You might have me this week Pete. I just ran my second and bombed again! I messed up over and over and over. I practiced with a different setup and liked it but didnt save it, dont ask me why, then ran with a different setup (all top) this run, which I couldnt get to work for me well.....

Wish every one else would run atleast their first runs early in the week too.

Maybe my fast lap will be good for a point? Guess I'll have to wait and see.

I have been trying a lot of different things on this track and to be honest nothing seems to make a big differance....I'm tight in and loose off, no adjustments seem to help.


Keep practicing bro, you might find that sweet stop again!

 

[slowngreen]

My pit worked this time, so 3rd race will be the charm

Try a tick more caster and depending on your rear susp. settings maybe less camber at the back.

If you beat my current run I might be screwed, the more I practice the worst I get. I'm going to have to pick a set up and stick with it LOL

I have been messin with it and I just can't get it to drive the way I want. It's a little better getting out of the corner now but it's doesn't turn very well.

Try jacking the rear blade all the way to the right. Move the front blade 2 or 3 clicks left of center.

Give that a try and see how it goes.

 

[SMaxxin]

Adjusting the blades made a difference, going to do a little more testing.

Wish every one else would run atleast their first runs early in the week too.

Me too!

 

[robmob]

I'm not there on consistency yet or I would take a run. I may just take what I would call a throw away run for the sole purpose of getting the fast lap. Can't do it tonight though since I am taking my son to the local fair so I can eat junk food, drink beer and see all the toothless ride operators. LOL

 

[slowngreen]

Excuses are like a........er.....well you know how it goes....

I like the fairs here because theres lots of chicks out wearing very little from the killer heat......so I build up items for my spank bank.....

 

[slowngreen]

Your gonna have to run again Pete...lol

Sorry I can't make my run yet guys. I was out of town and just got home. Right now my batts are dead and I've only had 1 practice run for 2-3 min so I'm nowhere near dialed for this race.

Man you need a new excuse, or some new batteries, that "my batteries are dead" thing is old already man.

Truth is what it is. I could say I don't want to kick your butt right away :

 

[NCNitro]

But at least that would be the truth, lol.

 

[robmob]

I'm back from the fair and could put in a run if I wasn't playing Mafia Wars. LOL

 

[SMaxxin]

A little tip for other noobs...When you gear down your car it will burn more fuel! On my second run I ran out of fuel about 30 seconds before normal, on the last run I got very lucky and as soon as I crossed the finish line for lap 43 (one lap ahead of Lloyd) I ran out of fuel, that was a long last lap

Your gonna have to run again Pete...lol

I had to use all of my runs and get lucky with fuel but I squeaked out two more laps! now I need someone else to get fast lap.

 

[slowngreen]

Good job Pete! Stole it from me this week.

 

[Racer 1966]

But at least that would be the truth, lol.

Batts are dead is the truth,that happens when you practice and run ALL the races! : :

I was thinking the same thing though, your batts are always dead! I've prolly not charged mine once this series lol.

 

[Racer 1966]

What are you using? Mine are only 700mAh Sony NiCds,I have to charge them about once a week.
