I happen to know Paul Worsley has worked really hard with some reagions to help build this back up and this is showing in the south east, east of england etc which is great!!!
Jimmy, you gotta do what you gotta do. Glad you'll be racing again next year and maybe return to the correct region  |
Mmmm well thats a bit less than the 90s, as they had up to 150 at certain occasions and a heap of people on the reserve. Well I guess not really much of a difference, only a small amount less. I made an O final on my first race at tiverton so i know from that.
But yes, its good to see you have come a long way, and was a bit surprised to read about you. Harris has always been in the mags since the late 80s to now so nice to see somone else making the news
If Wales has some good indoor venues I would be tempted. I did enjoy abergavenny, caldicot (my favourite), cardiff and newport race tracks and would turn up for them again.
Hey Dan, what servo, motor and esc are you running? What do you think of the brushless motors that are being run? Im curious as I havent the foggiest which way to go. If brushless are BRCA legal maybe better to go that way but I dont have a clue about how fast they are as its changed a lot since 02. I have the Mamba Max 5700 an goes like a 10 double with a fraction more accelaration but thats undergeared and not legal, so what is your opinion on the LRP/Orion motors?
