Introduction and History of TRCMCC

[Paul Field]

The club races in a small village called Tipton St John about 3 miles from Ottery St Mary.
We started the club in 2003. It was basically started because my brother Mark and our Father wanted to race again after a couple of years away from racing and to keep our hand in. Mark and I had started racing in 1987 running 1/10 off road. We changed to race on the National circuit in the early 90's running first with Pro Tens and then 1/10 IC.

When we first started the club we ran Tamiya Mini's to keep it cheap and ran these for many years. Then 3 years ago we got the familiar feeling to go racing again a B4 followed and the rest is history.
The club then switched to run 1/10 Off Road. We are very friendly bunch and race for fun. We sometimes race vintage cars, re-released Tamiya Frogs are the favourite but there is now a Wild One on the scene so i can see this class growing.
Our next meeting is on Wednesday 27th February we start at 7pm.
The surface is carpet and slippery wooden floor. Schumacher yellow minispikes are the tyre of choice.
Our website is www.trcmcc.co.uk this needs updating but it does have a map

We race every 2 weeks our next few dates are:

27 Feb
13 March
27 March
10 April
24 April

Happy racing

Paul

Feel bad starting this on a negative note, but unfortuately I'm not going to be able to make it. Not sure if you planned a vintage race tonight, but there will be no wild one making an appearance

Sorry about that, will try and make it along next time

Just wondering if there were any plans for any vintage racing this coming wednesday?
