A great day’s racing at Bayside today 8/8/10

Of the 12 that lined up for 540 today there were 8 drivers using the SP CIRTIX club race 21.5 combo which we are testing for possible inclusion in 540, 1 using a Tekin set at zero and an open 21.5 motor and 3 using brushed 540 motors.

To carry the stats a little further there were 7 Schumacher, 3 Xray, 1 Tamiya and 1 Corally.

In qualifying the TQ was anyones but the grinner at the end was Tony Lewis with a Cirtix and a Schumacher who did a 17/6m4.93 to take TQ by about 3 seconds there was about 11 seconds between the top 6, and all of the best laps were within about half a second of each other.

The finals were just fantasticly close races with absolutely Continue Reading »That’s not testing – That’s RACING

It’s been a very quiet build up to the EP Offroad Nats this weekend but they are very much underway now.

All I have is the following results

2wd Mod
1 Scotty Kirchener
2
3 Cheesy

Stock
1. Logan Symes
2. David Lawrance
3. Alan Stonz

I also know that Gavin Thompson won the B final in stock 2wd.

4wd is on today – I hope to be able to get some results at some stage

Finally had advice from Schumacher that the Mi4 Lp is available again – I have some on order so they will be here next week.

It’s long been said by us that it was the Hotshot that started it all for us, but no it wasn’t really. before we bought the first Hotshot we went out and drove a nephews car – the Holiday Buggy.

Tamiya must have known I wanted one because they have announced a rerelease of it – wow it is going to find a spot on my wall with the Datsun 1600, the Hotshot and the other bits of nostalga that hang out in my study.

Just in stock some RW Spurs in 74t 48p especially for those wanting to get gear ratios for stock and spec classes. $12

Also I am a bit overstocked on Cougar and CAT parts so will be having a clearance 20% off while stocks last or till end of August. Will put teh list up soon.

A fairly quiet weekend at last

Brendale Friday night

Bayside Sunday – see you there – 540 will be the big class

The 2010 Tamworth Cup will be run on 21st and 22nd August – just three weeks away.

This event also doubles as the Qld v/S NSW sheild event and we need more Queenslanders to attend. Competition will be over the traditional EP classes Modified, Super Stock, Stock and 540 (Handout) so get your entry in and make some plans.

Some of us are staying at the Colonial Motor Inn.

In the Touring Car Classes over the weekend the Young Guns or should that be the Heir Apparents rose to their rightful places on the podium

Chase Gregory TQ and First in 540 and then an A final spot in stock.

Chris Sturdy TQ and first in Super Stock and again in Stock.

Corey Broadstock second in Super Stock and then the big one – TQ and First in Modified.

In each case we also salute the teams, the fathers, without whose help none of these results would have been achieved. Great work Dads and great driving by all three of the boys. In all of those wins there was daylight between them and the rest of the field, truly superb performances.

This week we see the Annual NRT Titles for EP over the weekend at the Gold Coast track.

Wednesday 28th Mid Week at Meakin F1 and TC

Saturday / Sunday – see above re NRT

Saturday night – Logan GP and EP TC and f1

Sunday – Sunny Coast EP and GP TC.

For me it will be Wednesday night and Sunday. Saturday day and night is full of social ocassions.

Regular racers are probably aware that we have been doing some testing to try to find a suitable brushless combo that can be run in 540. The primary purpose of teh tests is to find a motor that is no faster than the 540 and preferably that can run along side the current 540 motor – at least for an interim period.

Some test have been done with open 21.5 motors (like the SP V3 for example) and they have proved to be Continue Reading »Calling all 540 drivers
