UN BOX BOX BOX! (with a German accent)
I finally tried the BMW 91 Kleber Le Mans on my power strip and it was noisy. After a few hours I stopped it and later opened it up. On the track it was a 5.5 second mess. The front axle assemblies were fully tight, so I loosened them and lubed the bearing surfaces. They are cambered axle holders. Down to 4.5 seconds and with some practice 4.3. I am tempted to slap a BMW sticker on the chassis and run in the prototype class of Le Mans. The sedan is slowing it down, specifically where the front tires rub the fenders.
The Lexan rattles so I dabbed some Shoo Goo on the edges and that helped.
For some reason other than lead trigger finger it de-slots randomly in the button turn blue lane. Maybe I am driving randomly trying to find the braking point and intensity. Or is it torquing itself out of the turn? The spring loaded guide might be “wrong”. No weight added. No front auxiliary driving lights added. HMMMMMM.
