f104w on tamiya track
Hi All,
I just got a f104w. What are the recommended upgrades to get it planted on the Aliso Viejo Tamiya track?
I care only about performance, not bling.
TIA,
Ron

UK Indoor F1 series for both foam and rubber spec cars
This will be a great series in the UK
2 Classes for the F1's at Ardents Word Pan Series Events
Ardent will be the first UK club to run what we hope will become the two main classes for RC F1 racing throughout the UK, come and BE THE FIRST. We will be encouraging you to paint your cars to replicate full size F1 teams. The F1 racing is meant to be fun and without writing lots of rules, we are looking for people to enter this event in the spirit it is in intended so no touring car wheels or pan car type kits.
We will be running an “F1 Master class” workshop at Ardent raceway (date TBC) to help all, both new and old to get their cars ready for the big event!
F1 Retro (aka Foam Class):
F1 Retro is based on the late 70’s and 80’s wide formula one cars with large very sticky tyres, we have replicated this in this class by allowing the unlimited choice of Foam tyres on the 205mm wide cars, Such as the Tamiya F103 or the very popular 3 Racing F109
• 21.5 turn brushless motor (open timing) or G2 brushed
• 2s Lipo or 6 cell NiMHs allowed
• 205mm Maximum Width
• Any commercially available F1 intended foam tyre
• NO PAN CAR TYPE CHASSIS ALLOWED
F1 Modern (aka Rubber Class):
F1 modern is based on the new generation of narrow F1 cars with very restrictive rules, we have replicated this class by setting a restrictive width chassis and rubber tyre, To take part in this class you would need something like a Tamiya F104 or HPI F10 to mention a couple
• 21.5 turn brushless motor (open timing) or G2 brushed
• 2s Lipo or 6 cell NiMHs allowed
• 185mm Maximum Width

Wut up Joe. Nice! had no idea you were looking into Tamiya F1 then again makes sense given your success with Mini-Z F1's They drive extremely similar (like a ruler)you'll see. UF1 series is for sure one of the most fun series-es out there in RC land.
Speaking of F1's I'll have my Mini-Z F1 this Saturday @ Kenon...brings your if your goin I wanna try a few things to get it ready for October PN Nationals.
