Go for the VRX - Heres a link to one, http://demonpowerproducts.co.uk/prod...oducts_id=3639

Comes with the hop-ups needed like, track rods for the steering instead of the 'bent wires', and bearings instead of bushes, countersunk chassis, etc. the spec is on the link.

I have the VRX and my friend has the caterham, which is the basic kit just a little different, and I am glad I choose the VRX over the hot rod / Caterham, as the spec is so much better.

Hi

Yeah, I've certainly felt abit tempted by the old mardaves over the past week or so, certainly seems a v affordable way of racing...seems surprisingly though that there's not a mardave section on here

Sounds a good idea - I love mardaves and raced them a fair bit - even winning the batley championship

We raced on t27 rubber tyres, not sure what most clubs use?

Here's my old car, now sadly gone

im currently using pink soft rears and 48's front with 1/3rd addy on front and lash it on rear :-) 205 shell,i use a diff but use it locked up, only so i can use 48dp gearing. so much smoother!! my elecs are 1s lipos, gm120 esc and sp v3 10.5 motor :-)
