I agree with Robs comments, best track layout ive raced on there so far, I personally think the track drives better in that direction

Yep cheers guys, thanks for the warm welcome and great organisation and especially to the marshals that put my lads SCT back on track countless times.

I've just diagnosed my weird occasional lack of steering as being a duff (and hot) servo so happy days stuff to fix and fettle which is all part of the fun.

Can't wait until the next one but can't make the 19th

Yeah my arms are on fire. First "hot" day of the summer and I get burnt lol

Gutted I can't make the next few events due to 5th scale event and holidays as the Losi was going around well

Will have to pop down for a practice during the week

Are there any Thursday events defo planned?

Well....WHAT A DAY!!!!

When we started planning the idea for WORM.....that was pretty much what I personally had been dreaming of!

Awesome weather
Loads of racers and friends
Close and curtious wheel to wheel dicing all day in our heats and final
Banter smiles and fun
My car...totally freaking awesomely planted all day...so so drive able!!!!
Track...totally loved the layout, open flowing, real racing track!!!

I literally cannot think of another days racing I've enjoyed as much ever!

Oh and I am pretty sunburnt too lol

Thanks everyone for making WORM awesome

Vid of 2wd B final coming soon!

Top days racing and feeling the burn Will have to get on the magic tyres for next round as I wasn't too competitive with the buggies yesterday! Love my new short course truck even though the front had NO damping, great to have a heat of 9 of us! The fact that Rob our trackside shop can also get the Team Durango DESC210 RTR's for £155 is great too if anyones after one

The 10 minute gap between rounds seemed to work well too even when running two classes. I think 5 rounds of qualifying may of been a bit much though as we ended up finishing up a little later? Something to keep an eye on for next time but we sure did get a lot of racing in

Never moan about too much racing but yes 5 heats did mean a late finish but it was bank holiday Monday so it was all good and you will have to let me about magic tyres as I need some
