Today was another day of driving on our indoor track. Lot's of dodgem going on as there's a mix of skill levels and even some toy grade thrown in. It's interesting as it teaches me to look ahead a little.
First time running my new Tamiya VW Bus. It's stock except for ball bearings, better battery holder (moves battery to the right for better balance) and some shimming to eliminate bump steer (typical Tamiya). I also added washers to the axles to eliminate the side to side play. I have stiffeners for the body posts as well because it wobbles around as stock. It's a sloppy design by Tamiya, but the body looks outstanding. Here are my 3D printable body mount braces for this car:

2:25 - My 3D printable M-Chassis car (yellow Alfa Romeo) is my favourite to drive. It's meant to be a basic car and doesn't have mounts for (and doesn't need) oil shocks even.

4:15 - The red car at the end is my new 190mm FWD chassis design that isn't ready for sale yet. It seems to work well. It's designed for oil shocks and anti roll bars and will have body mounts for standard Tamiya TT01/2 bodies.
I also drove my Badger FWD buggy and it dominates the track when it's out because of the wide stance that gives it insane handling.
