spenny just went down to check them matey , and they were not firing up .... I though it might be lose wiring so I opened them up .... they have all the connection firmly in place.... I have no idea what is wrong with them .... all I was doing was pulling them out from being rolled up (admittedly I did tug pretty hard) and the front stopped working ....

they actually look really well made inside  :icon_thumleft: ah well the back on works well  [rofl] [rofl] [rofl]

You have only had them less than a year. Holroyd will definately fix them for you :icon_thumright:

3 laps.....that imo depends on the circuit,tracks like Brands Indy yeah,but Silvers GP...no,as its a longer circuit and there are longer straights and longer[?]corners to help warm the tyres up.So for me,at Silvers i was going quicker half way round my 2nd lap...but as i said imo.
Also i like to build my speed up per session....start off at a reasonable pace and build speed up till you are comfy!  :pottytrain2:
