Possible New 1/16 indoor off-road club

[Dufty07]

Hi, Just testing to see if anyone would be interested in a 1/16 indoor off-road club in the Swaffham/Dereham area. Ive got the nod, but before I went any further with it I wanted to know if it was worth bothering.:thumbsup:

If it's 1/16th scale you are talking about then you might want to get yourself over to the ukmicrorc (http://www.uk-microrc.co.uk/forum) forum as it is dedicated to everything small scale.

Also, the 1/16 scale cars are not all that popular and you will find a much wider 1/18th scale audience. Saying that the scale really means nothing as the cars are all various sizes (just nonsense marketing blurp) and we prefer to run as 'micro's' and allow as many different types of cars (within reason) to get better participation. :)

The micro cars actually take a beating better than larger cars, no weight on the materials, check out some of the WORM videos, can probably find them on here, or google, or PM c0sie, and you'll see you can actually go pretty insane on the features :thumbsup: Also wild tracks do tend to attract more drivers, because it's more fun:)
