its been a while since ive touched the car, but the racing season is coming, so had to pull my finger out, and get some upgrades happening.
i didnt get a lot of seat time last year but its clear on the right day at the right circuit, the combination of me and the car have the pace to run well inside the top ten overall, which means ive been giving thought as to how to get on the podium.
i cant easily find more power, but i know from chasing Porsches and lotus sunbeams around various tracks what i need most is a car which will carry more speed in the tighter corners, which means taking weight out the car, and more importantly off the front. the trouble is most of my attempts to lighten the car whilst being successful are all taking weight off the back so doing nothing to help the car turn in better, and not something i can fix by just drilling a few more holes, so ive splashed a bit of cash. ive ordered a polycarbonate windscreen, and some alloy front arms.
so these have been changed for, these....
the alloy arms being half the weight of the steel ones
