Default RB5 VEGA, anyone still running it???

Hi Guys
Just wondered if anyone out there was still running the RB 5 Vega?
I brought mine out of retirement last night & ran it at RHR, & have to say it was awesome! I was over a second a lap faster with it than my RB6 on the same tyres etc. mines the version 1 Vega with a WC RB5 front end.
I'm very tempted to get the version 2 LWB to try now.

Yup, Gen 2 and love it.... Nice to drive and the set up seems to work well at all tracks.

still love mine pete

swb s/bore shocks, b/bore springs indoors

currently running lwb and b/bores outdoors but not 100% convinced it's better

was good at our place over the wkd.

have a chassis you can run if you like

only takes 15min if you get your finger out

cheers Andy

Hi Andy
Never tried mine with small bores, might try them next time out then.
Yeah might try & get hold of the lwb chassis deffo would like to try one.
As for my back, not really still off work. Had to go to the doctors yesterday for more pain killers. Fed up with it now! Lol. Fingers crossed I'll be up to coming to your place on Saturday. Marshaling might be a challenge though! Lol
