Testing 2009

Flat Out Off Road Racing Team has just finished it’s first test session in readiness for the upcoming season. With the “Pootrol” and the “80” put through their paces and both cars coming through with little or no issues.

For the 80 Series, this run was a good test for the new stronger front diff after the recent damage at the Gas Dash. With the new front diff, and minor shock set up changes and the big V8 purring along the car ran strongly and should, fingers crossed, run well at the next event.

The Pootrol (low budget entry and poor relative to the 80) used this test run as an opportunity to test the new rear coils which came off the front verge of a near house in a roadside cleanup! The Pootrol was also sporting a set of new “old school” rims which surprisingly didn’t come from a roadside cleanup, but close to it.

All in all the cars came through well with only a few little jobs to be done before Yealering
