talywain track

[weeman]

Dropped in at Talywain today and can confirm that the guys up there have done a sweet job of repairing and relaying the track. It looks pretty much the same as last year but all the whoops,doubles etc are now level and smooth. As for that unpredictable huge double at the far side of the track, well both approach ramp and landing ramp are now level and smooth(Owen cleared it every time with his sc10!!) Oh and for those who didnt like the bumpy straight..I can confirm its is now smoother than a smooth thing!
Well done to all the talywain guys

boooo the straight was ACE my Tamiya never had a problem.... lol

[weeman]

I loved the old straight.. kept the blood pumping! Super fast now though

[axeman]

Yes we have made the track as easy as possible for you!!!, no nasty bumps or lips in the carpet, we have also profiled the jumps evenly for you!!!!
I know you 1/10th drivers struggle with the skill to find the fast line on a rallyX track.
Maybe next year you will try out big boy racing 1/8th!!!!

[weeman]

Whats all this we business?..you were lying down all day, the only time you sat up was to slurp the gravey off that plate!!

[steelie600]

So youve made the track like a pool table for the 10ths?? Its gonna be ace when us truggy boys turn up!!!!

[axeman]

For the truggy nationals there will be an extra 3 lanes going onto the track of pure dirt/grass and some big air jumps!!!!!
All the stuff 1/10 drivers don't like!!!!

[steelie600]

Oh you mean all the stuff that breaks the little fragile "TOYS"

Maybe we should compare the lap times of the little toys agiinst the "big" toys!

[steelie600]

im up for that!!!

[GRIFF55]

me too, one thing is tho. The 8th 's actually have to go round the track and not just drive over those track markers like usual hahaha

[steelie600]

ive mainly race truggy and we dont see track markers as boundaries, merely guide lines!!!

[GRIFF55]

hahaha, i know. I like to watch truggy racing and see what new lines can be used when driving over the track

[steelie600]

And to see how adventurous you can get in the air!! LOL

i dont mean to sound funny here but i dont get it the moneys that come from the little toy car event not needed? im sure another track would quite happily put on the event and not put down the class that the funds are coming from

[weeman]

Me and griff will make him pay for that
