Show Your Short Course......
 

C'mon then lets see em - get pics up of your sct and let us know what your racing plans are over the winter months or next summer :thumbsup:

Here's mine - with it's brand new shell on that I will use once I get to grips with my truck a bit more and get more experience, don't wanna pay £70 for the shell only to shred it

My plan is to get racing in where I can over the winter/spring and hope to try the nationals for experience next summer all being well.

Just made a 1st time membership at YORCC and raced in the SCT Club Championship Round 1 last weekend which was sweet, roll on round 2 :)

Hopefully there will be some other SC races over winter not too far away to get more experience in on the path to becoming a better driver so I can take my 'L' plates off for good ;)

I am already looking at getting a 4WD too, front runner at the moment is the Tekno :)

heres my desc210

fairly new to racing, but currently doing club nights at a1 racing club, also running in the iceman series at a1 racing club, the first round was last sunday and finished 3rd overall in the 2wd short course class

looks sweet pal :) sounds like your a pretty decent driver already with that result, nice one :)

yeah my driving has come on well, the club nights help, when your up against faster and more experienced drivers you quickly learn to pick the pace up and to be consitant so as not to be left at the back of the pack :)

I am just looking round to see of more racing opportunities that would be possible to get to, as at present its just yorcc once a month in their club championship rounds. For me just now I just need to drive better on the slippy sections indoors at yorcc, just couldn't get to grips with it in round 1literally, felt like driving on ice lol and couldn't keep the car moving forwards consistently on the slippy s bends without slipping sideways....and I wasn't pressing the gas hard either, I think I'm more a steady driver than an aggressive one :)

Team C 2wd and 4wd from 2014 season
 

it will all fall into place over time, i focused on being consistant at first, once i managed that my times just fell without really pushing, im at the stage now i can go and do 3 rounds of qualifying and run near identical average lap times in each round, now im just starting to push a little harder to try and get my avg times closer to my fastest lap, but like i said club nights help a lot, when theres a faster car in front you can pick up where there carrying more speed, or braking later ect, also dont be afraid to ask for advice or tips,
if you dont mind travelling get yourself booked into the iceman series at a1 racing club, its a 40 mile drive for me but its a cracking club and a great day out

nice paint jobs there - you do them yourself or someone do them for you :)

shizzle I forgot totally about the iceman series, dammit :cry: will check it out now see what the crack is.....is there a fair few trucks racing?

ps - forgot to ask, have I seen that shell before? where did you get it pal?

last round we started with 8 trucks i think, but down to 6 in the finals, also a 4x4 class too which was fun to watch,
shell i have just had painted, by extreme-fx

ok pal cool - just been looking and its about 1hr 50mins away from me, so that's cool and should be a straight run on an early sunday morning :) so if I can get the wife to let me play I'm in lol :)

nice shell :)

All looking good guys :thumbsup: look forward to racing you at the Nats next year :thumbsup:

look forward to trying to keep up with you boys :)

what tyres were being used for the iceman series do you know? I have mini spikes and kourse kings for outdoors in case I need to buy some others?

i started off with koursekings on rear, silver minispikes front as was a little damp, as it dried out i ended up on yellow m/spikes rear with silvers up front still

ok pal cheers :)

gonna get myself booked into the iceman series as soon as I pay for my brca membership - which will hopefully be available to do online sometime today :)

brill, its a great days racing :thumbsup:

awesome - sounds like you get a fair few races too, if I have worked it out and understood it correctly :)

3 quals and 3 finals in total, so plenty of track time

:woot:

I'm in - SCT Iceman Series round 2 ( do you pay on the day for it or do they send you a payment request)?

can pay on the day mate

I assumed everyone did pal as I didn't see anywhere to pay when I entered online.....unless I missed it?

Yes its pay on arrival.

thanks pal :) just debating wether to enter the 2wd buggy class too....unsure if I would have enough time between races with a buggy and sct.....and being a beginner buggy racer is it outta my league?

Custom XRAY xb9 sct.

Cool :thumbsup: do you get plenty of racing in? Over there is the U.S its pretty popular, much more then here in the UK which is a shame .

Give it a go Phil, it's a nice and relaxed day. many of us are running more than one class.

Cheers

Chris

hi Chris, thought you had gone into winter hibernation pal lol not seen you round here as much lately. Might try 2wd buggy class too, will decide maybe end of the week:)

Desc210, lovely to drive and great fun. Don't get to drive it so much unfortunately. Must do better.

Yup, by the talented Jon Miller (RCS)

cool - you got any races in mind over winter or next summer?

Will Be doing Iceman series at A1 racing, A1 summer series and short course nationals maybe a few regionals

sweet, also doing the iceman series myself, although I missed round 1 as I didn't have a truck then and I am a new racer so go steady on me as you whizz past me pal :p hope to do the nationals too as well and will also look to see what other races are on too :)

desert raid
 

managed to fudge a proline desert raid body shell on my desc410! but only just....had to sacrifice a couple of shock towers to extend the mounts...

dont be shy peeps, last time I looked on the iceman website there was only Shaun and I booked onto the sct race......need more drivers on it .......i assume there will be late entrants as there was only 3 booked onto the 2wd buggy race too :(
