HAHA! I would, but I haven't got that track and I am too broke to spend the money on stuff like that right now

If only we could recreate VRC Carpet 2 or Rhein-Main

I thought the track was ace too! Really fun, loved the tight bits. And something went wrong with my car in every race too!

In the first race I killed a silvercan (confirming my hatred of sealed can motors without an internal fan).

Then on the second race I lost a wheel (stupid Mardave diff design!).

Then on races 3 and 4 I ran out of batteries (Bloody NiMHs!).

Next week will run lipos... Car should be lighter and quicker.

Good laugh as always, may run the 6 wheeler next week as the f104 is heading for the bin .... Oh and the TB04 may make an appearance to battle with Charlie as my Herbie just didn't have it in her tonight :-(

Just want to say that Martins TA looked well sorted tonight ... Cheater

You haven't had a TL-01 :-) versatile, you can make just about anything out of it. But assembled as per manual... it really is a good for nothing POS.

I really enjoyed last nights track well done gui ;-) the only ammendment that could possibility be made would be to the triangle infront of the rostrum to remove the 90 degree marker that claimed quite a few victims last night. I think the track for next week is going to be put to a public vote :-)

What sort of amendment were you thinking of Martin? Looking where you're going, for instance?

Really liked the track,although iv never been a fan of the straight up the middle,to many cars going in different directions in close quarter(Q the Pun from Paul!) but the 20 year old F103 survived my best efforts to destroy it due to its lack of anything resembling a setup,or even the right bits to put a setup on it,
Looking forward to getting it sorted,

Must admit to getting the F1 itch again now there are a few more appearing. Can't decide whether to stick to off-road or to switch to the F1 for a while...

6 looks good, and 8 with no long straights looks kinda different.
