We're currently on 54 entrants with 114 entries.

Entry closes in 2 days. No entry changes after Sunday either.

All entrants will receive an email next week detailing the day and important points like the schedule, transponders, format, points, battery charging etc.

A big thank you to Gainsy for posting up details on here for me.

Cheers. John

Please do try and put GHz Radio in your Wheelie if you can.

The XX4 is as ready as its going to be.....considering that its a fairly recent chassis, it still took nearly a full day to make the Lipo Straps and the Lipo Compartment Recesses ... all from recycled XXX Parts.

I've still got to tweak the Ball Diffs, Slipper, One Way and Shocks...... Is the track open on the Saturday for 'tweaking'? ..... anyone going down on the Saturday at all if the track is open?

I'm gonna be like a 'kid in an old model shop' seeing all these models next weekend! Can't wait!

Wish I'd still got my old Wild Willy for the Wheelie Comp!!!

Without tires you won't come far.

But it's looking nice.

What a fantastic event, great to meet a lot of the oOple, IconicRC and TC guys

I walked away with 1st in Pro 4wd 1979 to 1988 (Cat XLS) which was an added bonus!

Cheers,

Dan
