Looking forward to finally picking up my first R.1. Been working my way up to it. Started in 1/28 about 6 months ago and have had my eye on the R.1 since the beginning but got some good advice from the folks at my local tracks (MTRC Raceway Tampa, and ScaleNation Winterhaven, FL) and started with Box stock. I am glad I did. Even though I had extensive experience with 1/10th scale and 1/8th scale racing, 1/28 is a completely different ballgame. I appreciate all your content on the platform and I am excited to finally be able to pick one up!. Keep up the great work Marcus! Your contributions to the hobby are greatly appreciated!

It’s interesting that f1 rules for wheelbase are a range vs other classes with just a flat “98” mm. 112-116 is interesting.
@mwxperformance10 ай бұрын
We are 1/28 scale and if you look at the wheelbase in real f1 cars it ranges from 2600 to 3600mm. In scale that’s 108-120 It’s already RM28sa approved and PNWC approved in about a week.
@mwxperformance10 ай бұрын
We run 98mm and 102mm in the pn GtLm class. I ran 102 at worlds so it really isn’t a big deal in fact the only classes that are just 98 is open and mod. Every other class you can run 98 or 102

So on the off set setup, does wider offset help with traction roll more because of the stance of the car or bc its making the car push more with the weird radius its turning? My thoughts are if it's traction rolling there probably is another problem causing this and wider offset covers /over compensates it. Tha KS for taking the time and going into detail on your videos. I learned so much i can't wait to fix alot next time at the track lol
@mwxperformance2 жыл бұрын
offset has minimal to do with traction rolling. its almost always a setup or tire issue.
