Default Clubman split classes ...

Think I'm going to bring a Tamiya tourer and an F1 next week ... Not much fun running tourers in with the faster F1's ...

Anybody have an idea if what they may run next week?

Think I'll go with the TT02 with foams as it was great and bring the 6 wheeler and Lotus for an outing just incase im the only tourer in the heat ..

Still a good laugh though, was it 15 booked in to the clubman class this week?

Reg, what pinion did you end up with on the F104 in the end whilst using the 21.5?

Scott

Not decided, the Mardave without the road hugging weight provided by the old batts is less fun. In the end I did manage 17 laps, but they were some very hard 17 laps What I am debating:

1) Stick with the Mardave.
2) Race stock buggy.
3) Try the TL01 again in Clubman.
4) Try the TL01 in touring with a brushless motor.
5) Do crawling at Radshape instead of racing.

Chris,

Sorted out the correct tyres for the F104 from ZEN RCmart .. I measure the originals and the F103 Tyres are the same dimensions as the F104W

I ordered some Super Softs as well as you said you wish you had to try .. lets see eh..

Scott.

To a certain extent everyone in some way a philosopher.

Particularly so theoretical physicists, they deal with the sort of problems that can lead them to question the nature of their existence and hence also tend to get lost in philosophical thought.
