Also, since the interclub is the following weekend, so ur not really missing out on a race day.

Also, for those that were wondering, the canceled easter race will not be counted as a dropped round in the championship.
but its ok to put on a meeting for only a few people this weekend cos real racing fans will be at clipsal?! are you serious??? there will be no one there to watch either, so that throws that excuse out the window. so, whos giving up clipsal for cheap points?.........

Tiger Woods is getting $3mil for turning up, Timmy G would have to be getting close to that, plus endorsments and prize money..

I am points hunting this weekend...

No appearance fee or anything silly like that, I just need to test the reflexes in time for the State Titles in November. Will be my only appearance until then.

Hey All, LONG TIME NO SEE!!!

Well, things are looking up for me a bit at the moment, the Truggy is getting fixed (parts on in their way now from amain) so that will be hitting the dirt again late next week i hope BUT... something more exciting...

I am joining the Baja Owners club . Time to play with the big toys - I Got a RTR Rev2.0 from one of my Bro-Inlaws and have been having some fun spending up at DPS and RCBuggies . I will be set for some Baja bashing hopefully end of next week, depends on when the baja arrives.

Link in my sig has some updates about whats coming and stuff like that.

Hope to make it down to the track again in a few weeks with the MBX5T to have some laps!

And a 1/10th track too.....


With the amount of land available at MV, could a new track be designed so that all 3 classes could co exist on the same track with various cut throughs and jumps over sections of track to a make it happen?

When I was in Melb a few months ago there was some 1/5 racing on, it was on a simple rope track witrh some small jumps, patches of grass here and there, mainly dirt (not clay) but it was pretty smooth. Mainly MCD's and Bajas racing around, couple of monster trucks, sounded awesome having 6-7 buggies racing around together tho. Couple of the drivers were annoyingly slow tho, scared to even give their buggy a proper squirt, like the 1/4 rarcers at Penfield, just coast around given little revs...
