Racing Sunday 28th March 2010

[mikeyscott]

Racing this weekend and after a great weekend last Sunday. Weather was pretty good, track was grippy a bit wet, but all in all a great morning.

Sound and laptop issues are now resolved which means better racing!

Mike,
I'm in, I will be debuting in the 4WD with the XX4, If i can put it all back together again after i busted the front bulkhead. I think i will put the solid chassis on too if i have the time.
Failing all that i will be using the X6.
See you there.

Cool.

My only option is the Cat SX as I've sold the Tekin RS Pro in the B4 and have a Speed Passion LPF on it's way. It won't be fitted until the Cougar SV turns up...

Chaps, please keep an eye on the weather and fingers crossed.

[mikeyscott]

Weather isn't looking good so I'll help run the meeting, but I'm afraid the Cat SX will stay tucked up in the dry and warm this weekend..

[dibble34]

I'm in as long as it's not raining. B4 again if i can put it back together in time!

[mikeyscott]

Stays dry the Cat may stretch it's legs. SteveB is going 2WD I think

[dibble34]

The weather looks ok first thing, i am little worried it may rain just at the end. Tell Steve he can't, as i am racing 2wd :p

[mikeyscott]

Losi XXCR I think...

Cat SX is too much work to clean compared to a 2WD. I'm not racing 2WD as I haven't got an ESC for it at the mo.

[mikeyscott]

Weather is looking ok now until tomorrow lunch time. Fingers crossed and hope the track is good :)

[mikeyscott]

Don't forget clocks go forward

Cool. See you nice and early then! Tony racing?

Speed Passion kit is ace as is Tekin. I'm just changed from Tekin to Speed Passion due to more people using it. Software updates on SPs are sh1t though compared to Tekin.

I was highly impressed with my SP last week running a v3 7.5

Don't mod the wheels, change to a Cat SX ;)

Ballistic Pinks tomorrow I reckon or Schumacher mini spikes. But it all depends on your setup.

[jamiekerr14]

haha yea still got the Losi motor.. but sold the losi esc.. for same price as good condition SP.. so was happy with that. yea- I did have some Yellow Ballistic Spikes.. But-had a front wheel nut come loose=Chewed Wheel hex.. so there shot.. until cba to remove them and put them onto some new rims.. so its Yellow Mini Pins.. or Holeshots :woot:

Yea Tony is coming down tomorrow!.. just hope it dosnt rain to much early morning before we start

[mikeyscott]

I think it's forecast to remain dry over night. Fingers crossed..

So who's quicker you or Tony?

Steve B is def doing 2WD, so I expect it'll be Dan Brown on top of 4WD and the rest of us bringing up the rear.

Anyway see you in the morning, nice and early please.

Also for any novices and new chaps we'll be running a seperate novice race if numbers are good enough. Enables you to get round with less stress..

[jamiekerr14]

haha um... good question.. Tony is probably slightly more consistent..but then again.. not used to this smooth leccy stuff :D
Think trying to get there for 8:30:thumbsup:

08:30 would be a good time and help us.

Cool. I'll be racing the Cat SX now.

[Randall34]

I'm in Mike, just come in from the shed, XX4 ready to roll. Using tomorrow as a shakedown. Either that or use the X6 still dirty from last week.
Either way see you there.
