Registration is now open for the 2013 oOple Invernational race - submit your entry request by clicking the logo above or visiting http://www.oople.com/rc/ooplerace2013/

Visit the race website here for more information:
http://www.ooplerace.com/index.html

The dedicated oOple supporters that are down for all three rounds of the oOple race series will be offered entries* - so if you've never got in, there is no excuse. 450-ish entries in 2012 for 192 places - there's not room for everyone but it's well worth coming just to watch and enjoy the saturday evening entertainment.

There is no secret formula - it's not about top drivers or who's the best. We aim for an even split of drivers from all abilities and run a fun and family friendly race. It's the best race you'll ever attend or I will eat some clay.


(*providing they don't prove themselves to be nobs)

Only problem I could see is you can only use proline tyres on the track, not ifs no buts.

I'm going to the worlds this year, and originally I was thinking I can't afford to go. Then the outdoor season started in Norway, and I watched some vids and pics from last years race.... I can't not go!!!

I put my entry in now, hope I can have some epic battles again this year, and more drinks with everyone!!

Thank you

Don't quote me on this. But if you are doing all 3 of the series and fill in the application asap you'll likely still get a spot. :thumbsup:

[jimmy]

Over subscribed yes - but not full no. Get your entry in.:thumbsup:

[thorny97]

thanks for that

[Stu]

More payment requests have gone out today, mostly to those that filled the form in early and have not had a payment request to date.

Our experience from previous years is that some folk never pay-up so due to some long tern non-payers there are now more place payment requests outstanding than actual places available.

1 - If you have payment outstanding get it sent ASAP.
2 - Entries finally close at about 8pm on August 9th.

[john333]

I'm paid up :thumbsup:

[johnboy]

With it just being over a month till oople invernational.

2WD Tyres which compound holeshots M3 or M4.

Fronts the ribs or holeshot fronts?

There was a mix of m3 and m4 in the A final at the recent meeting. Ive got both, think it depends on how dry/dusty the track is. Cant comment on fronts.

[Stu]

Neil dominated in 2012 using M3's.

[luniemiester]

Is there any chance of a list of paid up entries being put up as I still have no idea if my payment has been accepted properly after I paid through PayPal

[johnboy]

So that doesn't answer my question then as 4wd is very different to 2wd.

[Disco-Panda]

So that doesn't answer my question then as 4wd is very different to 2wd.

Personally for the rears id have a few pairs of each
M4 compound is softer than the M3's giving you the option to change if you need to.

& as for front 2wd tyres just stick with good old standards ribs! Never go wrong with Ribs.

[johnboy]

Thank you for the info

[Danny Harrison]

So that doesn't answer my question then as 4wd is very different to 2wd.

As I said, the A final had a mix of both m3 and m4.

This was in 2wd and 4wd to add to that.

Your welcome

John, choice in 2wd front tyres are the 4 Ribs, typically in M3, or scrubs again in M3: http://www.rccarshop.co.uk/index.php/wheels-tyres/1-10th-off-road/tyres/proline/pl8212-02-proline-scrubs-2-2-2wd-off-road-buggy-front-tyres-m3.html

I prefer the scrubs on my B4, they actually give a little less front end grip on the whole, but for me is the right amount of initial turn in. Both are good though.

I normally run M3 rear, but ran M4's last time I was on the dirt, and they were excellent.

Holeshot fronts are a 4wd tyre.

I believe you are free to use any proline tyre on the front in 2wd, holeshots only on rear.

[PaulRotheram]

Am I able to swap my entry from 2WD to 4WD please :) Confirmation of this would be appreciated.

[russmini]

Who's the official shop this year? And will there be other shops as per usual?

[Oscar]

Mike Parker from No.5 Designs has kindly supported the oOoos all year, so I believe the plan is for this to be the main official shop at the Invernational also.

[James]

Moss Models and Number 5 are the official shops.
