Ive been hard at work again sorting my CAT XLS vintage racer ready the big vintage meeting of the year at Ryde/Sydney in a few weeks. Ready to kick some dirt Im running a 12 turn 'V'spec motor, 4200 lipo saddles and a Q.C.3 and FET servo. Cant wait to get this machine on to the race track.

Looks great! Please be careful with the belts . -Jeff

Thanks Jeff. I have been running Cats, Procats and Bosscat for years now and I am well aware of the front diff housing being pushed back resulting in the front belt loosening right off. Its constantly on my mind when I check the car over from time to time,making sure the belt tracks down the centre. Thats why Im using the procat front alloy housing.

Very nice! I love the paint! Simple but very effective.

That's cool. I have never really seen any cats except for on this forum. Are they 4wd?

Sorry computer is freaking out again. Double posts once in a while

Regarding them belts i putted peices of lexan between the upperdeck and the front gearbox for belt tension instead of the screws that draged the box forward . I read an article in an english mag where they inervjued an fast procat driver and he gave some tip about setting the procat up for speed. Ofcourse the belt was pink

Looks good bormac. Makes me want to get one of mine going again.

bormac do you run out at the chargers track at Redbank Plains much?

Hello D.M.
I had been a member of the Chargers club a little while back and I even had a few meets out there early on this year but I haven't been racing there alot this year. I want to go back out there but with work being slow i have other things to be spending money on at the moment.
I would like to go back out there and race my CAT sx and even my CAT as per above. Where are you from? Drop me a line if you like- 0402203004
