Default Tamworth
Just sent an online entry in for Tamworth along with John Price - but I read the rules and apart from not having sent off for my 2010 brca licence yet, I've also lost my wallet a couple of weeks with my 2009 licence in there
Will I have to sack this race off? I don't think my new licence will come in time and like I said, I don't have my old (existing) one.

Any ideas? These micro lads don't mess about - I don't wanna get on the wrong side of em

Jimmy,

Sent this to John in a reply to his PM..

As Section Chairman you can bring your BRCA licence forms and cheques and give them to me on the day. Ill get them sent off on Monday but you are covered from the time you give all the paperwork to me

Hope that helps?

Woop!! Wouldn't it be ace if X-ray could make some specs

I once got hypnotised into believing I was wearing X-ray specs, except mine were broke and the bloke sat next to me wouldn't swap... gutted

Default M18T Pro
Jimmy,

Just bought a M18T pro off fleabay, so it's good to hear you've still using the review car. I just bought it for a bit of fun, since there isn't really a micro "scene" up North. However if you have some setups/tips then I'd be very interested. Any changes from the last entry in the review?

A mini Tamworth report would be excellent

Merry Christmas

Mines running the jconcepts rc18 buggy shell now which fits pretty well. I've also just made a wing for it (the jconcepts mini wing was a little small) - the wing makes a big difference (from having no wing I mean).
I've got some Losi shocks on it to try out - but not driven them yet so no idea if they're any better or not yet.

Not many setup changes you can do on the m18t pro but the wing was the best change I did to stabilise the car.

John/Jimmy,

You need to bring a table and chairs to the venue as TRRAC are unable to supply any.

Id get there for 8am, and remember your licence forms and cheques if you still dont have your cards

Is there a model shop in attendance and do they sell lipo's? My cells haven't really been run for a couple of years and are a bit badgered - would be good to run lipo tomorrow if I can get my hands on one.

Default lipos
Not seen Wim have any lipos on the day, but that doesn't mean he wont' have any. Best thing to do is give him a bell asap so he can put some to one side for you, as he's got a but of a long drive upto Tamworth.

Come see me if you want to borrow a couple and you use Deans, I have a few lipo's spare that won't be used tomorrow if you need any. They should hopefully fit in a M18.

Sorted chief! that would be most excellent if I can (and they fit) - my buggy is a bit slow even in the kitchen.
I hope it goes alright tomorrow as I've not raced it for aggggggges - last time it got first in the B, I think tomorrow I'll be lucky to scrape into the bottom final
