The time is getting closer now folks...

lets see your wheels!!!! ive managed to source a schumacher mi3.5 that will hopefully be converted to rallyx soon, just need to source a shell for it now too!

mrspeedy 14-09-2011 12:55 PM

My Focus shell has arrived at last :thumbsup: HPI have certainly made a good job of it, nice detail and a decent sized rear wing might help with the jumps ...

Just gotta slap a Mcrae paint job on it and we ready to go .....

Just noticed the Poll has more 'for' than 'against' at last !!!

My entry has just arrived.... came with a free car too :woot:

Bodyshell is genuine 80's rally car, however the paint job on it is shocking - i might have to do a quick outside blow-over to hide the worst of it... Im not going crazy with it though, i have a feeling there will be enough 'rubbing' as it is :P

I need some stickers as well.... help cover up the sprayjob :lol:

OOOO what ya got matt?

My early 90's ford rally car is ready for a test run friday, if it behaves it may get another shell in fact one of its predecessor's.....one of the last great group b rally cars ;)

peetbee 15-09-2011 10:44 PM

Matt, bring it with you, we are intrigued. I guess that the TA02s will be staying in the attic a bit longer!

So an RS200 Dave, cool! :thumbsup:

The chassis is just about ready to roll, but I still haven't had chance to make it up to Steve's to collect my shell :(

DCM 16-09-2011 08:30 AM

I have had to hide it to stop me looking at it on the car....

Dyna 16-09-2011 09:56 AM

Nope, will still use the TA01/2 chassis for Rallycross, means i can keep some spares for that & the Top Force. Plus its a vintage chassis, for a vintage Rallycross shell :)

Pictures
 
We need to make sure we get some pictures:drool:, maybe even a video of the rallycross nights if they happen....???

Dyna 16-09-2011 10:06 AM

Yup, i agree Dave :)

It would be nice if we could get videos on all classes this winter, so put on here to show people what we do.

Has someone got a decent video camera & tripod we could borrow ? Put it in the corner and video away :)

JACKOR33 16-09-2011 11:00 AM

Series Dates
 
Whats the deal with tyres pete, we using the rally tyres from CML or going to Yellow rallyblocks like the micro's?
Is there anychance this series will start before christmas:thumbsup:

peetbee 11-10-2011 10:31 PM

Don't know at the moment Dave, I still need to get my car off DCM!
Focusing on getting the vintage up and running at the moment, but yes hopefully get a round in before christmas!

peetbee 13-10-2011 09:48 AM

TA05 received from DCM, stripped, cleaned, reassembled, electrics installed & bodyshell cut out. Just waiting on some bodyposts and other odds n ends and it'll be ready to roll :thumbsup:

Dave, I er, now no longer have those fastrax tyres so was going to chuck on a set of rallyblocks off my micro

What tyres is everyone else going to run?

mrspeedy 13-10-2011 12:33 PM

Good to see you got your going at last Pete .....:thumbsup:

I put new yellow rally blocks on my car but then felt guilty cos of the grip I had compared to everyone else :woot: so they've been replaced with an old knackered set of the same compound for a bit more slippage ..... :woot:

Balders 13-10-2011 02:24 PM

Its alright pete, we'll just wrap parcel tape round your tyres! :)
