    Default U-95 1/8 scale.

    Another successful test run. This time with a GPS thanks to fellow club member Damien. Also thanks to another member, Luke, for the video. I don't usually bother with GPS readings. But the guys convinced me to put one in. I must say that I was surprised.
    118 k/hr. That's 73mph.
    Not bad on an oval.

    Cheers.
    Paul.

    Thanks Mike.
    I must admit that I love hooking that thing into a turn at full noise knowing that it will come out the other side.

    Thanks Mike/kfxguy.

    Andrew.
    I've had it there a couple of times for testing but by the end of the days main racing, the wind & waves are up too high to really give it a good test.

    Here's what we had to race in a couple of meetings ago.
    Will you be at the next meeting?

    Unfortunately not mate I will be in Mackay. After the next meeting I am packing the gear to head to Yarrawonga for the straight line stuff.
