Anybody got a tamiya night hauler they want to damage !

Chris long - I imagine yr sc10 will be quicker than my slash - but I have to ask will it be as strong? No rules means no rules LOL - dugra man andy should be good at this class eh budfish ?

I'll get the misses down with her camera / video - this will make some cracking YouTube material !

What's the dearest car available for this class ? If Tyson joins in he will need to know LOL !

No rules eh?

OK - screw the RC10T, I need a savage flux!

Anyway, I've provisionally entered this class, if it goes ahead and if it doesn't cost another £10 on top of my 4wd entry, which is why I appear on the booking in list as 4+.

So the class has its first entrant. Who else is going to step up?

Actually part of the argument I was working on for not having to pay the full £10 entry fee for the fun/trucks class was that it wouldn't be point scoring. I was even thinking that it wouldn't be raffle entering either.

Ie Race 2wd and 4wd, pay £20 and get two raffle tickets, plus trophy if you win etc. Race 4wd and Trucks only pay say £15, but also only get the one raffle ticket (for the 4wd) and no pots for wins in 'fun' class.

I don't know, maybe its just me. I love the idea, I want to take part, I just don't fancy paying a tenner each meeting just to dick around. But since the whole point is its not serious, we could make it cheaper and easier on Roger by dropping the 'serious' trappings.

This sounds about right.
I think we may get away with ONE raffle ticket per driver and £5 for each additional class. BUT I NEED TO KNOW BEFORE so I have time to sort the heats.

Well that saves me having to explain my cunning plan to you on Sunday at least

I reckon its fair, and will make the racing fun. In which case can you change my 4+'s to 4+T's then!

I'm going trucking.......

(Yes Budfish I will be using 'that museum piece' as you put it!)

Knowing the enormous grudge match this class is going to become I don't think that the speed of your car will have any influence on where (or more critically if) you finish in any way!

Forget electric 1/8ths - the best choice for this class would be one of those Tamiya tanks!
