Well, i changed all the setup to basically Chris Ashton's in the manual for indoors.
Got to where i usually Race indoors and got ready to see how it was.
1st thing you have to remember.. I have Not got a Diff yet, so i had to run with the Spool fitted. Which on a usually sub 10 sec lap would probably be useless !!!
Round 1,
Well, i went out and it was pretty obvious the Mi3 would be a Handful !!!
In the tight confines of this indoor track a Diff is needed. Which i knew it would be really, i just havn't got one yet.
Round 2,
Sorry, but i got the Yoke out !! :lol:
It was setup for outdoors, i changed the gearing and left the rest as was.
Damn that was a different story !!!
I had a nice run and put in a good time, to secure 2nd for the night.
Round 3,
Back to the Mi3...
I changed the front toe-in to parellel, To help with the corner entry, also loosened the rear diff as it was a bit tight form when i built it. Felt a lot better now.
Out on the Track it was different to the first round, but still not on a par with the Yoke.
Looking at the times at the end... The M3 was actually as quick on a single lap, but it was just too hard to keep it up lap after lap.
Round4,
Back to the Yoke...
I altered the ride hieght and that was it.. lol
had to get back into Yoke driving style, but was then going nice...
All until i clipped a hose, barral rolled and found a pack of Cells Underneath the Chassis, not on it !!! :lol: Oops !!!
Oh well, night over..
Thoughts...
The Mi3 didn't really stand a chance, and i knew that before i'd even got there.
But o be honest i thought it went better than what i thought it might.
I'll now go off and spend some More cash on a Diff, which i would think will transform it for Indoors.
Also gonna get a few other bits and pieces for it, like SPur gears, washers etc etc.
More reports to come as and when i Race.
Oh, and it wasn't as bad switching between the 2, so i may do that again so i can get comparisons.
Oh, and last thing... Think i've changed my mind about the Yoke... It's now staying put and will be prepped to be a WET Car !!!!
