Racing - Sunday 20th March 2011
 

Hopefully a nice drier track this weekend. I'm planning on being back this week.

Got some things to test etc this week. So if I'm bottom of the results it's because I'm testing (well that's my excuse ;) )

Planning on dusting the 2WD off for some outside action. First time with the 2WD since last September (but I am liking the Durango, even if it is a brut)

It will be my first race this weekend!!! Does any one have a second hand brushless esc for sale and some dean to tamiya adaptors for sale also crystals?

Hi,

Have you got further details please:
What sort of budget and what brushless motor do you have?
What transmitter / reciever are you using?
What LIPOs are you running re batteries etc. If you're racing my advice is to move away from the Tamiya connectors as they can't take the heat (depending what you are running)?
What class is this kit for, 2WD or 4WD?

Weather is looking good this weekend :thumbsup:

Cheers,

Mike

How long will this weekends race meeting be?

from around 09:30 racing to about 13:00. People arrive at the track from 8am

Summer Series will be the first all day meeting.

To add Mike, we get 4 - 5 qualifiers in and 1 final mostly 7 minute finals if all request.

Steve

I am all new to this so I will bring what I have Sunday so will ask for your advice then thanks see you Sunday

I'll be down, concentrating on 4wd leading up to the first regional.

Though, I must fix my broken cougars...

Also, we'll have the Losi 22 new kits available trackside. £194.95, thrust cash into our hands for them please!

not sure what to break this weekend :confused: loveing the cougar at the mo but the cat is so much better :thumbsup:

I'll go for lucky dip. Depends what I break/sell/buy or get bored of

u got some nice cars 2 choose from mike i would have a few more my self if i had the funds sure i will have a few more by the end of the year lol :thumbsup:

the weather looks to be taking a turn for the worst :thumbdown: but still predicted to be dry come Sunday.:thumbsup:

looking forward to racing on the new and improved track plus the feedback from the drivers who haven't experienced the new table top and the kicker thats being just used as a hump for the moment.

Should be fine and I expect the grip to be good on Sunday.

I won't be "racing" Sunday as I'm going to be testing to determine which car I'm bored of now.

Sunday will be a test session

Cougar SV for sale trackside Sunday - interested come and see me

Are you going to be "testing" with Steve's:thumbdown:(or is it yours Mikey:thumbsup:)the Tamiya 511?!.

the kicker more of a speed ramp cant see how else you can go over it with out ending up on the wrong side of the track or your roof lol

No 511 testing. Something else, whilst I await for something else to arrive etc.

Patience ;)

well i do hope you stick with your rango, some close racing sometimes with you Mikey :thumbsup: great fun

lets hope it continues with your 511

Prob abadoning planned testing and just doing test runs on the Durango for stotfold. Dunno yet, haven't decide yet. Got a few things to sort on test car, but can't be arsed. Been a crap week at work

I don't own a 511 either.

I'll be running my Durango.

New ORCA Vritra speedo to test, and get a decent outdoor setup sorted.

But mainly, I'll be just practicing using my thumbs. That's the most important thing!

Full shop will be with us tomorrow.

Results are now online

Good turnout considering Clanfield boys running.

Well looking at the results my day was totally crap.

Look forward to next weekend for some further 4WD before Stotfold, if it's crap again Durango bonfire!
