Any chance of running an 1/18th scale class (e.g. RC18t, Mini T) in the future if you can muster up the numbers. It's huge in the states and i think it will really take off here too if clubs started to facilitate it.

No chance of running 1/8th due to track to small for those cars and also they rip the track till there is nothing left. The 1/18th cars are always invited to race.

Do you still race onroad?

we are in discussion of racing at a new circuit somewhere in Warriewood. We are in the midst of buying a drivers stand and settling everything straight with the council. When it gets up and running we will be running gas and electric. I will inform you when i hear more.

Due to the damage caused by 1/8th nitro cars, council stopped all nitro cars from using track, except on club days.

Nobody is disputing that it is "OFF ROAD."
Just stating that it is 1/10th off road.

Know how you feel, it affects St Ives club members in the same way. The 1/8th NITRO drivers caused this...that is why ALL NITRO R/C vehicles are banned except on club days.

off road tracks are challenging because of elevation changes, jumps, berms, dirt, etc not giant craters which destroy cars. 1/8th destroys tracks for electric.

Oh so true, if only everybody could see ith that way.(meaning 1/8th drivers).
