Default Practice needed!

Hi All,

I'm coming back to 1/10th offroad after a long time away. I've bought an Associated B44 and am waiting to get some electrics.

I hope to race at Bury, but want to get a bit of practice in first. Is the Bury track open for practice anytime other than race day?

Do you have any restrictions on electrics (I'm not planning on earning points) ie. Lipos, brushless etc...?

Do any of you have recommendations for shops to buy the electrics from?

Thanks for any replies.

Thanks.

I bought the b44 from BMM, I'll hopefully get a decent price for the electrics.
I'm (pleasantly) surprised you can just walk onto the track. I think I'll head down soon.

Drove to the track yesterday.

I'm guessing you need a field/12V charger or is there a mains supply on race days?

I use a generator although a 12v battery would easily do!
