Details?

Are you going to tell us how it went, or just show pictures?

Anybody break down?

Best mods?

The race went smothly. No broken parts. We ran 1 qualifying run of 20 min and the final was 30 min. We had 9 competitors. 3 cars (one of them was mine

) had a homemaid chasy. We all run on foam tires (tuning tires for a 1:32 toy car). I used only one pack of GP 750 mAh batteries (pack of 5 cells) for the both runs. We all had the stock motor. Best "mod" was the wet rag that the winer used to clear the tires (won't be alowed on the next race

). I used a 10 tooth pinion (not original). In the first run I made quite a lot more laps than anybody else because I used LRP's traction compound. If you want any more info, just ask
