Does this mean you won't be at the F1 race on Sunday, 11/12? Or will it just be a weekend full of R/C for you?

ShaunMac

After the lack of support shown at the Bowl for the Fall Series last week, I don't plan on driving for 3 hours again NOT to race. I think it's just that time of year when outdoor racing slows down/stops.

Looks like it's Mini-Z season for me! I miss racing these little cars. Pick one up and race with us Mike. It's like mini 1/12 racing!

mike henderson

Sorry Shaun i can't justify the purchase of another rc car.
I'll just wait for the carpet track to open untill people want to race outdoors again.

What kind of car is that in the photo Shaun? That is a 1/12 scale, right? Not a mini Z? I got two I-wavers last year at Christmas but they are definetly not race worthy. They have minds of their own and wander around aimlessly. I've also got an old Mini Z from the first year they were out. It's better than the I-wavers but still hard to drive in a straight line. Are the new Mini Z's better? What about the F1 Mini Z's?

That's Shaun's highly modified I-Waver. Very fast.

You were there? I thought Chad was the only electric guy that came out. You must have missed each other.

ShaunMac

That's an Atomic VDS body that's made for the Mini-Z. The new Mini-Z's are better than the old ones. The MR-02 is the car to get. I haven't tried the MA-010 "4wd" or the F1 mini-z's yet. I've read good things about both of them.

Mike O - I was at the track at 9:00. I stayed there till after 12:00. Me and Jeff John were the only Electric Touring cars there. Chad got there after I left, just before racing would have started. I'm not even sure that they raced on Sunday. Weren't many people there at all.

Here's a picture of the current RCP Track layout. If you have a 1/28th scale car come on down and race. Should be fun!

jeff john

I'll be there with my X-MOD. Hopefully its a race worthy car.

ShaunMac

Great! See you there Jeff. We plan to run stock motors so racing will be close. Sorta like Mini Coopers.

Come on Shaun, come race F1's with us. >8)

ShaunMac

The next "and final" F1 race for me will be in Calhoun at the challenge race. Until then it's Mini-Z racing time. We should have around 10 people racing 1/28th on Saturday. Some drivers couldn't make it this Saturday but plan to make the next event.

Have fun at the Bowl.

jeff john

where and when are F1s running?
I'm building an F1 from an old pan-car .
Does anyone know if there is an adapter to fit tc wheels to pan-car?

The F1 race is at the bowl this Sunday. I plan to also bring my Mini and I believe a few others are as well.
