If you need pins in a hurry, I find either body pins cut to fit or the crappy allen keys cut to fit do a fine job.

With any luck, we will have some racing but it just seems this weather does not want to let up.



Lucky you!

It seems Auspost only does tracking on express postage, even if the item had tracking, sucks I know.
lucky me indeed, otherwise I wouldnt be able to race this weekend due to cooking my motor last meet

my package never even showed up with auspost, and usps doesnt even register that ive signed and accecpted it yet. ahh well, its hear now. now i just need to get some time in playing with the gearing on the new motor so its good to go this weekend.

Durango's can only take 25mm packs, I guess that's what the seller is driving, awesome deal though.

I think I paid $15 for them. I read from multiple sources they are a more durable option for the Ultima DB/SC but they are too long and the pins too thick so I never used them.

Default Race Meet 14th August

It's nearly that time again to get ready for another weekend of rc action! The track fairies were out today and got 95% of the water of the track so the rest should hopefully dry up over the next few days. Thanks to the half dozen that went out, it's the members that make a club great and its fantastic to have so many enthusiastic members. Cheers guys! I think it's clearing drizzle forecast for sunday so hopefully that wont effect us.

We will have the BBQ out trackside this weekend so hopefully no more waiting for sausages! Hot and cold drinks will be available right throughout the day.

So come along and have a great time. Check and practice from 9:30am, drivers meeting at 10:20am, racing from 10:30am.

Note we will be a little more formal this week and there will be a drivers meeting. Make sure you check in before 10:20am so that numbers can be handed out during the meeting as well as the race order for the day.

See you all there!!!

track was in pretty poor shape thats for sure.

me pete and richard will head out again tomorrow, and more than likely saturday for another sweep, so as long as the weather holds out it should be alright by sunday.

went for a quick run on the on road track after you guys left to test out the new motor, seems to run nice and well so hopefully will be good to go sunday, just need to sort out the stearing trim with my new radio.
