yes m8, this sunday.
Scotty....

Ok ta Scotty never got email about booking in and nothing about it I not raced since oOple

Looking foward to this round weathers looking good as well :thumbsup:

Looking forward to it. Dare we believe it's going to be dry?!? :o :thumbsup:

Can't believe the last round already. Going to be suffering withdrawal.

I might pop along and have a go. just a drive no racing

emails are now sent, I was on holiday until today, first thing I did when I got up (after shower and brekky obviously) was send the confirmations, everyone should have them now.

All the more reason to do the f3.4.5 finals Jason!

I am looking forward to tomorrow, it WILL be dry. :D

I'll be at the hall from 6:30am tomorrow morning so doors will be open from then

Awesome weather and a great day's racing, though I think I should have put some suncream on :o Congrats to all the trophy winners.

Loved my first year racing in SORC... already looking forward to 2013!! :thumbsup:

Agree Jason, was a really good meeting. A huge thanks to John again.

Great season and can't wait for next year.

Dave

Yes, a great meeting once again, so many thanks to John and all at Falkirk. Also congrats to all the series winners, especially our new double champ Davie Smith.

Totally agree Darren, it couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke.....

And modest with it too......

Well done to John Allan and the falkirk guys for today's meeting. Liked some of the track but some bits not so much but it's variety that makes a season and it's the same for all.

Well done to Davy for the double.

Well done Martin for his 4wd 131 today. Good skills.

Congratulations Dave on doing the double.
You drove all of the 47 cars you have owned this year brilliantly.

:lol:

Yip, I can drive anything me!

Yup, well done on the double Dave. :thumbsup:

What kind of numbers are you getting at a meeting these days? In the late 80/90's it got to a point that we were turning away drivers. 120 per meeting was possible for a while. Drivers were coming from all over the north of England too. Good fun, but ultra competitive!

It would be good to build it back to those levels again. It should be possible - 10th electric buggies should be the most popular class in R/C racing - reasonably cheap, quiet and versatile.

Listen to me, I'm just considering having a go at this again and I'm already preaching. Please excuse me...

Jimmy Hamilton

Hi Jimmy,

Good to hear from you again.......yes those were the days, I still remember our close race at SDRCC when they had a permanent track :) Funny how you used to beat me up here and then I would return the favour at Hetland Hall. I won my first National there when I stopped the 2 Jimmy domination in 1989 :thumbsup:

I have never really stopped racing off-road since 85 always having at least 1 race per year usually the Belgium GP which I attended over 15 years on the trot :woot:. I have just sold all my on-road kit so I will only be racing off-road moving forward (on-road was always a distraction and no where near as much fun :thumbdown:). It would be great to see you back I'm hoping to do the SORC next year, we just had way to much on this year what with trying to race on-road as well. Hope your going to race 2WD?

George Haining

Hi George!

Yeah, I noticed you were still 'at it'! I'd love to make a comeback and do the SORC next year, but would probably opt for 4WD as a starter. I'm prepared to be amazed at how bad I'll be!

I'm doing all the research (nosey poking) at the moment trying to suss out all the LiPo/brushless stuff.....

Talk again soon!

Jimmy
