I was hedging my bets on a free one- but if you can beat that price let me know! lol
Seriously, if I don't get one soon I will buy one, but the RDX probably wouldn't be my first choice.

Heyup Jimmy.

What's your first choice then ?
The T2R went as well as can be expected, it's a bit 'plasticy' in places, but for the cash I don't think you can go wrong. It didn't break either with is always a bonus.

T2R or that hotbodies thing still (even tho its a plastic warrior). Do you like the T2r then ?
I thought I could write something decent for the site about a mid-entry level tourer like one of those.

did you do alright ?
did you sell your t1r ?

Heyup Jimmy.

Yes I sold my T1R a good while ago on ebay. I would definatley reccommend the T2R, it seemed pretty bullet proof.

It did go really well thanks, took a while to get 'into the flow' of driving a tourer again, I kept using the brakes and trying to swing the back end out for corners using like with the buggy ! After a couple of rounds I realised that simply turning into a corner on the racing line scrubs of loads of speed and being smooth and tight is the way to go. There were a few really quick cars at Gtcc that weren't regulars and they were silly fast, using BRM spec motors aparently. Anyhow I ended up 3rd in the A, could have being 2nd was close. The chap who won it drove a Losi and it was quicker than any of my modifieds !

So all in all a good first run. Won't be going for a few weeks and i'm on my jollies for a fortnight after next week, but then i'll be back, I really enjoyed it.

Andy.

yeah, also JHimmy make sure you buy some LRP traction additive, and I'll let you in on a secret, get the ashphalt stuff, instead of carpet, as it is thicker.;)
