Tyred,
best 2 mow the track 1st then spray will get best results that way.If chemical is applied at 2 high or low rate it wont b as effective and in some cases can actually fertilize the applied area ,some dyes can neutralize the chemical ,2 me it seems the chemical has actually fertilized the track not killed it going on the color ,the section i had done seemed 2 b dying quite well ,got 2 get on top of it quickly 2 get it under control 4 2011 season,
cheers

howdy fellas... doesn't this rain suck... sorry to hear about so much of it. If there are chances of it drying up, i'm definately keen for a run sometime between christmas and new years (christmas side of things would be great), and I know that heavy and Scotty G would also be keen for a run. Let us know what's happening steve and we'll see if we can squeeze in a short course run! cheers all.

sounds good but all will depend on the rain (so far the forecast is for up to 40mm christmas day) but we will wait and see.
Im sure there will be a few blokes up for a days running (Scott P, Harry, Knuth,Aaron S,Peter Becket,Rodney , and myself maybe even Aussie Bob)
May be 27/28 December let me know your preferred date. i can open any time so just let me know.

Remember we still run 17.5 open speedy and 10.5 up is mod.

Not this ime
Steve,
cant make it on that date as in Sydney for Chrissie, but may find it a bit of a problem in the future as I started a new job as a "photgrapher of fast and exotic cars and trucks" around your area at "anytime and anywhere".
If i get a day or night off I will race as Lismore, Coffs and Belligen are all going ahead in leaps and bounds.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.

Mate depends how much you would like to spend ,parts availability , which batteries (saddle packs or sticks) in saying that its up to you what you would like.
Have a talk to the guys at the track and they should be able to help you out.

WHAT 2 BUY
mate those prices r a bit high 4 those cars imo have a look at the kyosho zx5 fs2,tamiya trf 502 and the durango dex410r all these cars use saddle pack batteries,parts r easy 2 get from os and cheap way cheaper than lhs. Losi is an old car now and way over priced 4 such an old car,B44.1 but quality is a bit up and down.I run the durango ,great car as it is more or less a 1/10 version of a 1/8th scale buggy,geardiffs r the way 2 go way less maintenence.IMO stick with japanese or german car brands as quality is unsurpassed.The americans just dont do enough quality control and the schumachers r good cars but have way 2 many moving parts 2 fail as we no they do.Cheers
