Associated, Tamiya, Kyosho and Schumacher are representing

We have the 9th team sorted, more details to follow, but we've been able to pair up Scott and Terence with Shane and Dan so they're working on car line up etc but once again, 9 teams for the enduro, some seriously strong teams in there, just over 2 weeks to go!!

Hey guys

Another update

Can team captains start sending me transponder numbers of your drivers please. it's easiest if you do that via pm on here, so i can keep them all in one place

On the morning of the race we'll be putting up the "Musgrove Flyover" to turn the big double into a table top as we did at the festival, the track will be closed while that takes place

I've had a re-think about the pit location for car changes, we'll leave it as has been done in previous years, so cars will pull into the pit lane in front of the drivers stand and cars will be released to the left of the drivers stand. We'll have some tables setup and lines marked preventing people from walking in front of race control, everyone must walk behind the race control container to get to and from the car park

Cam has offered to help broadcast the race via periscope, we'll post the link up on this thread so if your mates want to see whats happening and keep up with the action, they should be able to and they might be able to hear the computer calling the race positions and gaps.

I'm also planning on having a second screen setup on the pit table so everyone will be able to keep an eye on the action more easily, i'll take snapshots of the screen when i get a chance and post them in the thread

If anyone can set up a camera around the track, it'd be great to get some good footage of the race, im going to test out an on board camera and will try and set up a camera on a tripod to capture some of the action, also I'm twisting the arm of Andre (casso club member) to come down with his quadcopter and get some footage, so be aware that this thing might be flying around the track but its all in aid of getting some of the action recorded

Motors will be available from the club on this Sunday the 19th during the club meeting, if you want to grab them early just head up to race control. As always we thank Ari and Hobby Express importers and his retail store RC Hobby Shop Sydney - Australian Hobby Store for their support

Blitzer enduro: As posted before, we'll cancel this race at for this year, but to those who have blitzers, dont despair, we'll come up with something for next year


Main enduro


Sloppy Jalopy racing, Pete is either running a T2 truck or Astute, decision pending
