilliant. Raising the hubs, lengthening the front links and flipping the wishbones is a good place to start, it's incredibly twitchy with the kit setup.

Adding 4mm of spacing between the radius arms and the centre track rod, and the same 4mm under the hub carrier ball joint, is supposed to calm the steering a little.
