MOLD MODEL CAR CLUB

[ScottyDogWoof]

Hello people

I have heard a few times now that people see mold as a nitro only club.. This is wrong. The club runs indoor and outdoor venues. If the demand is there it does run in the summer at both venues too.

Our indoor venue is massive and has loads of space to pit etc. Class's are normally V12 and 1/10th buggys (with jumps...work in progress). we also get few mini stock, touring and few 18ths at times. The venue is british areospace in broughton about2-3mins from south a55 about jnc 35a i think. easy accesable from m53 m56 etc its about 4 miles away from chester on the welsh boarder. Come see us bring what you got.

The out door venue normally only runs in summer...longs its dry. We have normally only raced nitro because alot of the guys race at national levels so practise makes h finals lol ;). But we are normally open to race what ever you got.

Race nights are Thursdays @7ish earlyer if you want to help design the track. Its 2.50 to race.. 3 Heats and a final. Finish time depends on how fast we get started but never later than 10:30.

Any questions just PM me

Hiya Scott,

I didnt actually realise there was a track less than 5 mins from my work. What sort of lap times do buggy's tend to get? I think i'd be very interested in coming along. Also what tyres do most folks use?

I take it, id be fine with either my cr or xx4 ?

[Danny McGee]

Where you working Danny? Im thinking about going down after work

Im working for a company called Electroimpact. Were less than a mile from the Airbus site in Broughton. And we often nip to tesco for food!

What about yourself?

I think ill have a look tomorrow night and then prob race next week if i like.

[ScottyDogWoof]

lol small world eh.. Well we have suffered recently with not many people coming.. lap times are 9 to 10 seconds but we are using only half of what we could use. use what you like.. we are curently working on jumps etc and plans for more off road bit are on the way.. just have to make it worth while. Defo Come!

PM me and i'll pass you my mobile number. its litraly 30 secs in the car from tesco car park.

Lets not go there again. Just make sure its done right this time................ :mad:

Im looking at used, looking at the new shape though :)

[matdodd]

ill see what we have on site!
There some ace deals on pre reg ones as theres about 15 on site :thumbsup:

[Danny McGee]

Hiya folks, this is just a follow up on the MOLD club's indoor track near Chester. Its ace, Matt Dodd, Mark Stanley and myself are going to be racing there from now on, thursday night from about 7pm onwards. There's a LOT of room for a track that is 50% carpet and 50% polished floor, i had a quick go of someones car last night and the carpet is good stuff with the polished floor being the same as usual.

I think that the guys there are more than happy for us to design and build the track, with a few little jumps and more jumps to be added in the near future! To be hoenst i dont think they need many jumps cos the feature of carpet/floor is good enough for me.

Were going to shuffle things about a bit (if they let us) so we have a lot of space for both the track and pitting, with a fair few tables allready provided. They have power socks too from what i saw so no need to bring the trusty 12V (ah the good ole days)

Anyways, i thought id spread the word seeing as they have a great facility do use but not many folks to help out and race.

So who's up for coming down on thursday then? Seeing as the new season is upon us you know you need the practise. Let me know if you fancy it and ill sort you out with directions and number

Danny

[Kecky]

No comment:lol::p

We even watched a clip of Bruce Almighty with out tea and biscuits.

[Jonesy]

I posted on another thread about coming down so I'll be there next week. May have to take the 5.5 out of the CAT if it's only 10 second laps although knowing Danny's track building the laps may end up longer!!

See you then

[Danny McGee]

I'll do the best i can :), we knocked up a quick track last night that all the guys seemed happy with... ???????? is that fair guys???????? There is plenty of space once we move a few bits about. And its easily one of the biggest ive raced at for a mid week race (ever actually) so ive no doubt the track will be cool. Bear in mind its not just buggys that race they also have a mar"dave" section :p so we have to bear them in mind too, but with a bit of thought it'll be cool.

May have to ask the guys if there is any more material to mark out a track?????? :D but lets not run before we can walk.

Yep it will be longer than that. Im prob gonna run a 7.5 or 8.5 in my 2wd, nothing stupid :D

[Kecky]

I'm really looking forward to have the option of some mid-week buggy action :thumbsup:

[Jonesy]

That's very unlike you Danny :p

Sounds all good though mate, didn't even realise you lived up here, I'm working on Chester Business Park so I guess I'm only about a 2 minute drive from you!!

[ScottyDogWoof]

well we.ve been busy posting..cant belive there is as many people as you guys out there that havent been down before.

We have struggled with numbers so we havent invested as much time as we could have..but lots of ideas in the pipe line...so with a bit of support we should be a good club to come to.

