Modded V1 & V2 long term testing

[joeling]

Hi guys,

Just thought I'd start another thread on the testing of the modded V1 & V2 MMM. As mentioned in the other thread, I did the BrianG mod on my V1 & V2 residing in a X1 CR buggy & X2 truggy respectively.

Modded V2 survived another short bashing session on Saturday.

Modded V1 had a full race day today. The weather is very cool for this part of the world around 28 to 30 deg C & but humidity is high as it had just rained earlier in the morning prior to the race. I ran both nitro & electric (modded V1) as 2 persons.

I am happy to say that V1 survived 3 rounds of 5 minute qualifying & made it to the A main (6th qualifier out of 13). However, as A main was 30 minutes, I sweet talked the race director into swapping my running order as my nitro qualified way down the order in B main. So I ran 15 minutes of B main using my modded V1. I came in second.

Sometime into the 3rd heat, the fan stopped working. Not sure what happened but I ran the buggy anyway straight 15 minutes in teh B with a non working fan.

So all in all, a pretty happy outing for the v1

HN drivers - but my HN nitro killed its rear diff & I had to run my backup TTR S3


Waiting for the nitros...
