haha nah, the shock is still there... just a broken arm in the final minutes of the race
so that team did their last 2-3 laps on 3 legs just to finish the race
Not bad for a 25yo RC10 "gold tub" after 4 hours racing!!
i only landed there at about the 3hr mark for a while looked like heaps of fun
it was the first time i've eva seen the track
they tell me that nitros arn't aloud
but my boy loved it he had a ball watchin some of the old school action
dont spose ya got some footage from the camera car???
there was some cool stacks i'd like to see first hand
yea any electric car is welcome but no IC/GPs due to council restrictions
(track is too tight & narrow for 1/8s anyway, let alone monsters)
Knox club racemeets are 1st & 3rd Sundays every month;
on the others there may be either members doing working bees
or running special racing events like the Vintage Enduro.
i spied some good cars from yesteryear there.
Losi JRX2 (had 1)
original RC10 or 2nd gen (can't be sure from the pics)
Kyosho Optima mid.
Schumcher Cougar 2000? (had 1 as well)
yeah the machinery was pretty impressive everything pre-1992, but some more than others
the RC10 was a true goldtub with 6-gear tranny i think - none of the later Stealth rubbish
the Solas' red JRX2... is as it was raced in the S.A. Titles in 1990 with pro-se front arms, shocks & shock towers
Winners Darryn (JRX Pro) and Jason (Cougar of some mixed breed)
Most amazing for me was seeing that yellow Kyosho Scorpion running around!!
This thing is early 1980s - that's like seeing a Model-T Ford dicing it in V8 Supercars.
Yet it handled and kept up with the pack, no failures apart from motor burnout.
