Looks good are you racing this at Bedworth? Indoors or Outdoors? If you are using it outdors get the M Tronics as it is waterproof and programable. You can buy it with an 8000k motor. Dont know what the motor is like, I am about to try it just taken out my dynamite 9200kv so I can give the m-tronics 8000kv a go to see the difference.

[shoebox-airbrushing]

Yes im racing it at bedworth... will be there on wednesday... got the m-tronics 8000kv today... and the lipo is en route... will be here tomorrow

[Rick-J]

Should be very quick enjoy! Try it outdoors one sunday they go great on tarmac.

How much is entry... is it on this sunday ??

[Rick-J]

No racing this sunday its a week on sunday, the 23rd. Look at the Bedworth Website for the race dates, Tends to be every other week we race. Winter series is £7 for members I think but check with Bob. If you dont like the cold then the summer series starts in April. Could do with a few more Carisma's outdoors. Heat of five cars on sunday, not bad but more welcome. The track was slippy and good fun.

Do you bring your own pit table

[shoebox-airbrushing]

yesterdays racing was really good fun... had a few problems with my lipo hitting the cut-off on the speedo... all in all... i'm really impressed with the way the car drives... did pretty much nothing except put foams on it... and it handled straight away

First time out with the car you went briliantly especially since you were on sticks wwhen you normally race wheel radio.
Minor set up and getting used to a new class will see you pushing the top guys im sure.
