Next Vintage Round
 
Not overlooking our vintage racing, we need to schedule the next round, is everyone ok with the 30th October?

I understand that Matt has some spares to mend Craig's Traxxas so we may get a good mix of cars this round.:thumbsup:

Dyna 12-10-2009 03:18 PM

Unfortunately i cant make the 23rd or 30th Oct due to prior commitments, but if you have enough people then race by all means and ill wait 'till the next round in November.

What happened to the other 2 or 3 RC10s and your old Losi JRX that were seen in the first round or two then never seen again Pete ?

Belsten 12-10-2009 03:21 PM

30th is good for me

Well, one RC10 was Balders and he's favouring his Lazer these days, I'm not sure why Si Osborne stopped running his RC10 and the Jrx went to JMaggs, hopefully he can make the next round.....

Balders 20-10-2009 11:03 AM

At the moment I'm not 100% if I can make it, got a few things going on at home which will dictate my racing over the next few weeks. I'll let you know either way though..

I'm hoping to have either the RC10 or the Lazer ready for action for this though..

I don't mind if you want to bump the date a week or two though, dependson everyone else like?

Belsten 20-10-2009 01:06 PM

I cant do the 30th now :mad:

blue_pinky 21-10-2009 04:02 PM

I'm not a def either...

...also thinking, it could be yet another class to add to the Christmas bash...if enough people were interested???

Or is interest slipping a little in vintage?

Balders 22-10-2009 08:40 AM

Interest is still there!

I reckon its just we are all busy boys and getting the time to come to club let along sort out our vintage cars has proved rather difficult of late.

:bored:

jimbo007 22-10-2009 10:28 AM

I will not be about on the 30th as i am having a leaving doo in work beer:drool::drool::drool::drool: but jrx all ready for action if i can come out to play friday will be there.

peetbee 22-10-2009 04:11 PM

TQ and win for me then if no one else can make it:woot::woot:

On a serious note, lets reschedule this round for November - can we start taking votes on the most suitable dates?

Big G 22-10-2009 05:21 PM

what sort of cars and track are you running the vintage race on?

are there rules to the internals? cos I only have lipos lol

Dyna 22-10-2009 06:33 PM

Rules are sort of easy... pre 93-ish, so no RC10 B2's, Losi xx's, xx4's, Cat 2000's.

So far the cars that have run are - Traxxas TRX1's & 3's, Kyosho Lazer ZX & Optima Mids, JRX2, RC10 tubs, Tamya Thundershot....

Lipos & brushless are fine and no limit on the motors or tyres or anything else tbh.... Just be prepared for some interesting race lines from the ' Belsten Brothers' who are quite prepared to cut a few corners, or indeed half the track to win :lol:

I have got loads on at home & work atm so i wont be down again for 2-3 weeks but both the Lazer and Traxxas TRX3 are ready to run ;)

Belsten 23-10-2009 08:09 AM

Are you still bitter Matt, jeepers would have thought you would have got over it by now :woot:

GRIFF55 23-10-2009 08:30 AM

No change there then belsten!!! You know what i mean CHAMP!!!!:p

Belsten 23-10-2009 08:32 AM

I never realised so many people could still be so bitter

GRIFF55 23-10-2009 08:46 AM

:lol: i'm more of a lager man ta! But if your offering!!

Dyna 23-10-2009 09:23 AM

Bitter ?? Bitter ???? I was robbed of the win guv'nor :lol: :p

In fact it was fecking funny to watch, people doing 6 second laps in 20 year old buggies.... :lol:

peetbee 23-10-2009 07:34 PM

Well, as the lap counter is set to 12 second minimum laps the cheating didn't really work:p

Dyna 27-10-2009 06:37 PM

Soooooo do we have a date yet for the next Vintage round ?

Talking to Dave B ( one of the Gruesome Twosome brothers in his personal Creepe Coupe ) it looks as though we are both turning up next Friday ( 6th Nov ) but im not sure what ill be running ( so ill be Professor Pat Pending in the Converta-Car ), and i think Balders ( Peter Perfect in his Turbo Terrific ) could be running one of his new Schumies...

So what does that leave Craig running as ? The Red Max in the Crimson Haybailer or Dick Darstardly in his Mean Machine ?? :lol:

Unfortunately I think the poor old plastic on Balders TRX1 have become far to brittle to be raceworthy, so I'm going to retire back into Balders collection :(
