Just to let you all know I made the A Main yesterday. Qualified 7th and the only thing I was doing was drilling pistons out. I am getting there but it still needs some work.
This does show that the car is quick enough to keep up the the top.
I did go through a few crown gears which I think may change very soon.

Other than that it was good.

I do have to say, WELL DOne to Rob Jacques(?) on winning the C Main with the 2wd. Looked good all day.

Well done Stu (and Rob!!!) - great to see what these cars are capable of in the right hands.

Re the Crown Gears, how many shims are you using? I have 3 on the rear and 1 on the front and they seem to be holding now.

Dave, please can you order me some more shims just in case (12 x 10 x 0.2mm) - cheers!

Well done stu. Your car looked good all day and a big thanks for all your help with set up on my cars. After the disappointment of being knocked out of the B in the last round with my 2wd car, I then made life difficult for myself by almost missing the start of my final (Was talking and didn't realise I was on :blush:) so I had to start from the back of the grid. The Xpro was excellent in the final, easy to drive which is something you need when working your way through a pack of cars.

I was very happy with my C final placement with the Xpro4 to considering it hadn't turned a wheel before practice. I think with a bit of set-up time these cars are going to be great. Roll on the players meeting :thumbsup:

I have 4 in the front and it is still stripping. I build it with it binding slightly. I was talking to Shaun this morning and it maybe my gearbox housing also which I didnt think about yesterday.
