Policar Ferrari F40

I've been working on a car that's never gone well, very inconsistent...Policar Ferrari F40 SW pod with SlotIt DTM motor and 12mm NSR Ultras.  I just accepted the fact it was never going to be a good race car but this proxy made me rethink as it's on the list for Event 3, Global GT.

...so I spent a lot of time sorting it out, experimenting, trying different motors and tyres.

12mm wide tyres rubbing on the engine molding took ages to eliminate.

I decided to try narrower tyres, NSR 11mm Ultras with a NSR King 21 anglewinder and it goes really nicely albeit a little unpredictable which I've always found with AW setups.

Next week the SW pod is going back in for more testing with these narrower tyres.

Yesterday I found a set of old wheels & tyres, long since discarded and made wheel inserts out of them by gluing an axle in then filing them down on a 1st cut file (aka Bastard file - yep that's a real name, google it).

Following your comments today, You will have to fit 10mm tyres now, so that should stop the rubbing problem
