No we dont have a website. I cant send you pics of the track that we will be using as the track changes regularly, the track used for this event will be virgin, so no home track advantage. Rest assured tho that the track will be fast and flowing with a few technical jumps involved.

The average track lengths range from 165m to aprox 220m.
The circuit is fully enclosed within 600mm high walls in a large oval shape.

I have attached 1 pic of the track we are using now!!!!!

Maybe you should post this @ www.nitrobuggies.com. However I not to sure that racing for money is a good thing After all this is a hobby & just emagine all the naughty little things people would do to get an advantage

Hi Lineburner
I guess some people think of it as a hobby, and thats fine but myself and Im sure a lot of others consider R/c racing to be a Motorsport, and whats wrong with putting up a prize such as money for the racer who puts in the best effort on the day, you say imagine all the naughty things people will do, mate thats what rules and regs are for, like any other sport, if you get it wrong some official is going to give you a hard time.
All I can say in closing is that, the invitation is there for you or anyone else who is interested in competing at an event where the organiser thinks enough of the sport to want to take it to the next level.

Don't forget even tho I had some negative points in your opion I did give you the web address for the biggest 1/8 off-road site in the country. If you would like the Australian 1/8 off-road community to know about this event then I would suggest it is in your best interest to let them know. By the way GOOD LUCK I hope you do well.

Default Getting close now

The $1000.00 Top End Nitro Challenge is getting closer and closer, we are starting to get some confirmations from southern drivers now. Yeehaa should be great fun.

As a matter of interest I just booked a flight Darwin / Brisbane return $380.00

This is a sprint race event, no qualifying, everybody races, no long final, mass grid starts,
