2013 - vintage Lazer ZX at the track!
Ok so this car is not entirely stock or standard but oh how this thing drives! I am just blow away at how smooth and quick this car is out on the track. Yes my driving is not great but even in poor hands these cars drive really well.
I met up with Dan from the UK who is out here on vacation with his family. We've caught up a couple of times to run our cars at a couple of tracks around Sydney and on this occasion I brought my ZX. Equipped with a simple EZRUN 13T brushless system, lipo's and a 2.4 radio this car was a lot of fun. Due to my rusty driving the car came off a little poorly at times from some of the bigger jumps but that was my fault. I ended up busting a front C-hub. I am running the longer uni's all round and am wondering if alloy hub with the wider stance are available?

Now that would be a great event!Welshy40 wrote:We need to organise a worlds vintage meet so all lazer fans can compete against one another. Im jealous and wish i was there.
I'm meeting up with Dan again at St Ives in the morning. This time I have my GoPro Hero2 camera with a GoPole so I can shoot some 'in action' HD footage around the track. I can't promise miracles but I'll give it a go

Re: 2013 - vintage Lazer ZX at the track!
Got the ZX out to the St Ives race track on Sunday and had a blast with this car. Although I had a few bugs to sort out in the end the car was dialled.
As it happened the EZRUN esc was set up with minimal punch control, the rear diff was slipping, the front shocks needed a heavier oil and heavier duty coils went on all round. Man what a difference!
The car had issues right up until the finals where I was competing against a modern day stock class. The ZX ended up finishing 2nd in that final and I was happy.
