Joseph Migliaccio. Karma it's a wonderful thing.

Some people are like Slinkies... they're really good for nothing... but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

Congratulations Tokyo D3 racers.

Way to go gentlemen.

Did you notice a difference in how the ProSlot powered cars ran in the race vs. the FK motors.

Be well,
Greg VanPeenen

The Spider II car Kamo-san raced was very fast because of light weight(88g) but very easy to drive
My Spider II car weighed 85g with a TSRD3.
I placed more than 15g center-weight pan to satisfy the minimum weight of 100g.
The car became so stable that laping at 4.2-3 was easy on every lane.

At the moment FK cars are superior in terms of absolute speed because of its light weight.
PD cars are more stable and consistent during the actual race because of more than 10g weight.
The next goal for us is to tune PD cars faster at the qualify.


This is all great and congrats to Kamo & Haruki . But were is the picture of the chassis?

Joe,
The pictures will be posted soon.

Haruki-san & Kamo-san;

Oscar,
In November and December, Kamo-san and I will race TSRD3/Falcon7 cars to prepare for the coming Checkpoint Cup in January.
However, we continue to develop & tune IRRA cars. As for F-1, we are still trying to develop competitive cars but with not so much success.

Hi, Oscar,

I will bring Kamo-san to the Cup with various Kamo-cars for our Team Tokyo racers at BPR.
After I come back from IRRA's Fall Brawl in Mid-November, Kamo-san & I will concentrate ourselves on developing & tuning cars for the Checkpoint Cup.
I hope some more Tokyo racers will join us for the Cup.
Yoshi Akiyama is helping me organize the tour, hoping he will also come as our Team Tokyo.

Looking forward to seeing you in January,

Haruki
