The jumps this year will be of a much more car friendly design.

Should also allow for much better racing and less breakages.

Those pics are from last year Mark. We should have news about the Naul today. We are hoping to have indoor astroturf this year instead of carpet, but we won't know till later in the week.

noreargrip 20-09-2011 03:04 PM

ah last year...lol....indoor astro.....that would be amazing...but dont care what the surface is really as long as we race....feels like forever since ive raced...id race on horse shit right now if there was a few hoses laid on it

dmcracing 20-09-2011 05:29 PM

Can be arranged Mark if you really want!:lol:Should be a cracking indoor season!

Hi Lads,


Don't forget to ask for help when setting all this up:thumbsup:

I love using power tools:lol:

Looking forward to meeting up with everybody again.


All the best

Kevin

I'll be in the Naul from 10.30am on Satuday morning.
All hands on deck!!!

Astroturf needs a load of strong lads to shift it into place

mixer 21-10-2011 08:40 AM

I'll be there for half ten:thumbsup:

mini_brian 21-10-2011 09:25 AM

Yep,

It all took shape today. Hopefully the jumps will be started on this week. Should then leave us nearly finished by next week-end.

Just back from the Naul, all I can say is WOW:thumbsup:

It's absolutely fantastic, best track I've ever seen in Ireland.

Well done to all the lads that worked on this during the week.

New Track
 
Just back after the first days racing at the new track, all I can say is well done to all who spent the last week building it , a great new facility for RC near Dublin.:thumbsup:
The new 210m works!!!!! and the 410 would have, if I tightened the front wheels properly :blush:
We also tried a Tamiya mini and it loved the track as well ,so if anyone is interested in running their minis come out next Sunday and a race and we can organize a championship for them.
Videos of the mini and buggies will be on the website soon.

The track is great. It was worth all the hard work moving that heavy astroturf:thumbsup:

The jump is perfect, tricky enough to get right but not so crazy to wreck cars:D

Thanks to Mick O'/Vicky for the video. Definitely more jumps needed :thumbsup:
Iano and I may go out on Saturday morning and sort it out ;)

Really looking forward to debuting my 210 tonight :wub

kartstuffer 03-11-2011 10:04 AM

Maybe one extra jump for now as the track has a good flow to it as it is, what about a jump and the a banked corner onto the straight??:D

A banked corner would be nice but not the simplest thing to construct properly. If you have an idea that will work and not cost too much then I'm all ears!

Hi Lads,

I think it would be good to have some mild (Will take note :D) movable jumps.

This would allow the jumps to be repositioned on a regular basis to keep us all on our toes.

I'll give a hand making these, I don't expect others to just magically make them:thumbsup:

Just my two cents.:p

Kevin
