Let me know if any modification is necessary.

Is anyone running the Chaparral in the Q1 races or will it be a GT40 series? Does the high wing on the Chaparral automatically make it uncompetitive? Russell?


Marty

As I don't have a Chaparral, I'll be campaigning an Alan Mann Racing GT40. Not a fan of the Chappy.

Marty,


I attempted to run an MRRC Chappy 2F body on a Slot.It GT40 platform, but the weight difference with the heavier MRRC body and higher CG with the wing made it uncompetitive when compared to a GT40. I have a white body Chappy kit somewhere, but I think it ran away with your BRM Leyton House Porsche kit. I'm really not sure if Russell ever got his Chappy dialed in.
