What but, err, that's madness!!
Anyway, I completely retract any complaints about stock not having enough room for innovation.

Does that not have trouble going the right/wrong way up though when the match begins?

Looks stunning. Is the turnspeed quite slow?

4 plows, and yes the turning is slow. There's a driving technique I have to use where I quickly reverse to overcome the forward momentum and then spin to turn. Just got to make sure I don't get flanked.

It's not good, but it's better than I expected. Main reasons for failure are slow turning and small reach on the VS.

WEDGES ARE GREAT THO <3

Yep. It was just the song that was playing when I finished and was thinking of a name. Sounds cool too

@ Pwn: Yah the VS Hpz are static. It's kinda a pet peeve of mine to have bursted VS, cause its so bloody unstable.

Chassis needs to be tilted more for optimum turnspeed, I think.  Right now it's hovering on the verge of turn-ability.


But it sure does look nice.
