its only been going 2 weeks as yet, but we are pretty much stock. but we have races involving aound 5-6 people x2. then we split them into A-B finals. because there is no timing equipment, they count laps. its a really friendly atmosphere.

bring wot u got northy, b good to see u there!

great stuff. anyone else coming?

jimmy 06-02-2008 11:10 PM

good laugh tonight - it was a BIT mental, very tight track and savage racing! haha. No jumps sadly, to cater for the 18th scale rally cars etc I guess.
Got the Xray M18T Pro working nicely and even won the a final by 2 laps! bargain - well worth 4 quid! :thumbsup:

not bad at all, i came joint second so was worth it for me. but yeh, very hectic and dodgem's style racing, especially with the b final.

MRD 07-02-2008 10:38 PM

Good night, could do with not cooking two motors again tho, gets expensive :wtf:, lower gearing and no more lipos me thinks.

jimmy 07-02-2008 10:44 PM

haha, 2!!!! maniac. I had to break out the heat sink - and my motor didn't smell too nice after the final. That track was a bit savage in terms of stop-start-stop on all those hair pins! good tho, I'm sure I'll be back
