There has been a bit of interest in running a vintage class indoors. I know a few of us have dinosaurs somewhere in our RC stuff, so if people are up for it I think we should give it a go. We'd need a few to commit to it to make enough for a heat.

Well you'll need a car for a start.
4wd is pretty much dead, 2wd is where its at.
Durango 210's and Losi 22's are the popular choices - there are some C4.1's but if you haven't already got a B4.1 its an expensive option.

Probably best you don't get a Durango or I'll have to look after that like I did your Bmax.......

I don't really have any rules in mind, so I guess anything 'not modern' qualifies.

Last year there was a good amount of tables.
But not sure if they will be there again.

Better bring your own table for the first week.

May i suggest that in the track layout we include alot of slippy floor following on from when we ran indoors last year. not only does it save lugging out all the carpet, but it makes the track more difficult and really tests the throttle control.
