I've been waiting a while for one to be in stock in the UK. :(

Might have to just leave it for a while and fit the thinner chassis.

More mid corner steering, more steering response but more difficult to drive.

Finally got my 1.6mm top deck and tried it at the West London circuit.

Despite the track temp only being around 15degC. I managed to beat my previous personal best in 4 out of the 5 quali runs with it.

The only place I think I noticed a difference straight away was around the 'D' which is a fast corner onto the straight, with the thinner top deck I could get on the power slightly sooner as it seemed to allow a little more on power steering.

My car was easy to drive and seemed to have quite alot of steeering.
Combined with some drag brake it was the best setup I have ever had on any car at that track.

I won't be trying it indoors as I don't trust myself not to crash and break something.
