So among my many questions are:
When do you race now - I recall it used to be every Wednesday evening and Sundays?
Which are the competitive cars nowadays?
I always raced 4wd, is that still the main grouping?
Would any of the old equipment I have be transferable? 112b era stuff.
Is there any call for the old stuff anywhere?
I'm sure your answers will only give me more questions but perhaps you'll see me as you come round to lap me at some point in the future.
Thanks

Personally i would pop down to the Bury indoors event or Southport sometime and have a chat with some of the lads!
I do like the old RC`s but i really wouldn`t bother as Si demonstrates how poor these perform on a regular basis
Come down have a chat then invest in either an RTR or buy a race spec buggy, as in my opinion you will be throwing money away,the old buggys etc really aren`t very competitive anymore (although Woody would probably disagree) plus you will probably break it and would find it hard to sauce the parts, let it live the rest of its days as a shelf queen
Hope to see you soon over a Bury
