Lee Martin at Euros 2013
Must say, I was really inspired and impressed by Lee Martin at the Euros.
He´s 4th qualification run in 4WD was almost 2 sec faster than the second fastest driver (Hupo). He was 7 seconds faster than Bayer and 3 sec faster than Jörn. Really sorry for him that he did´nt win. He really deserved to win. I guess you have seen that the 511 is still alive and there are more to come... Source: rcracing.tv "Lee told us he went with the 511X because it’s smoother to drive and has a suspension more to his taste than the 502X, going over the bumps much better, which makes it his preferred car. Lee is running a totally new prototype chassis layout which follows on from Tamiya’s testing at the worlds warm up race just a few weeks ago… At the time of publishing we still hadn’t received the green light from Japan to publish… so, we’re showing you as much as we’re allowed!" |

lee was quite unsporting in the A main first leg, he clipped Martin Bayers rear wheel causing him to roll and immediately went through on first and didnt wait.

[frustration mode] If only we could buy the 511, this would all be great news.[/frustration mode]

So there's going to be an 'upgrade' to the upgrade kit?
We still can't get spares for the first one. |

I cant see the logik in allowing Lee to continue racing the 511 if its no longer being made or is available.

Maybe it's simply the original 511 with TA06 39T metal gear diffs and BB's?! |

Lee,
Can you post the setups (TRF201 and TRF511) from the Euros? Or can you tell me the used oil weight in diffs and BB shocks? Thanks in advance. |
