Well... it's been a while since my last update... so here goes...
The car is proving to be a lot more fun than I originally thought as improvements are made to it... I've been reading a whole bunch of forums and articles to get a better understanding
of these little cars and with the findings there are noticeable changes in the car's performance... The most fun tip I found recently was the use of WD40 to clean and treat the tyre...
The tyre absorbs the fluid and makes it a little softer and tackier... this greatly increase the car's mechanical grip therefore significantly reducing my lap times... I am still having a few
challenges where alignment is concerned, but I will eventually acquire a setup station to help with this problem....
See update photos below...
I made a little modification to the battery hold downs to reduce forward movement of the pack during 'sudden' stops on the walls
Got some advice regarding the tweak of the car when the wires are tied to the upper deck... so i removed them.. to keep some aesthetic value, I wrapped them with wire sleeves
Since the lap times were improving, i started pushing the car a little harder... therefore this made the motor a little warmer... so I installed a little fan to keep things cool
I recently got some new Shock towers which allowed for improved Shock geometry and tuning
