The 210 RTR is actually £169 not £180. But whether its a better buy than the H2 is debatable - the RTR version has the flexy and fragile DIMEC chassis and the electrics are a rather slow 13.5t (max 9.5t) system so it would need upgrading pretty quickly. Also the RTR is actually rear motor so you'd need to buy a few parts to convert to a mid motor which is what you want for Goshen - and most other tracks in fact.

That said I've seen 3 H2's running at meetings now and all 3 have retired due to breakages so maybe the H2 needs some bits too!



Best to come down and see what people are running. There is normally something for sale, and you can get a feel for whats popular. The big advantage of something like the 210 is that many of us use them so you don't need to set it up by yourself.

Short course has gone a little quiet but I think its a phase thing. Last year we had a good truck class but it really boiled down to a few drivers who were really into the class and this encouraged others. When they moved to buggys the class kinda died. If we get a few more hardcore truckers it will soon revive though.
