Chaps, weather isn't looking very good at the moment. If it's saying as is at the mo, I'm not planning on running.

No worries mate have a good one and fly the TORCH flag!

Steve and I are going to Petit as Team Titchfield or something like that

My run tomorrow won't be that good as I've done nothing to the car all week. Mean't to Mr Ralls set-up on it.

Kev at Decal Designs would be able to sort that out, but we'll need a cool logo to send him. I know they are really snowed under at the moment, i've had a decal sheet on order for 4 weeks now. But the decals are very good and well worth the wait.

Looks like a shed load of rain overnight and then a bit in the morning..

Mmm not good.

EPR is hoping to run tomorrow, we will wait for the rain to clear to race, if it is raining, so if you get to your track and can't run, give me a call and you maybe can come to us!!!

Looking very wet here in Fareham at the moment, not looking good for the morning.

Do we have a cool logo or any ideas?

I get the old RC10 gold tub chassis out tomz, will love the wet conditions and go around like a tank. Done loads of work on SX this week, would be a shame to drown the cat:cry:

I will be digging some more drainage around the track, if too wet to race, so will be attending either way. So would not mind the held fellow racers help????

what we need is a few days without rain, with one car (brushless b4)
i can't take any chances on my electrics ,i guess i could put a spare car on my list to santa :) i have already put a losi micro crawler on it fingers crossed i know it may seem strange but i fancy trying one.
good for a bit of fun and thats what its all about .
i hope some of you got a few races in .

Very low numbers, but I think those that ran enjoyed it.

I didn't run, too much £ in the Cat SX

Was good fun,
Just tried the front one way in the B44 it's made a difference not sure whether it's for the best or not, it felt quicker but it's a job to tell when know one else is on track.
Thanks to Steve & Mikey for marshalling and timing

Tony, yours looked like it went well and your lap times were good. 4wd is where the competition is these days. What LIPOs do you run again?

26.59 was your best lap today in very wet conditions. I know it's 2/3 secs a lap slower than Steve B, but certainly good in my view

Great day's racing, guys :). Bit short on numbers, but considering it was still raining at 8 I'm not surprised. Still yet to break any electrics, touch wood.

Li-po's are the new Trakpower dark series 4650.
It felt very nice to drive and i would, i just need to sort out the consistantcy or rather lack of :( you need more than one quick lap to be at the front, might try some new tyre's next time.

Nice, may look at these next year for the 2WD.

Indeed I'm consistant, just not quick enough...
