Trucks used to have their own BRCA section back in the day, with truck Nationals and stuff. I remember doing the truck finals at Kiddy and breaking my associated every run in some bizarre way or another ........ then only just crossing the line in the 'I' final (yep, there were that many) before the pinion dropped off LOL ........ooooh, what a day that was

trucks are for girls. Real men drive buggies

Yes the trucks are cool! I had a FT T4 truck it was such good fun to drive, easier to drive than the B4.

If your interested in a truck series/meeting, why dont you have a word with the promotions rep

[Northy]

And who would that be?

[c0sie]

Id certainly be interested in an indoors meeting/series down South-like.

I find myself kinda getting addicted to 1/10th offroad at the moment lol

(However, I am still scared of grass, mud, astro and rain lol)

[Ashley]

none of that would hurt anyone

When Mr W ran his truck after one of the summer regionals it looked great fun; but coming back to a previous post about big jumps - it looked shite over the jumps on that track - no matter how many spuds it was given in flight it just wanted to land on it's roof?

Needs more talent?

Stu, I ran my X60 at York last week, first time I've ever run a truck. It jumped really well and was much more sensitive in the air than a buggy, I guess the effect of the massive wheels and tyres. Bradders had a go and made it look really good, as did Vermin (not typo), it wasn't until I gave it to the talentless Rich Lowe ( ) Who nose dived it into the ground from about 6 feet but still nothing broke

Anyway, they're a good laugh I think so lets get a sat night planned at York!

You said you wanted it strength testing!

At least I had a go at the chassis this time instead of ripping a wheel off

We need tyres

I got mine from DMS, though it then took the useless postal service 9 (yes 9) days to get them to me, finally arrived yesterday.

[DCM]

the thing that always put me off trucks was, lack of power to get duration, or power and dumping, so now with LiPo and Brushless, they are gone.... only thing left now, is tyres. When Academy brought it's truck out, we raced them at Caldicot once or twice, shearing half shafts etc, but the tyres were fab, slid everywhere and squealed too!!

[c0sie]

Would I be right in presuming that Schumacher do a yellow mini pin for trucks?

Steve, you just cant beat Caldicot for 'big jump tracks'

[Northy]

I can tell you a Novak 4.5R and 4900 Trakpower is too fast
