It's a Fly 908 that Ed is getting ready for the Targa Florio Proxy.

Alloy wheels, a Pendle 20k motor, ballast...and much wider tyres than the C1.

To put the performance of the Corvette into perspective for similar sized cars (54mm width across the tyres, 8mm wide tyres), a podium car is capable of getting round in about 6.7 seconds...but that's fully prepped with a 20k S-can in sidewinder configuration, lightweight interior and lead ballast.

I wasn't expecting record breaking pace from the MRSlotcar C1 as it's had no prep-time other than trued tyres.
Chris (and some other club members) prefers little to no brakes but I prefer a goodly amount of brakes to enable me to drive into a corner deeper.

I'm sure performance will improve if Chris wants to go down that road but he likes the way it is and seems happy enough with it's current speed.
