Yeah, nice spot but the road is dirty and shreds tires. With S3s not too much grip, then tried S1s, a little better but they look pretty bad now after two packs.

Motor runs good, geared up to 32/35 (202kph) and increased timing from 5 to 10 degrees, temps stayed below 50C on a 18C day and hard running. Amazing :) But I wasn't able to get a speed reading above 173 kph, I think the speedo is crap. Tried several different mounting locations to get the speedo in view of the cam, but only could get a readable speed display once, and that showed bogus values, like 100kph too low :(

And I think I either have too much downforce in the back or not enough in the front, the front seems to get a little squirelly at higher speeds when the road is not perfectly smooth (can also be seen in the video).


Phildogg: Still running my good old Mamba Monster Extreme (from an XO-1) flashed with 1.46 firmware.
