wombwell car club next meeting 23th oct
 

hi guys just letting people know about the club to give the numbers a boost.

heres there website www.wombwelllargescalechampionship.co.uk

add the club on facebook too http://www.facebook.com/pages/Wombwe...97545896941234

this is an awesome on road track very big with a long straight they run 1/10th electric 1/10th nitro 1/5th petrol too.

at the moment were trying to get a 1/10th f1 heat up and running got 2 drivers so far with a 3rd person who is joining the action very soon.

be nice to see some extra faces down there too running touring cars.

if you need any more info pm me or use the contact us section on the website.

I'd be up for a couple of meetings with 10th electric touring.
I used to love racing 10th nitro back in the day at wombwell.

Mark

back in the day when they wernt too quick for you .......:p:lol::D

get yourself down to a few meetings and let people know about us too get the numbers up!

I think we should get Mr Christopher to come and race electric with us ?

see if he still got it lol

Used to go to Wombwell quite a lot before I went to uni. Do you use the full circuit for the leccy TC's? Or do you miss out that super far away top loop and use the chincany bit?

we use the chicane for the 1/10th's its used by the 1/5ths

Cool, will have to try and get down to the next meet. What does everyone generally run as far as motors go? I've got 13.5 and 10.5. I fancy 10.5, bet it would be awesomely fast with the space at Wombwell. I'd run mod but I'm not sure about my mod motor, think its a little dodgy.

well basicly its an open class so people use what they have 1 lad uses a 4.5t couple of others use 10.5t which they put in a similar number of laps as the 4.5t user faster isnt always better.and others used brushed around 15turns. i run f1 and use a tamiya silver can and managed to push 11 laps in the final average lap around 29secs were as the faster tcs push out 22sec laps

I reckon my 10.5 should do the job nicely then. Hopefully cya at the next meeting if I can make it.

My wet car was really fast until three and a half laps in when it turned out I hadn't waterproofed it as well as I thought I had lol. Silicon sealant next time!

lol didnt get to go as the misses was due wednesday to have a baby but still nothing and not allowed to race till end of march.+ looking at the results can tell it wasnt a good day for racing.

Do you guys run 1/8th ic there ?

they used to but it died out a few years ago if you email kev gosling on the wombwell site he could shed more light on the subject

If the weather is decent I'll be along with my electric car for abbot of practice !
I'll try and drag a couple of local lads too !

no problem fela going to see about racing anti clockwise to test the drivers thats if they fancy it anyway

there was a good turn out at wombwell today thanks to everyone who turned up was a good days racing gave the regulars a run for there money!

the results from today should be on the website soon i know i won the f1 even though there was just 3 of us.lol

was a good day , weather stayed good

too much horsepower in the first heat and stripped the spur but sorted it and got fastest quali in electric tc and the final win as well :thumbsup:

not as fast as your kid tho.....:p

yeah but only a stock motor Mark :thumbsup:

not a door wedge either :thumbdown:

speed for your self on the weather front everytime we went out with the f1's the heavens opened alittle on us every heat!

then i got mass interference on 2.4ghz in the 3rd round so got the munk on n gave in lol,sorted that though moved my receiver wire so was sticking up.

where was the f109 then was no competition in the f1 class mike stripped his spur so was using a wagon wheel lol so was proper slow n are gary wasnt much behind me with his f109,love the f103 no messing around like the f109s
