Cant beat a bit of the Wacky Races ... And i think you know exactly what im talking about Dave

Dont think your getting out of it that easily Craig Ive got new front castor blocks, front bulkheads, rear hubs and rear sus arm holders cast out & ready to go... i just put them in the tank when i was casting some of James' Lazer parts out. I think they should last you for a couple more races ?? I hope so, as ill run the TRX3 so will probably need them myself.

Only parts you might need extra are some new Traxxas ball adjusters - cheap as chips from Wheelspin Models for instance. Ok they are black, but hey, who cares if its on a runner ??

So, after all that work you'd better run it at least once more before you retire it

Right then - 6th November (this Friday) will be a round of our vintage competition -
so far entries include Optima Mids (SWB and LWB), Traxxas TRX3 and a Lazer
anyone else dusting their shelf queens off is welcome to come along

Peet...

Can I run a cougar 2..not sure what year that would be but bought it yesterday off ebay so hoping it will ok

Also if its ok, will depend on if it turns up in the post tommorow

[peetbee]

That would be ace!
Any pre-94 car is eligible so the Cougar 2 scrapes in there

In fact even if it doesn't arrive come over with the Cyber 10 and have a race!

[Dyna]

Yeah get the Cougar running and come over to us dood, its always good to have a good mix of buggies

And otherwise ill be the only 2wd running

[panch]

Guys cougar has turned up but think the diff is shot, only one wheel is spinning fully, the other is hardly moving...

Slipper looks like its wound right up so I think the previous owner was trying to compensate for it...

Will try and strip it down if I get chance later and if I can fix, ill be over

Cant run the Cbertonight im afraid, Got Kiddy on sunday and not many spares if I brake it !!

Fingers crossed I can get the cougar going, could do with a bit of indoor

[peetbee]

Oooh shame

Hopefully see you down our way soon!

So far the cars that have run are - Traxxas TRX1's & 3's, Kyosho Lazer ZX & Optima Mids, JRX2, RC10 tubs, Tamya Thundershot....

Lipos & brushless are fine and no limit on the motors or tyres or anything else tbh.... Just be prepared for some interesting race lines from the ' Belsten Brothers' who are quite prepared to cut a few corners, or indeed half the track to win

I have got loads on at home & work atm so i wont be down again for 2-3 weeks but both the Lazer and Traxxas TRX3 are ready to run

He he yup Daves lines were different.....
