We've ordered, from our major sponsor for the event Walter RC, 30 sets of REX34's, practice tyres we will be using at the Title event. The tyres should be here for our next scheduled Saturday night. The cost will be $35 per set for the practice sets. The full compliment of Ride race tyres will be here for the event at a later date.

Cheers Brendan

Yes, the bulk of large events worldwide use a control tyre in electric racing, I believe the REX34 is actually the same control tyre being used in the ETS this year (European Touring Car Series).

Typically on the first day of the event, you pick up your tyres (how ever may your ordered when entering), to glue or check them etc (maybe buff down the seam/join), they then get marked and put away till you need them, during the event you have them during the day, and hand them in overnight, this stops tampering etc.

Boody hell $35 a set and people think foam tyres are expensive... No wait getting old and stupid, Proline caps were $50 a pair in the Workers Club day and you were good for a clubby and maybe a practice

Hello guys I use too race years ago with brushed motors so its very different for me so I wanted to ask in 21.5t what are we looking for a rollout and is the Fantam IONv.4 going to be legal and competitive with a Tekin Gen2 speedy?

or is there a better combo I should look at getting ATM I have a hobbywing Justock 45 amp ESC and a hobbywing 21.5T with no timing option.

If the battery,ESC or Motor aren't on The approved lists found here
http://www.orrcaqld.org.au/rules-for...-road-section/ then dont use it. Thunder power and a few different speedies seem to be the flaovour and present. As for your rollout for the combo you want to use come down and get some practice laps and you'll see for yourself. Track is usually open early on Race days.

Cheers

Just need to be in line when they are bought out. Like an earlier post says we hope to have them by next race meet.

So you wont have a problem they will already be glued.

Thanks Brendon it seems due to using no timing on the ESC theres not much point changing my ESC for this event "Zero timing locked SPEC mode- LED’s 3, 4, and 5 flash for ROAR events. Unlocked zero timing is LED’s 3, and 5 flashing"

The hobbywing combo is defiantly on the lists and I think you are running intelect packs so they should be on the lists, the Teken RS is on the lists, the Fantom motor should also be on there, arnt they the Trinity D3 rebadged?

Says Roar Approved.

The Justock esc is perfectly good for 21.5 no need to change it. Get yourself a quality motor (thunder power, fantom, reedy or speed passion ) and you'll be good to go. Teemed with a couple of ROAR Approved lipo of course.

Yes you can... you have 2 easy options and 1 tricky

1 buy a Y connector this has one connection to the receiver and 2 connection to fans
http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...servo-steering

2 just solder the pair of wires together

3 if you want to you can pull the pins out of the connection and carefully solder the 2 fans together
