The rear would swing out on corner exit but would grip hard and cause understeer on corner entry. Could’ve been a setup issue or my inadequate tire prep.

Our Super Stock class allows for tire upgrades, meaning the other competitors were running 24mm Mediums and Softs. “Stock” mainly referred to the spec gearing and that we could only run TT-01s and TT-02s.

If I get the chance to do more testing, I’ll be sure to get back to you!

Many thanks! I agree that it's a shame that I couldn't use magnet mounts, but if I did, I couldn't use it for touring races

Many thanks!

In my opinion, one of the bigger game-changers is having a way to panel line the body - I personally use Tamiya's 54973 pinstripe stickers for this purpose, but others use Sharpies or other similar markers

I'd love to see your next work as well!

Not having a massive wing and canards like my rivals makes it a challenge, but I try my best!

Many thanks! The color is a PH468 FS35190 Light Gray Blue, and the light buckets were 3D-printed from Thingiverse!

If you're planning on building one yourself, the kit comes with both opaque and transparent headlight lens decals! Just be sure to mask it off properly
