Its been a while now since last update.
This season looks to be even more exiting than before. New developments are still coming out, and some stuff that came out last year has started to gain a foothold in our small community.
The Spectrum based Mini-Z electronics from PN are one of the things that really are gaining interest. We will have some cars with Spectrum boards at our track this season, and a writeup will be done as soon as we have some good knowhow on them.
There are still development going on in regards of Spectrum boards, and the future looks nice for all the people needing more speed :)
As far as other new stuff, we are yet to see any of the Atomic and XPower cars around but hopefully we can have a closer look at them in the future.
New Autoscale bodies have turned up, and so far they are showing really good potential. The TRP Renault, the LaFerrari and the new SC430 are really fast at our track so it looks as the mighty R8 have some competition this season.
The Flying Finns, with especially JRP have developed a very nice subchassis for the MR-03 with a different rear suspension and really nice focus on aero details. The chassis is race proven and have shown insane speed. It can be found at Shapeways.
More and more people are converting to brushless, and more will follow. Driving style are a bit different but most racers actually find speed after getting used to it. Version 2 of the popular PN 9500 motor is out, and it is extremely good. Changeable armature, better cooling and better wire.
We hope there will be some interesting prototypes coming in for testing during the season, and if everything goes as we like we will be faster than ever.
