Default This seasons vintage weapons

Not 1700's samurai swords but the car(s) I'll use at the York vintage this year. Both are very nearly all done now so thought I'd put a couple of pics up.

Very happy with both cars, I've managed to source a 19t and 27t stock motors so am covered for whatever rules we decide, speaking on which when are the dates coming out G?









Dan

I know Dad's got some "weapons"... but I think he'll need a bit of encouragement to get himself down to race them!

Emily and who might she be ????

Dan what shocks are on your rc10?

Mine has a gold cloured chassis.But, did not have any shocks on it. I got shocks with it but they look like the yellow Kyosho ones. There are some others in the box which are gold in colour. Which ones Hmmm? Its also got rpm wishbones and pivot blocks. Still eligible for york????

Dan, it's Jim's wedding next week so we will all be having a bit of a get together, we'll talk dates.

Does anyone have any preference.

York saturday nights worked well last year, but I'd like a couple of sunday meetings also, possible Tesside if they'll have us.

Another Endurance team?

Possible a heat at the ACES?

I'd like to see enough entries for us to be able to run a 19t & 27t heats.

All sounds great Stu, I might enter both classes if I'm allowed? 4wd 19t and 2wd 27t, might be others that want to do the same?

Vintage endurance was great last year though I'm sure we all left saying we would prefer t use our normal kit this year. If our team of last year was to be reunited I couldn't say no though

Well I for one want to run the 6-gear in 27t and the JRX-2 in 19t.

I just wish I could get a proper body for the JRX-2 .

Dan,

Looks fantastic, but I am curious why you cut away the battery holder at the front. Was it due to the batts being bigger? Im still working on my MIP legend and if thats the case I am gonna have to drill more holes on the chassis to make them fit. Any way if you need a new one Ive got a spare lying around
