Post your best lap time for 3P Infield Circuit...

Hey guys...The fastest lap times posted on www.racednano.com are kind of bogus. I don't know what is up with the majority of the top 25 fastest times all being listed as 0.80. So I thought it would be a good idea to start up a thread for us to post up our ACTUAL fastest lap times to see what is really being thrown down...

Thanks arch2b!!!

So post up your best lap time and any additional info that you think would be helpful to others running on the same layout.

My fastest lap so far is a 4.72.

Thats running the stock motor and standard 6 tooth pinion with 40's on the front and 20's on the rear...

Anybody else???

Clockwise or Counter-Clockwise

I was just watching a video of the 3P infield circuit in the Virginia Beach HT and they were running in the opposite direction to what we have been running on the Mooresville track. What is Kyosho's intended direction for this circuit? I guess we can only compare times if we state the direction run...

I ran some laps today in both the clockwise and counter-clockwise direction...I didn't think there would be that much of a difference - boy was I wrong - I was noticeably smoother/faster in the counter-clockwise direction for some reason...I guess I will have to find some more time to go back and practice up on my clockwise laps...

Still using the stock motor and the standard 6 tooth pinion I couldn't really improve on my previous time - especially in the clockwise direction - I think I had a couple of mid 4.6's, but that's about it...

Anybody else out there...???

In the few laps I did with the store demo Subaru on Saturday I got a 5.1 in the ccw direction. The car is really bouncing though... a lower, wider car would be better. It has an X-Speed motor which makes the power delivery a bit abrupt. The stock motor would probably turn faster, consistent laps on this small track.

I managed a 4.58 with my Enzo, Joe E did a 4.49 with his McLaren. My Enzo was a bit better than the store Subie demo, less chassis roll and chatter. Throttle transitions were smoother with the stock motor versus the X-Speed.

I can say without a doubt it is clockwise like majority of races in the US. This track was developed and designed here in California by Kyosho America. They are manufactured here as well.

I was able to run a 5.4 with the subie stock... now with the tires and chassis plate upgrade I should run smoother around the track....
