My mates and I regularly take over sainsburys car park on a sunday afternoon for little car GP. Bloody good fun and highly recommended. Enjoy.
You know it would of gone faster if you used the Silverstone hop up!

Looks like you've had it lowered too!

How much we talking here, 2 mm - 3mm? I guess it'll make all the difference to the handling!!

I by most of my RC stuff from a company in Hong Kong. They are really good very quick, plus they always mark the parcel: Gift toys HK$50.00. I have never had to pay any duty yet! They are doing the S2000 body only for around

Nope not lowered, just a bit of sagging the standard shocks aren't very good so I'm replacing them with some oil filled ones. I haven't even run it yet as I haven't got a controller (want to get a decent one but can't afford it right now )

It's got a Novak Super Rooster and just the standard motor for now.

I thought that looked like a Novak speedo (I was going to say "was it a cyclone" but I can't quite make out the detail from the pic - I loved playing around with the "cyclone" and "pit wizard" when my son used to race these cars changing throttle response parameters and drive frequencies etc!). Novak make good kit and you should get a long run time with the standard motor fitted (but not much speed though - althought that's probably not a bad thing until you get used to it!).
