Default New photos of the latest Slim4 prototypes

I have attached a few photos of the latest version of the Slim4 4wd we are developing, so far the car has run well and seems to be very strong I should be at Stotfold next weekend so if anybody wants to have a closer look give me a shout.

Hi Paul, yes it is, the milled area holds the cells very well so there is not any need for any major carbon to stop the cells moving about, just only to stop them lifting out of the slots.

It really begs for a slim shell to go with it, the chassis looks amazing.

Yes will be at Stotfold this sunday, it will be nice to goto a circuit and not start from scratch on setups

I have another development car in the works with a major redesign of the chassis and rear end, but that is more of a test bed, the car's in the photos are actual race car's we are running

A slim shell umm, maybe in the the future, i want to get the car 100% sorted first.
