Has anyone got a Durango servo horn to fit an ace servo? I bought one from JE as they had them in stock, parcel arrived today and now find it's on back order!! Not a happy bunny. Just hope it arrives tomorrow or Saturday, but thought I would ask as a back up.

[racingdwarf]

Yep, I'm at home to Mr kock up:lol:.NBC is next weekend

Not sure which one fits the Ace, but I have a complete spare set of horns, should be able to find one that works Colin.

[rcmodelweek]

I'm pretty sure ace are the same fitment as futaba.

[colin76]

Cheers John. 2wd built as well now, just the vintage one to repair trackside Sunday lol.

[michaelt4]

would like to race on 22nd, will ballistic buggys available on the day? what works on the front 2wd? what time do i need to be they and what the post code :confused:
cheers michael:thumbsup:

[SimonW]

Hi Micheal, If your running your B4 spikes or cut staggers on the front and green spikes in the wet. Check the FB page for a map.

I am pretty sure it has been mentioned before that Ballistics are available trackside, no doubt Barry or Colin will confirm this, although I am sure I have a pair in my box if not. As Simon said I would go with staggers on the front in the dry and green compound schumacher mini spikes if its damp / wet.

Not sure on post code, but the track is more easily found when turning into Stoke Road (right turn if coming from Mundford) from the A134 in my experience. The track is literally just south of Boughton Wood when using google maps.

[rcmodelweek]

Tyres available on the day mate, I can't remember the post code at the moment, but check our Facebook page, I think its on there, if not check out brca-eoe.co.uk as its on there. Look out for red brca signs on the A134 Stoke Ferry bypass.

Hi.

I'm a noobie and have been to NBC 4 or 5 times to race and I am wanting to come to boughton tommorow. I do not have a BRCA license or a transponder, and my lipos arent BRCA approved. Am I still ok to come down and play?

thanks

[Dazza B]

Tomorrows cake was planned to be lemon however if people would prefer chocolate again i need to know asap before Mrs B starts baking.
If noone replies it will be lemon :p

[Juttie]

[Dazza B]

I have 2 people wishing to race as well with no pt or brca.

[JohnM]

I know there are some hand-out transponders at Boughton, can't comment on the BRCA bit though.

[rcmodelweek]

We have hand out transponders for those without pt's. As for BRCA insurance, I believe you are allowed to attend two meetings without it, however, as an affiliated club we can sign you up on the day if you wish as we have all the required forms trackside. It is worth having, at just £15 for the year, it will cover you in the event of an accident, also most clubs require racers to have it, so if you fancy racing on any other tracks you will need it.

Usual procedure tomorrow, gates open 8:30, booking in until 9:30. 3 rounds qualifying, 3 leg finals, then presentation and cake :thumbsup: (thanks Mrs B!)

[michaelt4]

Thanks really need to know about brca as we are all coming from great Yarmouth, do not what a wasted trip.

[michaelt4]

:thumbsup:

[Juttie]

Durango 410 help needed urgent has any one got some steering knuckles and the small silver inserts that go into them i could buy off on sun thanks

[Dandare]

I'll be there 2moro.

If i'd known there was post race cake i'd have tried harder to attend Round 1 :cry:

[Juttie]

Please be aware the field is a little wet after all the rain so please take care when driving on and off the field thank u

[rcmodelweek]

I would just like to say thank you to all of you who attended todays meeting, it was a great days racing, helped out with some great weather. Without you guys turning up we would not be able to keep providing what I think is a spot on facility. With your support we will continue to improve the set up we have.

Well done to all of todays winners, Jonathon Brown in 2wd, Simon Watson in 4wd and John Myall in the vintage class.
Also thanks to Mr and Mrs B for another awesome cake!

I will get the full results posted up in the week, and update the championship tables.

Roll on Round 3!

Barry.

[jayropes]

Cheers Barry and crew, it's always a bit of a trek for us suffolk/essex boys but it's always worth it. Another wicked day's racing at boughton!!!:thumbsup:

[jcb]

Great days racing, cheers guys :thumbsup:

[JohnM]

Another great day at Boughton:thumbsup:

Just a shame my wheel nut came off when crusing to an easy win in 4wd:lol:

The vintage class should be good next time with everyone using the same motors to, low power is making me think about putting the Mini Mustang on the track:wub

[Skip]

It was a fantastic introduction to buggy racing - so much so I already now own a Durango LOL! :lol:

Thanks to Barry and John and all the team for the immense effort I know went into creating such a top class facility :thumbsup:

Roll on the next meeting! :D

[Juttie]
