Remarks – Former 1/10th scale World Champion Daniele Ielasi is running the BMT 984 chassis with his Ielasi Tuned prototype inboard front suspension. This hand made system is still in the testing phase but it already makes the front end of the car more stable, even over curbs, without the loss of steering. Saying he still needs to test progressive springs up front, when the final version is complete it will be available for both the BMT and Capricorn chassis. In terms of set-up, Ielasi not testing at Fiorano prior to the event, he has made the rear end stiffer while up front has changed the roll centres top and bottom by raising the lower suspension pin by 1mm and the top pin by 3mm.
