yup pretty epic days racing. I'm so glad I stayed until the end, after failing to finish 4 heats. I managed a 4th place in the final, despite the cutting out I experienced as well as snapping a servo mount towards the end.

already ordered deans connectors, another lipo and alu servo mounts

the only reason i feeling drawn to 8ths/5ths. is the sheer amount of track time you get. i would only race electric 8th if i did any way. NITRO SUCKS.
but 2 stroke is ok (5th scale)

who else feels that 5 min is to short now we have brushless and lipo
at the enduros we all run 10 min or more. at indoor nights 5 min works but when we got all sunday surely we could push it a bit

how about 7 min qualifiers
9min finals

the five rounds and a final works well to but how about extending the pleasure by a couple of min . its hardly gonna put loads of extra time on.
2 sets of batteries and were sorted
what do you think boys are we moving with the times and technology or what . or do i need to buy a BIG car to satisfy my urges


ps i fixed buds last night. digitally.........

Id agree with this, as a first time 5 mins flew by! Id say 6 mins and a 10 min final to give you chance to catch up
