Marc Rheinard has still got it

Register

Marc Rheinard has showed the Tamiya 416 is a great car by winning again this weekend , Although he had to use a different chassie from the kit to do it ......

Running a new prototype chassis plate on his TRF416, Marc Rheinard added to his Heat 1 TQ with the fastest time for Heat 3. The new chassis (compared with original in image below) allows for the batteries to be positioned more to the front of the car and the former World Champion was happy with the handling improvements it made allowing him to set a new fastest lap of 10.56 on his way to the best run of the day. Rheinard will stick with the chassis for the day’s final qualifier but will make small changes to his set-up to try and make the car easier to drive.

A New chassie this early in the life of the 416 did they get it wrong from the start !!!!
