I really hope it gets some people involved into a competitive and affordable form of racing...personally I've found out running my FG is a bit of a drain on the wallet as everyone wants to keep up with the jones so to speak... I can see it getting to the stage where my FG will take over dollar value of my dailey drive!!!
so I am really looking forward to seeing this class take a foot hold and get people involved in good fun.....
so..LETS RACE!!!

Hey charlie I am not bagging the cars I know what they are like I have looked at one enough to know the quality and weak points in the car and we both know how fast they are compared to the other brands on the track, and yes I agree in numbers the racing will be fun.
Just because I have said in the past that they are not what I would like to see as a start class doesn't mean I would never race one
If I am willing to give away my old tyres then I am sure you would agree that I am interested as much as you are to get guys into the sport. If that means getting a car myself to boost the numbers then I will try and help.
Corey good job with the video
Why don't we get as many XRC's as possible on the next 1/5th scale day 28th Jan that way the new guys can have a run and have plent of 1/5th guys to help sort out their cars before their 1st offical race day in Feb.
Cheers

good on you
Rolf we are seeing the same attitude as yours over here in SA which is fantastic.Just because people dont like them doesnt mean they have to bag them and to go as far in saying that you would get one to purely boost numbers is good to hear. I can see from here that sydney is already regenerating interest in large scale and it wont be to long before numbers are doubled at a meeting.
Charlie your doing an awesome job your efforts will be rewarded with competitors to compete against very soon

Yeah I have tyres as well, cheap as.... FREE but I will not be at the track until the Next 1/5th scale day.
Look for Purple and Orange Alfa 156 HARM and I will have a stack of tyres.
