24th July racing (today)
 

what a cracking days racing,top class fun in the final (carnage springs to mind)first couple of corners and there were cars an trucks all over the place and i managed to slip through into second :thumbsup: unlucky chris with the shock tower and getting an ass kicking off your dad lol, Great weather and great atmosphere, thanks to all and hope next week will be as good,:D Cheers all:thumbsup:

Now you just have to win the 2wd A final to improve Dave ;)

It was a cracking day's racing. Wonder why we had such a small turnout considering the weather though?

1st is next on my books,(i wish) :lol: cant understand it m8,get a better turn out when it rains?? just hope next week will be a better turn out.

I was away for the weekend, Sounds like i missed a great day!

cracking day m8,no rush,no fuss just a chilled day with some great days racing,nice to see a vintage subaru justy (i think) giving the track a good running,great fun, :thumbsup:

Cracking day yeah :lol: shagged my durango showing off!

Completely rebuilding it as we speak

It was a Tamiya Subaru Brat, and for three corners it was ahead in one heat :lol:

I wanted it to win shame it couldnt get up the table top :D

it was a good day in all i may have broke not 1 but 2 shock towers but gained a PT so not all bad ill be back fighting fit next sunday

ive destroyed my pt :lol: was experimenting and opened the case....now i have a carbon effect case on the way....dont open pts :lol:

My pt never had a case to start with!

i took if off to try and pack it behind the servo at the front of the durango but soon found out it still wouldnt fit :lol:

nice carbon replacement on the way though

have you ordered a bucket full of them mate :lol: ,5.5t motor in your vintage losi is going to take its toll on it all.
still to beat me yet mate,you cant keep making excuses :lol: just kiddin,
steves got his 4x4 runnin now,like to see it on sunday blastin round.

I think we need to check truck type and assign to the correct heat - can't be having all these 4wd trucks in with the 2wd buggys.

Besides guys just wait - Johnny says he's repaired his Hyper 10SC and I tell you that thing is mental. When he realises there are 4wd SCT's to compete with you guys are in for a world of hurt.....

Nah - first few meetings on the new track I was running a 5.5t in my somewhat older RC10T.

the losi should handle the raw POWER better than the b3 but gonna go easy rather than take risks get use to it first plus the b3 will be back up and running first the losi is my next stage car plus its still all clean and new i dont want to break it yet lol

i was gutted for chris after he broke the 2nd one,dont like seeing any car out of a race,the more on the track makes for better racing,nice to see his dad back in the action after a long time out,
is the RC10 a stronger car than the Losi? ive only ran an owned a B4.1 since coming from 1/5 touring cars racing at mendip,very nice on road track.

has your dad started building his new car yet,
will you be up and running ready for sunday mate :thumbsup:

4wd sct parts are ordered . hopefully here in time for oople
definatly gonna be running in time for the next meeting
be worried boys its an animal .
and im locking the diffs for ultimate drift power
been missing the carnage of trucks glad we got some truck lovers again

If this SCTE doesnt handle great i'm gonna be all over the place... its insanely fast. At least it shouldnt parachute as much as the XXX-SCT coz its about twice the weight.

Chris, you know you need to turn that into a XXX-SCT-Kinwald ;)

I have just got myself a t4 and vaughns got the ultima sc so hopfully mine will be here for the weekend for more truck carnage;)

My blitz needs a full rebuild, cant get it done in time for this weekend. Debating wether to try my new electrics in the bmax or not.

Its starting to sound like we'll have a truck destruction derby going on...

make sure you dont clear the table top an go through the fence with that new
truck mate, :lol: think we should get ramp out an see how high you can make it jump:drool: :lol:

im seriously considering a sc truck for this track also!

me too,ive got all gear to get 1 running so been looking at the new ansmann truck kit,cheap as chips think its based on the mad rat,should be fun :thumbsup:

just out of interest, how many are turning up on a club day?
ill be an addition this sunday if anyones coming

you should get one mate if just picked one up a ae t4 team with 2.4 radio fusion esc and 10.5 motor like new for 80quid of flee bay I am just going to race with vaughn for a laugh on a sunday

Tryout my XXX-SCT on Sunday, you can just bind it to your Spektrum.

another car! you got more than me! haha!

i don't like the SC trucks, but i may get hold of a stadium job if everyone else is! il just put truck wheels on the rango!

sc is just pure bash each other out the way fun!

Average is around 20-30 racers over all the classes

Buds

a normal day gets 20-40 racers

wow, last time i went, we struggled to get 6 racing!

sc trucks are great fun mate vaughn was flying at bury the other week with his plus less breakages

I must admit they do look rock solid!

alot more bashing out the way if your to slow :lol:

might add the durango sc to the list at somepoint :lol:

Its so much less hassle now with 2.4ghz, brushless and lipos, a lot of people are coming back to racing.

Yeah, the "rubbing" adds a whole extra dimension to racing, all without the wheels getting tangled up or things breaking. Last week was my first time out with the SC, but i'll be sticking with them.

Trucks just drive 'differently'. Bumps are easy, jumps too but tighter corners more tricky especially with the longer SCT's.
Truth be told if Tishers running a T4 trucks is pretty much wound up already - it will be tough to beat that. Stadiums are slightly shorter, have fatter wheels and bodies that don't parachute meaning they are a little quicker than SCT's on our track. In effect a T4 is an SC10 optimised for a tight, grippy track!

That SC10 4x4 needs a sensor wire. The motor has a sensor port so I take it its the esc that doesn't. Would solve all the cogging issues.

I need to track down another XX4 to build a new SODA truck don't I? That thing was awesome: basically a 4x4 stadium truck.
