Sunday 24th April
 
Bit of sweeping was required before we could start and there was a software issue with the lap timing, but still had a great day.

Thanks guys

Brilliant first time out at bury. Abit of work to clear the sand. Guna be an amazing track.
Lots of help from the lads with setup advice, cheers :D
Hopfully can get my 22 sorted for next raceday after breaking a wishbone And having bald tyres. ;(

Cheers lads.

Great weather today to make a good day even better! The track was great and there was some close racing as well, shame I stripped my spur gear but it will be better once the sand has gone.

Strangely sand didn't seem to bother the Bmaxes.

Too much motor bothered my truck, and crappy Bluebird servo's bothered my RC10 though. Seriously p!$$ed that I have a brand new servo die after less than 10 mins running.

Johnny - I'll be needing them 6000's back so don't 'Johnny' them. Using 2 packs of them should save me having to recharge at the track, thereby getting around the lack of mains electric.

Hopefully Rog can sort the slight 'glitches' in the timing system.

Yeah its strange, had virtually no sand in my bmax when I got home. Plenty in my shoes though.

I have 1 slight mark in the spur teeth where a stray grain got in, otherwise its fine.

As usual, it was me. Something simple staring me in the face. Sorry.

That might have been the cause for the handouts, but for my PT it has to have been the wire you had to change on the loop. Next time I'll try it back on the chassis where it belongs and see if it works there with the better wire.

I'm going to work on the wire. Going to try and make our own black box.
