talywain track
 

Dropped in at Talywain today and can confirm that the guys up there have done a sweet job of repairing and relaying the track. It looks pretty much the same as last year but all the whoops,doubles etc are now level and smooth. As for that unpredictable huge double at the far side of the track, well both approach ramp and landing ramp are now level and smooth(Owen cleared it every time with his sc10!!) Oh and for those who didnt like the bumpy straight..I can confirm its is now smoother than a smooth thing!
Well done to all the talywain guys:thumbsup:

boooo the straight was ACE :woot: my Tamiya never had a problem.... lol

I loved the old straight.. kept the blood pumping! Super fast now though

Yes we have made the track as easy as possible for you!!!, no nasty bumps or lips in the carpet, we have also profiled the jumps evenly for you!!!!
I know you 1/10th drivers struggle with the skill to find the fast line on a rallyX track.
Maybe next year you will try out big boy racing 1/8th!!!! :p

Whats all this we business?..you were lying down all day, the only time you sat up was to slurp the gravey off that plate!!;)

So youve made the track like a pool table for the 10ths?? Its gonna be ace when us truggy boys turn up!!!!

For the truggy nationals there will be an extra 3 lanes going onto the track of pure dirt/grass and some big air jumps!!!!!:thumbsup:
All the stuff 1/10 drivers don't like!!!!:p

Oh you mean all the stuff that breaks the little fragile "TOYS"

I love dirt/grass and big air jumps :confused: .......... way before 1/8th was around all we had was grass to play on, it's atro I hate :(

Maybe we should compare the lap times of the little toys agiinst the "big" toys!;)

im up for that!!!

me too, one thing is tho. The 8th 's actually have to go round the track and not just drive over those track markers like usual:p hahaha

ive mainly race truggy and we dont see track markers as boundaries, merely guide lines!!!

hahaha, i know. I like to watch truggy racing and see what new lines can be used when driving over the track:woot:

And to see how adventurous you can get in the air!! LOL

i dont mean to sound funny here but i dont get it the moneys that come from the little toy car event not needed? im sure another track would quite happily put on the event and not put down the class that the funds are coming from

Me and griff will make him pay for that:p

meat n 2 veg its only playful leg pulling nowt is intended!!!!:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Any pics of the updated track guys ??

It was ace last year. Tally was my first ever National and cant wait to go back :thumbsup:

Are you saying, Truggies actually use a track... and not just randomly go round lol

Big air ? Bring it on :thumbsup:

downslope is going up in the world:p

I do believe I read a challenge on lap times!!!!!!!
OK We will be having a few club sundays of which you will be all invited!! Who ever sets the fastest electric time using the full track not the girly half track you electric folks enjoy:wub. I will then lend you my RC8B with it's RB worlds engine!!! So you can compare....
hows that!!!!:thumbsup:
Oh and then I will lend you a brushless 1/8th either the RC8e or the 8.5e and see how you get on with that!!!!!!!:thumbsup:
But be warned I will be keeping evidence of lap times and taking pics of your happy faces with 1/8th cars

deal :thumbsup:

And if you want to go fast ill lend you MY rc8b with its Reedy engine!!! Oh and my RC8t and its Reedy engine

I saw some pics of the track last night, they have done a great job getting this track ready for the first national!!!:thumbsup:
And it looked smooooooooooth!!! Almost Ellis proof! haha

I am sure they will be posted in time:D

Owens def up for the axeman challenge....Just 13 and keen as mustard!! OOh shall we say fastest drivers get a lubly big free breakfast?:woot:

I quite fancy a bash at this too. Could be a new race format:woot::thumbsup:
What happens if we blow up the reedy? can it be replaced with an electric motor:p (kidding)

reedys dont blow up unlike tother make!!!

after neo ill be over at next meeting defo!!!!

Just picked up an RC8 today all hopped up, unpainted new shell 2 sets off shocks ready for it's conversion to electric!!!! Only prob is the conversion kit is on back order for three weeks!!!!

yeah I did see that on MB!! didn't want to upset uncle Matt with my shop drive!!

i wont tell him if u dont!!!

GRANT: Can I just point out that the only person on this thread that is directly involved with the club on this thread is Axeman. I promise you he is not knocking the 10th, he has worked harder than anyone to get the track 10th friendly. I've never even heard of the **** jacking the thread to knock 10th's

Axeman worked harder than anyone, roflmao :woot:

lol bunch of bashers

Axeman is a track building god!!!!!:thumbsup:

I think Axeman is making the track more 1/10 friendly as he is secretly plotting a return to 1/10 electric this season.... why, only on Friday he was reminising about the good old days when he used to race Cougars & Cats at Caldicot years ago ;)

And he was trying to shift some of his 1/8 gear too, i reckon to secretly buy more 1/10 electric gear.... :lol:

B44 me thinks I can't lie to you all!!!!!
