haha your so keen to get that no1 spot hey, im ready to go again could have gone today but wasnt the right time and didnt have time to play, patience is half the battle.

 

 

I just want to break 80mph for now, even if it's exactly 80! Then I can start gunning for 90mph 😉

Those look the business 👍 they make the chassis look faster 😁Perfect colour scheme to go with the body as well.

Good luck tomorrow mate I’m looking forward to seeing what you get.

Woah turning it up to 11 😄 whats she weight in at... come on 100! Why the move to rubber out of intrest, didnt like the dust from the foams? 

Needed new tyres and fancied giving them go. Cheap enough to go back to foam if they don't work out 👍 I'm sure on weight, but it's no lightweight that's for sure! Haha

Weight doesn't really matter all that much with speed runs and can actually help a fair bit. 😉 Good luck tomorrow.

Could of been a lot worse, hope you get it back running soon

 

I had it out today. I didn't realise at the time but it stripped the spur too so back on slower gearing for now. Tbh it was a blessing in disguise, it promoted me to sort a few little bits out that needed tweaking and now it's running better than ever! 80mph will be mine soon enough 🙂

Well done sir! Im comin for ya, i want that 1st place 😜

I'm looking forward to the challenge. It surprised me how easily it got up to speed after the issues I've had previously, could be famous last words but I don't think 90mph will give me too much trouble 😉

You'd be surprised how difficult it can be sometimes getting just a few extra mph so it very well could be famous last words. 😆  

 

Congratulations on the 84mph PB. Well done. :topbanana:
