Who do you work for Lynchy? I used to be Telstra/NDC and then worked for Alcatel a lifetime ago.

Re: BOSS STREAMLINER S/UF 925

Anderson connectors are the two pronged external battery connectors which help when you want to plug in a remote battery to fire it up and quickly disconnect it.

Yep, I learn that 100mph tape isn't 200mph tape. LOL

Re: Brakes, how much do I need?

Brakes, how much do I need?

Re: Shaguar

I noticed that their pits and spectators were much closer than what we run over here. Have they ever had a car on course spin out and collide with a spectator vehicle?

Re: E/PRO build - Project Bluebird

Got my SCTA rulebook yesterday (thanks Gaz) so lots of reading to do.

Parting out my XE at the moment, so that'll delay things, but it also gives me the opportunity to rip the 2.77 diff out.
