Remarks – Reigning EOS Champion Bruno Coelho continues to dominate 4wd proceedings with his Xray XB4 2017. Set with the same basic team setup that he has been using for several months, for the Arena33 he has made just one change to the car, opting to use a harder front anti-roll bar to prevent the car from traction rolling on power. On his Hobbywing speedo he has also changed its setting to reduce top speed as well as increase drag brake due to the small size of the track and its many tight corners.

Chassis Focus – Lee Martin

Chassis: Yokomo YZ2
Motor: RC Concept 6.0T
ESC: RC Concept SC120
Batteries: RC Concept Omega 4500mAh
Radio/Servo: Sanwa/Xpert
Tires: Schumacher (handout)
Body: Kit
Remarks – Beginning practice with the same setup from the last round of the series at Hudy Arena, the Yokomo driver made a number of changes to his YZ2 to make it easier on this difficult Arena33 track. Changing to harder shock oil due to the large number of jumps and changing the Ackermann, weight distribution to remove steering due to the lack of fast corners, the British driver also made the rear track width narrower as well as opting to run a smaller front wing.
