I'll be there looking for a team tomorrow.
Let me know if anyone wants to hook up with an SC10 driver.

Think there is a few teams of 3 at the moment so shouldn't be a problem!

Tracks really good,blue grooving up nicely already.....

Tomorow will be great fun.....

Got some 1/8 Losi 8T Truggy action on the track today,Hayden let me drive it,lets just say that,the Halfpipe is a mere speedhump.....downsiding it pretty easy,im pretty sure one lap,i would have seen 80-90 kmh down the back straight....way to fast for something that big,but so much fun......

Thanks Hayden...legend mate

Seriously,the track is nuts

At the track today with the lads, nice day, awesome track.

Thanks for the SC10 tuning tips Justin and Hayden.
I have never spent that much time tuning a car at the track before, i feel like a factory driver.

Good to see Chris back from the sunny far north.

Brendan with his shiny new TRF 201x , and Shannon with his nice new T4.1
I think i need a new kit. . .

At least you got some action on the track today John, pity you will miss the Enduro tomorrow.

Hey Steve, i fixed the corner marker for you, no more broken Tamiya arms.

Bring on the Enduro tomorrow.

Good to see the SC10 getting some where Roman.....might try a few other things to get it sorted....im thinking yors and Haydens trucks may be 100-200 grams lighter.....especially yors,Hayden runs the slash reciever box too,so his will be heavier

Yors having that bit of weight taken out of the body didnt really like it..

good work on the corner too,i would have forgotten about that


New Kit.....Do tell

That is a sweet looking litttle buggy that Brendan has Roamy,are you jealous!!!

Wasn't that a Raiders of the Lost Ark ripoff movie. ?

Not your fault Steve, it was very high, around 10cm off the surface before.