ON THURSDAY JUST..LAP TIMES WHERE ABOUT 14SECS BUT IT WAS A TIGHT TRACK. I RUN A B44 WITH A 10.5 IN. i DO HAVE TO ADD I FTD'D AND WON FINAL BY A LAP....OR TWO I THINK. SO BRING ON THE GOOD DRIVERS!!

Any questions pm me.

Scotty
Track manager

[rcdunk]

you may have won it by 1 lap but not much more matey

the input from danny on the track was great he and others are welcome to build the track the more the better

oh and scott if they come next week they will kick your arse lol :p

[ScottyDogWoof]

lol...I'm afraid you under estimate me...One day i will become more powerfull than you could ever imagine !! ;) lol

Yup all are welcome, track builders, jump builder yater yater yater.

PM me if you need any info about times or directions.

(DONT MIND DUNK...he is just upset his padaw learner is now beating him lol)

[ScottyDogWoof]

this is an older pic but gives a metal picture of what we got to ofer..Pre jump phase

[Danny McGee]

Bear in mind that were gonna move the boards back about 20 ish feet to make it bigger :D

[craigosh]

Went last night, great group of people, great track but i drove awfull lol.
Had a 6.5 in and would say it was overpowered.

If your after some midweek racing can totally recommend checking this place out.
When they can use more of the hall it'll be even better.

Just a thought Scott, what if the mardave guys ran those rubber tires you can get? might work well on the vinyl and they can run on the whole track maybe!?! At formby the mardave guys run the full track and have pleanty of grip on the carpet with the rubbers on!
Would save having to move sections!

[ScottyDogWoof]

will ask.. dont want to step on toes really..good idea tho.. On the other had we've never had much trouble sorting out a 2 in 1 track. Not that i designed the track the other night but when i normally do only takes a 5 min working out.. but ideas welcome.. after last club nite the dubers found the little track we had was ample. They said they really enjoyed it so might get a little lost on a 18sec+ lap

[craigosh]

Yeah it was just a thought matey, i know some of the guys have been running the same rubber mardave tires for 2 seasons so for £8 pretty good value.

[ScottyDogWoof]

lol that'll ding dang do

[ScottyDogWoof]

These are photos from last week during setup.. Tho's of you coming this thursday needs to bring a pit towel to put on the tables. The tables we use are used for eating on during the week so as you can gather food hegine is important. So dont forget them

Just wondering if you guys racing buggys would like to cap motors at 10.5? Just to make it a lil more competitive..? You can run what you like dont get me wrong but would it be a good idea. Might save a wish bone or two too lol.

Scott

[Jonesy]

Looks good.

I've kinda shot myself in the foot with you guys this week, I can't make it unfortunately as I've got tickets for the Premier League Darts in Liverpool!!

Will be down the Thursday after though, the old man might be popping down to have a nosey.

The mildest motor I have is a 7.5 at the min so I'd agree there may need a 'capping' rule for future so I'll have to go out and buy at a later time (not that I'm trying to get too much involved!)

Jonesy

[matdodd]

Ill be there with me 7.5 in as thats the slowest thing I own on Thursday!
So we can see how undriveable it is :D

[ScottyDogWoof]

lol. we'll see eh.

Jonesy No worrys mate we'll be there next week.

scotty

[Billy Dutton]

I might pop down and take a look,if i can get away from work handy.

[ScottyDogWoof]

more the merrier ;) pm me for phone number if you want directions..think an earlyer post on the thread has seen some one put post code for sat nav ;)

[ScottyDogWoof]

looks like we are still on thursday despite weather. all clear lower north wales. so make sure you get down. ;)

[matdodd]

Billy get your self down mate Iv not seen you for ages!

[Kecky]

Will we be able to get through the snow still tonight :o

[ScottyDogWoof]

Hey Guys check out our new sub thread in the BRCA Nat/Reg section ;)

[Sion Wedley]

I should hopefully be down this Thursday. That's if I don't have 2 go and collect my rx8 from the garage on the thursday. But I'm a 10th electric on road driver. Can't drive off road 2 save my life. Will b running a b4 with 10.5 seen as I have a load of them spare from last years pro stock class.

Any set up/tyre advice would be much appreciated.

Also I'm in the Market for a 1/10th 4wd off roader. Thinking of a cat sx phill booth edition as I allready have 5 packs of lipos. Any recommendations?

Well as I'm a Schumacher team driver for touring cars I thought I would stick with them for off road aswell. Keep loyal. And I've got 5 core 5000mah lipos there doing nothing so might aswell put them to use in a cat.

Would that be the nosram esc or motor? As them dragon motors are known 2 pop. I've got some 10.5 motors for sale. New and used if your after one.

[ScottyDogWoof]

motor never smelt.. only the speedo! Stinks

[Sion Wedley]
