Hhmm, I never did update my post...
Two important things:
1. I was really silly in my adjustment of the mesh on the car: OBVIOUSLY I should have moved the motor (as is standard with BRM 1/24 cars....) and not mess around with the gears! As one Mr. B Bunny used to say "What a maroon!". More grammatically correctly I will just say I was a bit of a moron and leave it there.
2. Most importantly: in the header to my original post I said "This could be a weapon". Boy, was that ever proven true! This car is fast. VERY fast! Like blow-my-lap-time-estimate-out-of-the-water fast! I postulated a best lap of 6.75 seconds (which is already very fast). But in reality I got a 6.508 second lap out of it! This is really very, very fast. Fast like I do not believe any car run in a recent proxy on Luf's new track has gotten that kind of lap time fast.
I really like it. Now all I have to do is adjust the mesh the PROPER way.... Oh well, as Forrest Gump said: "Stupid is as stupid does."
