Default How many RC threads!!! PMSL

Sorry guys just had to post another, i dont think we have enough

Seems that most of the RC'ers have off road trucks, buggies etc.

Anyone else run touring cars and fancies making up a circuit at our next carpark meet??

Anyone have any cones etc???

C'mon Phil, you gotta get something soon

If you dont mind loaning them to us Mark.. it would be nice to get a little sprint circuit up together.

Learning to drive around a track can be quite tricky for those that have never done it before and teaches you alot about the cars control and suspension setup.

Anyone can drive around the streets and turn whenever they want to turn the car. Turning the car when you have to is a little different.

Should be a good laugh,


Any other touring cars?

So far its just me

if i'm honest, mine has always been 3wd. i lost a grub screw that holds the drive shaft in, the first time i run it. then i lost the drive shaft. never got round to replacing them. tends to drift to one side.

You'll be fine mate,

We'll have you whiping that round cones in no time. Ive some spare race slicks and ex race bodies if you dont wanna run the scooby shell too.

If you can drive well round a track you can drive anything anywhere under almost any conditions.

Cool,

1) Frayz- RS4 N2 1/10th Touring car
2) Fozzie - Cen 1/10th rally car
3) Daz - 1/10th RC drift car
4) Tiny - 1/10th kyosho rally car
5)


This will probably be a meet @ the park in baz-vegas and then on to a local multistorey rooftop.

Guys on 27mHz.. be sure to bring some spare Rx/Tx to ensure we all get to run together.

TBC tomorrow if not tonight.
