teamredracing Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 Not to much between AMCC, Rossko and myself in the Raids. Its coming down to the wire people . Thanks again Boss & co. for a great round. Now all we need is the wheels to fall off the UTE and all will be right in the Universe .

kalbfellp Posted April 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 I think the big ute will be well away on my Hillclimb only the tight downhill harpin ( like Gazzas) may slow the thing, it is a very god car, bloody glad he did to send the BMW! Looks like the test of us need to do some work before the next series. Quote Phil https://www.hobartminiaturecarclub.com/ Email Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadow_rusty Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 Thanks guys. Loving how consistent it's been. I think Phil is glad I didn't run my bmw as it is by far the quicker car here.

charlesx Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 Hi Boss302, Miveson and all. Thanks for great run in WRC and Historic. Good to see some of the podium positions still in contention. Noticed the comment about my Subaru kart. Not sure whether this is something to do with my past sporting activities. I also spent 25 years sailing competitively so lucky it was not called a boat. As a sailmaker perhaps I should add a sail. Cannot say I did much to my Subaru between years 3-4 but perhaps like many of us it put on a little weight. I know I had to take most of the weight off my Ford RS200 and put it inside body but this does not seem to have done it any harm. It is still very average. Message to Shadow_Rusty. Seeing as you broke Scaly mould look out in 2016. That is if you do not pike out and join Team MSC. Regards Chas Le Breton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadow_rusty Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 Hoping to either aquire a SRP 16k, or it will get it's Scaley 18k back... That rotten Fly 18k will be sent to the graveyard...

curef99 Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 i think that for the 2015/2016 even we should allocate a prize to the best report and the best video because this one will stay a piece of history! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben_M Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Very nice. I think i'll stick with the buggy again if I enter next time. Shadows ute was great to drive, very tempted to get one too.

shadow_rusty Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Awe schucks guys... Awesome to know that you guys have been impressed by it, and or, enjoyed driving it... The utes are fun as they slide so well on the larger corners due to their long wheelbase. Obviously, it's the very tight hairpins that let it down a little, but every vehicle has it's Achilles heal. Also, depending on what rules change, will determine how well the truck fares. My advice would be to force unlocked axles (must use shocks and minimum 5mm travel) and a 'control tyre' (hopefully the 40+ shore ones Phil is considering). Other than that, you wouldn't want any more power than the stock motor, and lead under the chassis steps works well.

kalbfellp Posted April 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Ga41t you did have aproblem with a cracked rear wheel,I have glued it and now seems O/K. Should hold up for the two stages. Rusty I think looking up the axles may make the Ninco more reliable, it is hard to maintain a good gear mesh with the axle floating around so much.I will look at this more after the last stage.
