Mini or 12th class variation for September

[Dave Dodd]

Yes i know this is early and we haven't started outside yet but gives us mere mortals chance to save up. :D

As our mini rules allow mardave and the hpi switch, we should consider the acception of the new supastox from schumacher.

also we may consider adopting the brca gt12 rules as per here:

another suggestion is that the bodyshell represents a real production vehicle and are either Mardave, Kamtec or Schumacher

what electrics will fit in the shumy thing?

[chris brown]

Think it takes normal size electrics.
Looks good but will probably thrash those with tamiya m chassis.

[Chrisfoster1971]

Ah bugger just for an M06, are we gonna have some stock rules and modified rules to give normal newbies a chance?

[Dave Dodd]

The 1S chassis takes the same electrics as a pancar.

The 2S chassis takes saddle's, so normal electrics will fit, would just need a slower motor like a 21.5t or 17.5t.

i think gt12 rules are 1s 13.5t, so equivalent 2s is approx 21.5t, we could adopt similar rules but allow 1s 10.5t and 2s 17.5t.

they should be on similar pace as the m06's but we'll see.. i will check some lap times :lol:

:thumbsup::thumbsup:

[Robbiejuk]

Has it got a diff? Personally I think they will wipe the floor with the minis.

Bargain price though :thumbsup:

[Aran]

id like a superstox but i definitely think there should be a motor limit.

maybe the club could get some stock of the limit motor for a good price.

No diff in the kit but Dan G & Dan C dont use diffs

Gt12 rules are 13.5t 1s (27t 4 cell) or a mix of and 21.5t 2s.

Blinky :) (zero timing)

[Robbiejuk]

Dave they blink when the timing is off.

Edited lol :rolleyes:. cheers Rob :lol:

[chris brown]

Dave, do all the kits come with 50p in?
Is that shop stock or shoud I say shop stox, or is it yours. Need someone to build it? I'm your man.

[jimmy noke]

What price are we looking at and is it a just add electrics and your off.

haha the 50p was just to give some scale :lol:
might take you up on the build :D
its stock or mine depends which comes 1st, a customers or winter season :lol:

What price are we looking at and is it a just add electrics and your off.

they are £94.99 (rrp £99.95)

there is the 1s or 4cell (4 nicads/nimhs) kit or the 2s saddle pack kit :)
from what i can gather std electrics will fit maybe a small servo or low profile servo and the use of a rx pack in the 1s chassis just to help the electrics.

You know what I am not surprised by this comment....:D

Mardave & Schumacher.

we will be following the gt12 rules as close as possible, so the following electrics are allowed:

1s brushless 3.7v, 13.5 motor & blinky esc no boost timing
2s brushless 7.4v, 21.5 motor & blinky esc no boost timing
4cell nimhs 4.8v, G2 motor & any brushed esc

wheels:
any wheels that fit without any modifications are allowed
max dia 60mm

bodyshells:
any that fit sensibly without too much over hang.

upgrades:
only spares and upgrades from the same brand is allowed (schumacher for schumacher upgrades and vice versa)

nb: non adjustable brushless esc's that have fixed timing are allowed and bl motors that have adjustable end bells should have them set to 0 degrees.

a full summarised rules sheet will be posted asap. :D

having watched some gt12 racing today with ColinO, it looks really good with some close racing :thumbsup: (track length 30mtr approx, spur 70t 48dp)
also diff's were being used. (mardave in a supastox, tut tut) although a std supastox was not that far behind. (it was a Mardave leading the class when we left)

:)

7241 - PEUGEOT 106 MAXI BODY (190mm/WB 237mm/CLEAR)

supastox 165mm wide, 195-210mm wheelbase

[wes j.]

I wouldn't know what shell to go for, I've always liked the hot hatch look but loving some of the gt shells.

[Garry]

I've got one, planning on sorting rubber tyres so I can run it at Newark. I'm waiting on some electrics to turn up right now before I can test it but mines fitted with a Fiesta Mk6. Hot Hatches are more awesome than snooze GT cars.... :thumbsup:
