I always suffer from the bigger engine d cars pulling away from me down the straights but i find it makes me try harder round the corners.
check out my vids



with the air filter out the bonnet its a five porter, in the other vids were there s no air filter its 7 ported.

Your 7 port seems really strong, did you build it. what diff ration are you running?
Is it me or is it a five speed box. What box are you running?

That's a great video. He pulls away on the straights but then you reel him in again around the track nearly get past then he pulls away to the last corner and S/F line.

When does the race season for you start again.

I really like the way this car is built. Both versions you have in this thread look fantastic.

I was wondering how much the sway bars affect the car and how the cars feels with them? I'm in the middle of building a mini for autocross and the odd track day and wondering if it is worth the investment.
