Default Coffs Harbour Racing Northern NSW.

Hi all.
Just letting you all know, there is a new on road racing club in Coffs Harbour.
We race the Last sunday of every month.
We cater for Electric and Nitro including 1/8.

Where we race...
Just south of the main town is a kinda service centre, BP, maccas, subway, red rooster... so on. We have been given full use of a large serperate section of the car part. Its Tar.

Any questions please ask!!!

Thanks
Michael

Default race meet

The first race meet was held today and it is a good friendly club, anyone from Taree to Lismore should come and have a go, plus near plenty of food and the weather is always tops. Thanks to everyne for the friendly welcome today. The best thing is the OUTLAW class, any 1/10 car, any motor, any battery and any body including 1/10 frewer wedges.

Default motor

Midg, i was running a LRP 17.5, with a good pack of 5200 lipos, all at a legal level. I have a good body that i can now finally use in Outlaw, the famous one from Aussie titles. I also picked up a new M05Pro for my birthday with all the blue bling that you can get, (Thanks Adam) so i now have a very good M03 with blue thingos for sale, (no electrics) hopefully someone from Coffs will get it and there should be another i have in a week or so for sale as well. Spoke to a few that saw the hobbywing go and were impressed so maybe a seperate class soon. I wil be there on the 27th as i get back to Coffs tomorrow, but thinking of going to QLD at the end of October as they have a major race up there then.
See you in a few weeks.

Top effort Michael,

Good spot that too.....I know it well.....the big grassy section beside the BP is traditionally where I let my dog out for a piss when we are on the half yearly car trip up to the Gold Coast to visit family

Next challenge = setting up a 1/10 EP off road club locally as well?

Cheers

I hear that the guys want to get mini up and running. I have a M03R that I am selling. It is a proven race winner and has all the parts you are allowed to upgrade as per the CC09 rules. I am willing to let this go to a Coffs local first to try and help out kick starting the minis. Aussie Bob will have the car down at the next race meet. If your interested before hand, get Aussie Bob to PM the price

Aussie Bob owned that shop. We both raced behind the showground as well with Yokomo Dogfighter YZ-10's.
