Best all round RC driver ?
 
Who is the best UK all round rc racer? It would be nice to see a 4way championship !!!
Based on the most popular classes;

8th buggy nitro
10th electric buggy
10th touring car
12th scale LMP

Personally I reckon a nitro 8th buggy racer would top the list

Probably Boots would be my choice (as he was awesome at the 8th Worlds last year).
Otherwise Lee Martin and Neil Cragg all up there as well.

Yup, total agreement,1/10th tc, carpet racers in both scales (forgotten what they are called) where hes won five worlds and beating the master Masami and he also tqd a 1/10th off road 2wd nationals ahead of Drescher, Jamie Booth, Ellis Stafford, etc etc. He can drive a brick quicker than most of us drive our cars plus a very nice bloke.

thats it, if we are looking for someone in the UK who can put a super strong drive in 10th,8th,TC and 12th he's the only one with A's and wins in every one

Craig Drescher my child hood hero :thumbsup:

I know he isn't British but I one watched Jorn Neumann racing a Durango dex210 at ardent raceway some years ago. He was either on 2 wheels or in the air and lapped the 2nd place driver Hupo Honigl at least once. I have never seen driving like it. He landed the car on the tabletop after the big jump on pretty much 2 wheels lap after lap. Totally amazing to watch. Craig Drescher was always my childhood hero but these days Neil Craig and Lee Martin must be the top British drivers for me.

I would put the late great phill Davies up there:thumbsup::thumbsup:

mark christopher 01-04-2017 10:00 PM

Would have to be david spashett, won 8th on road, tc, pan cars and many others just even in his more mature years took the 12th scale uk title.. Followed by dresher and jamie booth.both done on qnd off road disiplines, Not many of the recent top off roaders have done on road.

Non uk to me would be mark rienhard?

fil9144 02-04-2017 05:44 PM

Craig Drescher for me

Ckapp 03-04-2017 05:13 PM

I started racing almost 20 years ago and Craig Drescher always been the best driver. Just his driven style. So smooth but so fast. AMAZING
