Ever wondered why some racers always seem to do so well?

Perhaps they know something you need to know?
Ever since I can remember, I have had a fascination with the mechanics and engineering of cars and bikes. So much so that I did my apprenticeship as a mechanic through Mercedes and studied engineering draughting.

I have been building go-karts since the age of 12, granted, my first go-karts were more like soap-boxes, but as I grew older, I began to put petrol engines into them. To date, I have built a total a 8 petrol-driven go-karts, both three and four wheelers, and raced (in my youth) 100cc International class go-karts.

About five years ago, I got into racing radio-controled cars. My first car was a Tamiya TA03F, in my second year of racing, I came fourth in the National events with my Tamiya, applying the principles outlined in the manuals provided on this site.

Now days, I enjoy some good achievements in my racing, the spoils of knowing exactly how to set up my car for different track conditions.

On this site, I have provided you with enough information to help you get the best out of your R/C car and go-kart. The only thing I can't do is drive for you, for that you will simply need to PRACTICE!

for all the information you need...
One last note:The information contained in these manuals are from all my years of research, on the web, at the track and tons of practice and trial and error. Some manuals were written by others, these I supply FREE of charge.

Good luck with racing, tuning and setting-up your car/go-kart.
