Please clarify.
BTW I've rectified chassis width so it complies with the 3.125" rule

Re: Sad News, John Ward

Thanks for letting us know Dennis, sad that he's passed away at a relative early age, a blunt reminder to look after ourselves as time marches on. RIP John.

Re: Track Power Supplies

If you have 2 rivergates would it not be better to split, 1 on 4 lanes and 1 for the other 4. A common negative should not be an issue. I would never attempt to balance the power supplies as I expect the complexities to maintain and the impacts of drift in would be an ongoing problem. You could eve...

Re: 2013 NATS results - Sunday

You got to be kidding Stu, no team orders there-with 150 laps on orange by the Kid and Beau Jangles with a respectable 127 on Red, Cody just drove 'round him.

Nice Poduim finish for NSW drivers ! :D

Good job Cody !!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Old Phart needing driving tips before ADC

Ok I'll try that, with the bods you run .005 for both, maybe with a sticker for Opens?
With 139 X 31 is the rear of the body in line with the centre of the rear axle or further back ?
Thx for the help, and yes I'll try something with more fender and more kick in the tail

Gentlemen, for me to avoid becoming a mobile chicane during the 2013 ADC, would some generous soul give me some help around controller settings for HSC for 27 and Open cars.
