[David Church]

I won't be there:cry: This event clashes with the EPR winter series:cry::cry::cry: and I so wanted to be on tv!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PTRU]

Never mind you can come to the later ones that do not clash Dave.

And you never know tv might be at those also.

[PTRU]

Just a quick up date
Please put your entries in as this will be a show case for our sport.
We may even have an out side sponcer new to the sport.
There will be papers covering the event plus we are trying to get local TV coverage (on news ect)


RC Racing, the premiere Radio Control Motorsport Show, returns for it’s 4th series at the beginning of December on Motors TV across Europe, and on the World Wide Web around the world! (www.rvracing.tv (http://www.rvracing.tv/))
Produced in association with HPI Europe, Nick, John and Mat will be covering more events and more classes than ever before!


We have action from –

The 1/8th Track World Championships from Switzerland.
The 1/5th Track European Championships from the UK.
The Baja 24hour Endurance event at the famous Nurburgring in Germany.
The Proline “King of the Dirt” Event for 1/10th off road from Bicester
The DHI Cup for 1/10th Touring Cars from Denmark
The Snowbirds Nationals 1/10th /1/12th and Oval from Florida – USA
The 1/12th European Championships for Stock and Mod from Hinckley

Plus a couple of still secret TBA events!

We are particularly pleased to be returning to Denmark for the DHI cup in January for some top line indoor touring car action and for the fabulous hospitality of our Danish hosts!

After 2 years in Las Vegas Covering the IIC, we are all very excited to be visiting the other legendary US indoor meeting: - The Snowbirds Nationals from Orlando Florida. Not only do we have 12th and 10th action but also our chance to see the crazy world of US Oval racing and with a bit of luck a couple of NASCAR stars too!

At last; this season, we cover 1/10th off – road! It had been our intention to show the World championships from South Africa, but the problems there have made that impossible, so instead we are visiting the Proline Indoor Arena for their “King of the Dirt” event, not only showing the 2wd and 4wd finals, and after a gap of 21 years, Nick will be having a go himself! Thanks to support from Schumacher Racing, two decades after putting his CAT away, Nicks got a new …. err…. CAT (SX) to play with! So will this attempt to be a racing star be as big a disaster as the 1/8th Truggies or as big a success as the 1/12th pan car? – Tune in in January to find out!

In addition to this outstanding race action, RC racing will feature all the best news views and interviews from around the sport providing for a 4th year the monthly fix of RC action, you can’t do without!

All episodes of RC Racing are available anytime on the web at – www.rcracing.tv (http://www.rcracing.tv/)

RC Racing is an Online Media Production in association with HPI Europe.

[JCJC]

[KRob]

Okay then Boys, some questions for you as I think I really need to show up some time and give it a go.

When is the next Sunday meeting?
Which Prolines do you use?
How long do the tyres last on that surface?

Cheers :)

[GRIFF55]

I had holeshots on kieth and they showed no wear at all!!:thumbsup:
Great fun, get up there!!

[Brooks]

Just a quick question, so what are you Guys running, motor Turn? As they say 8.5 or 10.5. I know the Track not very big. I have a 6.5 X12 in the Cat Sx at the moment, dont want to cook it the first time i go there :cry:.

I rolled with 3 meeting old holshots on my ride :thumbsup:

[PTRU]

Tony had one tyre 5 meetings old and the other was a cast off from RB for first round as somebody had borrowed a wheel and tyre from us on Saturday for practice and did not return it. 2nd in round.
new tyres after that but no quicker until last round.
Hole shot rear ribs front. Ribs we are still on the set we started with in May you can work that one out how long they last.

Motor 6.5 in 4wd will be ok 7,5 might be better.
2wd 8.5 to 10.5 is good

we run FTD as the track stays constant if not getting better each run.

next round winter series 6th December.

It is the last one that is on the same day as EPR.

we run every Wednesday, Doors open around 5pm racing starts around 7pm and finishes around 10:30 people finally leave about 11pm to 11:30pm.

Cheep racing at Pro-line dirt arena
