hi alex, the associated b4 and b44, losi 22, and schumacher cats are probably the most common cars at caldicot, with paul knight (trackside spares) able to supply spares for them on club nights. a few run kyosho cars as well.
best to come along on a friday night and have a look.cheers.

Paul does not sell any Schumacher parts except tyres.
B4 B4.1 for 2WD, B44 B44.1 for 4WD Both cars kick ass at Caldicot, as they do anywhere ! Paul keeps all the parts you will ever need for the above cars. They can also be bought from Ebay at good second hand prices. If you want to get something else new that Paul keeps parts for, the Losi 22 is a good 'other' 2WD. 4WD, still got to be an Associated !!

If your after cars that you can get easy set ups & parts for at local clubs, the B4 & B44 ( and the .1's ) are the most common by far, followed by the Schumachers. Which is handy as all the Schumie drivers in particular have loads of spares for when their cars break
 After that are the Losi 22's ( lots of those ) then Tamiyas & X6's. Im pretty sure im the only person running a Kyosho RB5 in the whole South Wales WRCA, and im not sure anyone else has a ZX5 either now, as i tend to run my TRF501x in 4wd ( which is by far the best 4wd...  ). If you do run a Kyosho, im about the only local person who might have spares on hand. Unless i forget them, which i tend to do regulary...

You're more than welcome to come and take a look, plenty of friendly advise and everyone's happy to chat (I'm normally near the computer and encouraging people to marshall!)
Pretty much everyone is on lipos and brushless these days, it just makes for much easier racing.
