have you got your MRT pt?

Should be delivered this week, but if it isn't I'll just use the AMB PT from the Losi.

Weather isn't looking good all week, so I'm not holding my breath for Sunday.

Julian is testing it at the moment and hopefully this weekend will be the first weekend we'll use it. So pending how well it goes I can see us using it the following week.

mikeyscott 03-11-2009 07:13 PM

For those that are regulars at the club, if you have a PT can you message me the number so I can try and get it added to the timing software. Just trying the software out on my laptop to try and assist Julian. Lighten the load etc.

the weather again does not look good :(

http://news.bbc.co.uk/weather/forecast/11

but it still might change, if it is only going to be showers there is a chance we can still get some racing done. ;)

I have new body shells on the way to use through the winter and will have various top quality sticker sheets to do designs from.

So if people are getting new shells for the winter I will be offering a painting and stickering service at very reasonable prices for people who race at TORCH.

They will be a minimum or three colours and will have a racing look to the design.

You supply the body shell and I will do the rest. :thumbsup:

Yellow mini pins work a treat as people who were there two weeks ago will have seen my Tamiya win all but one race............yes a Tamiya! :p

Yes you are right Mike, it was only cos Steve wasn't there but it does show how good a Tamiya can be when set up correctly. :)

Saturday does look like it will be the better day weather wise but if as it says just showers on the Sunday, it just might be worth taking the chance and getting up and goind to the track and racing inbetween the showers.

I suppose we all will have to wait and see on the day.;)

Fingers crossed..

Not sure as I haven't heard from Julian. I'll be fitting my PT anyway and I think whatever happens the loops need to laid, protected and then tested.

mikeyscott 06-11-2009 03:26 PM

Sunday on the met office site is looking ok now :)

My MRT PT has arrived :D

tyres, dry blue mini spike, damp yellow mini spike, wet yellow mini pin - well for me anyway.

I will try to get there for half 8.

mikeyscott 07-11-2009 07:50 PM

Accuweather looks ok. Very wet at the moment :(

mikeyscott 08-11-2009 04:31 PM

Well done people for a good days racing all be it pretty cold and yucky.

Can ALL people who are racing at Titchfield please PM what crystals they use and if you are using 2.4GHz the make etc.

Also for those that haven't PM'd me and have Personal Transponders can you PM me the numbers please as I am getting the driver database populated.

Also the names of the cars you run? I think I have most cars, but I am sure I have missed some.

jkonline 08-11-2009 08:54 PM

Agreed good days racing, think it is going to take all week to get the mud off!

Tell me about it, I never ran the B4 in muddy conditions, so don't know how sealed it is. With the amount of much today the XXCR is definately going into hibernation until Spring.

The Cat SX inside held up very well.

had a good mornings racing the track was very challenging for me today,
but great fun

mikeyscott 09-11-2009 08:59 AM

Many thanks to Jimmy, TORCH now have a section in the club area.
