Default WBMCC Indoor Offroad Winter Series

So this years dates for the Offroad series are;

October 17

November 21

December 12

January 16

February 13

March 13

These are now on SUNDAYS, not Saturday like previous years

Classes being run are 2wd and 4wd 1/10th buggies and 1/10th Short Course trucks (will be split to 2 and 4wd if enough entries)

Control tyres are minipins on the rears of the buggies and open tyres for the trucks (as long as they are 1/10th scale SC tyres, 3.0"x2.2")

We will be running on an extended track which will nearly fill the hall to give us the largest indoor track in the country!

Race fees will be £10 for all drivers with £5 refund for any driver who packs away on Sunday (race director's discretion will be applied)

Pre-booking can be done here http://www.rcracecontrol.com/?action=showseries&id=35

I think tyres are minipins on the rears of the buggies and open for the trucks, but will be confirmed by Rob asap.

Hang on with you going to university are you not going out and buying a whole new car for 6 races?

The SCT's ran last year with a 10.5 / 19 turn motor limit and they were fairly lairy with those in. Good luck with getting across the lino with anything hotter in them.

We have opened up the tyre rules this year though so hopefully they will be a bit easier to handle with the new breed of SCT tyres.

Can you edit the date at the top please ant as Doddy has done in his post? Just to save any confusement.

I'm gonna take the truck to uni with me, with a bigger track and better tyres 10.5 will be too tame, a lot of people are saying 7.5 or 8.5 is about right. If its open motors then I can still use my 6.5 but toned down

1. What is "confusement"?
2. Ant -if you build your truck it'll be lairy whatever motor you run because you'll probably put it together with toe-out at the rear.
