rcLazy.com T-Shirts
A photo of the back of a rcLazy team member appeared on the SLCC website, from the Aldershot meeting. I can’t tell who it is though!
The t-shirt looks good! I’ve got a few more on the way, let me know if you’d like one – you gotta wear it trackside though, and you’ve not got to try too hard!

rcLazy.com Stickers
I just printed up some monochrome stickers of various sizes on transparent laser sheets, they’re not bad, better than I expected. Here they are on my mini and touring car.

I’m the blue and white car on grid point 6, I think I came in 5th. That big moment at the chicane didn’t really help!

SLCC Round 1: Aldershot
Today saw the 1st round of the Southern League Clubman’s Cup at Aldershot.
I was feeling particularly lazy, so I drove up this morning and did a handful of laps in practice. The car was okay, not enough turn in, and a bit twitchy.
The recommendations in the pits from Saturday’s practice was to shorten all the top links, to flatten the car out, and make it more stable. So I tried that, and also removed the front anti-dive.
Round 1 was a bit lairy, really twitchy, but I realised I’d not reset droop, and my diff was slipping. I corrected droop, changed ackerman, but forgot to tighten diff for Round 2.
I got it together in Round 3, the car was stable, decent turn in, speed was okay. I put in a reasonable run, about 10 seconds off TQ, so qualified 6th.
Finals went okay, a 4-into-1-chicane incident left me on my roof, entirely my fault I think – I was a little overexuberant! 2nd final was cleaner.
The racing was great fun though, the cars were so even on pace and setup, so it was all down to driving, nice lines and racecraft. Very enjoyable.
The rest of the rcLazy team had fun, they didn’t have much luck in the finals including letting the magic smoke out of a 10.5 with a nice big burning smell.
A great day out, it flew by.

Much More Magic Commu Polisher
Shared by simon
I use 540 motors all the time for Tamiya Mini racing, and this looks great! I’m not sure if it’ll fit in the slots of my older 540s though – the slot holes are smaller.I gotta have one, just for tricks.
Much More continues its quest to clean the World’s comms with the release of their Magic Commu Polisher, which is a too that cleans and polishes the dirty commutator of 540 Mabuchi and Tamiya Sport tuned motors quickly. This item is a Much More exclusive that allows you work on non rebuildable motors. It works by placing the commu polisher into the motor’s airhole, press the polishers button down and rotate the shaft using the aluminium mounted on the main shaft.
