Default Newbie Looking to Join

Hi there,

I was told by one of the guys at Apex Models about your track. I can't believe all this time there's been a track right on my doorstep! It looks brilliant!

I've just got myself a 1/10th 2WD buggy (DEX210) and am looking to get into some racing. So, being new to racing, I just have a couple questions about the club - If you wouldn't mind answering them?

Is the track open to members on Saturdays for practice?

When could I next pop along to have a look at the club in action?

I'm very eager to try this out, so any help or advice would be really appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

Tris

That'd be great! I won't be able to run tonight as I've literally just got the buggy & am awaiting new LiPo's but I'll certainly come along to check the track out & have a chat about membership etc.

What time do you run til on a Thursday? I likely won't be able to pop along until about 7.30/8pm.

Hi Tris

It's Keith (fluxman) from MSUK, I was lucky enough to try out SHRCCC tonight as a friend let me use his buggy.

Was great fun and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Hmmmm..... do I need to add a 1/10th buggy to my collection...

Hi Keith, I think you know the answer to that one already! Are you joining the club then? Would be good to see a familiar face!

I finally managed to test out the Durango and get to grips with its handling characteristics this weekend, so I shouldn't be quite all over the place once on the track! lol

Is the next meet this Thursday then guys? If so, I will 100% be attending!

Perfect, thanks!

Sorry to ask such stupid questions! lol

I'll assume from now that the meets are always going ahead, unless specified on here.
