Thanks to the EPR team for all the hard work they put in for this meeting. It was a long but fun weekend, good time with mates and had fun racing. Have to say after the heat and camping for a couple of days was glad to get in the shower when I got home

Hope everyone that came along enjoyed the meeting as much as I did and finally thank you for supporting the event

A massive thank you to EPR & Horizon for all the hard work that had obviously gone into making the first TLR Supercup the huge success it was

It was my first time ever racing a buggy and wouldn't have made it past the first day without the help and advise so cheerfully given by Gharly Old Dog and Chris Delves, big thanks guys, your stars and a credit to Horizon, thank you. I had a fantastic weekend, loved every minute of it

Gharly, your more than welcome matey, they say in life you only get back what you put in, and it was MY pleasure to be able to give you something back Hope you get a chance to use them.

Terry

Keith

Made me laugh......."Racing God", more like "Racing Idiot"

Actually, there have been several offers for my shell. Ellis offered me £300, Trish £350 and Losi wanted to use the spray job as the "face" of the TLR 22.

Your just jealous.

Regards

Andy

It's amazing what some people will pay just to keep something off the street - or the track in this instance.

I say ignore them Andy - they're your colours and you should be proud of them.

Besides, it'll be a real test for Graham to see if he can replicate them for you

It wouldn't be the same if you changed your colours

A report and pictures are coming soon. We'll post a link as soon as we can.

Ellis ran both the Tamiya and the Kyosho - it didn't seem to make much difference to him - he was too fast with both of them.

Danny ran him close and to be fair, TQ was being shared between the pair of them throughout the event in both 2WD and 4WD but E loves FTD for a reason and he made it count when he had to.

But hats off to the pair of them. It could have gone either way (IMO) and it was great to see such good qualifying battles where the racers weren't trying to protect an in-round position but going flat out for the single fastest time.

Awesome.

Yep! There were several photographers on site during the weekend, representing the host club, EPR, RCC Racer Magazine and HH UK, there must have been hundreads of images taken which I'm sure all parties are currently working there way through, so watch this space or related web sites for more details!

Big E ran 2 x 4WD! 511 and Kyosho, in fairly equal amounts from what I saw!

And Mr. Langdon, we will be checking that you use those vouchers, we won't let you forget!

Cheers for that update, yes Ellis at Epr is a force to be reckoned with what ever he drives, I loved watching with with his Pred X11, that was awesome!

Look forward to the report and pics

I will make this comment short and sweet and in a way that it can never be mis-understood!!


"SUPERB in every detail"

EPR organisers and Horizon personnel should be real proud of your efforts and achievements......ps - I am sure I got more monies worth of stuff in my entry goodie bag than my entry fee - LOL

Was a great weekend, really enjoyed it! Certainly came away with more shiny things worth more than the entry cost! Plus we had the great weather to top it off

Thanks to all that put it on and I hope there's a 2nd TLR Cup next year
