Not a competitive racer but more of a serious basher. I travel to circuits to enjoy my models though. My local track banned nitro a couple of years back due to noise regulations and a few moaners from nearby residents so my 8th got put in the cupboard to collect dust.
Spent the last couple years running electric Pro10 235mm as is the next best thing to 8th nitro (just can't find any love for TC's).
Anyway, decided to get my nitro out to play again this year and am willing to travel that bit further to another track to use it.
Spent last month or two slowly re-building my 960-08, it is looking fantastic and cannot wait to use it.
I am going to make the Cotswold track my local. I know they hold a round of the national there but I don't think they have a regular club meet for 8th.
Where is your local?
