Dont understand why more dont come?

Any ideas?

[bigred5765]

southport was on, and being as theres a national there, most people would chocie that option and go practice, now next week we will all be at bury metro

[shanks]

They announced some indoor dates ages ago, thought that meant the indoor venue was booked, maybe not!?

Theres a few of us planning to go to Bury this comng sunday

As quite a few of us are doing the Mid West regionals / Nationals this year its been difficult to get to club meets..

Im always a phone call away and im available evenings and sat afts (as are a few others!) if track maintenance is required, but we never get a call..

Cheers

me!

[rob m]

i will be there sunday.hope to beat the 4wd,s this time(meaning tysons mate sorry forgot name)i will be getting there about 10-10.30 to tidy track for half hour,do some weeding or anything to improve the look of the track.dont have access to tools though.can any one else make it a bit ealier? im guessing people are not coming due to the track looking rundown/tired.but it is a good track

[Chrislong]

Just want to say it was an excellent event today, that track was cool in preparation and layout (quite different to usual) and im really pleased so many turned up.

Next week is the national at Southport, so ofcause nothing will be on at Bury, but the following weekend (26th July) is the Bury regional which I am looking forward to.

Also, dates for your diary at Bury are August 9th & 16th. Hope all will be there!!! (although I already know I can't make it to the 16th August )

[shanks]

Was a good weekend - pity i had problems with the escuchen dubery in my shocks otherwise i would have beaten Chris Long - next time maybe...

[bigred5765]

was a great weekend,thanks to everyone that turned up,track was ace and is a tribute to all the hard unpaid work that roger puts in, big thumbs up,we need to get more people coming on a regular basis, and get club member ships up to,any ideas comments,??

[T4miy4 Guy]

My first time racing at a track and really enjoyed it even tho i came last (at least now i know the weak spots of my DB-01) so i`ll get these sorted for next time.

All in all a good day and nice to meet a friendly bunch

Well i say friendly... nearly got a Traxxas slash in the face at one point but that was my bad for doing repairs in a daft place

Cheers Andy

[Chrislong]

Hey Andy,
The Tamiya looked really cool, shame all the ballcups seemed a little loose and popped off so easily. There must be an option of different ballstuds and cups which hold better. Somebody in the Tamiya section is bound to know.

Carl, I reckon SC10/Slash/Strike (short course truck) racing is where it is at. Im getting one to cut costs at club racing, I think its the fun we all need!!!! Im just going to get an SC10 and bung in whatever spare stuff I have lay around with a 7.5R Novak brushless.

Chris

[bigred5765]

now that sounds a ace idea chris sc 10 heat at bury matty will be up for that im thinking,

[madmax]

kyosho ballcups fit the tamiya and are a hell of alot stronger.

i think in the states they have a series setup and run a 13.5 in them to keep the racing close

[Chrislong]

Well thats what im talking about, I can limit top speed with the 7.5 so to keep it fair. I don't want to have to spend on a new motor though LOL.

Carl, they're a scream, we can get them out in the evenings at nationals and tear up some grass around the fields. Perhaps with Craig Haggis and Michelle Griffiths, , add LED light kit etc... cool
