10th on the Dirt at Coventry?
 
Hi all, Coventry Model Car Club is looking at running a 10th 'Dirtmasters' on a shortened version of the 1/8th scale track. This is slated to occur at the beginning of next season, when the dirt track has been freshly prepared and the 8ths haven't had a chance to chew the surface up!!

I have run my B4 round the track and it's a lot of fun, if I can get round anyone else will be able to!!

I would like to know if anyone is interested in such a race meeting and what people would want from it?

Sounds good if a control tyre is used :thumbsup:

jasonrcb 27-08-2011 05:06 PM

Count me in for that :thumbsup:

Bagman 27-08-2011 05:14 PM

I'd join the club if you did. Calibers would be a good control tyre if you needed one.

adam_u 27-08-2011 05:25 PM

Sounds like a good laugh to me, I'd give it a go too :thumbsup:

Get a roof put over it, then it would be all weather! :-). Seriously though, I would if I still did 10th buggy.

GRIFF55 27-08-2011 05:55 PM

Sounds great! Would it be a series or just a big one off event?

graveltrap 27-08-2011 06:02 PM

Right now it would be a one off event, the calendar gets very full over the summer so putting a series on would be tough.

I've bought and tried a few different tyres so we are getting an idea of what works, tyre wear also doesn't seem to be an issue :)

budgio 27-08-2011 06:26 PM

Yes !
Bring it on

panch 27-08-2011 06:36 PM

Bagman 27-08-2011 07:16 PM

That's a good question, 2wd and 4wd for me.

gainsy 27-08-2011 07:28 PM

Right now it would be just 2wd and 4wd, purely for a numbers reason. Trucks already get to play anyway ;)

We'll do our very best ;)

neiloliver 27-08-2011 08:02 PM

Yep. :thumbsup:

GRIFF55 27-08-2011 08:16 PM

How about tyres that have been nominated from previous euros? I'm sure people who have been before would be willing to part with/ sell them?
Count me in for a one off event FO SHO!:thumbsup:

1rcdad 27-08-2011 08:46 PM

yep sounds good ,looking forward to it.

telboy 27-08-2011 09:08 PM

That sounds like an excellent idea!
Get CML to sponsor it and provide control tyres as part of the entry fee. That way it saves us having to hunt around for tyres. :)

Awesome idea. Why should the nitro boys have all the fun?:thumbsup:

taz5311 29-08-2011 08:35 PM

Excellent track and facilities, so will definately be there

The Chef 29-08-2011 10:46 PM

James 30-08-2011 04:18 PM

Now that..... Is a great idea Griff!! Ive got new and barely used calibers M4 and M3, best price boss....:D

russmini 30-08-2011 04:18 PM

Definitely be up for it.

RogerM 02-09-2011 08:31 AM

Definitely so long as there was a single control tire (including compound and insert) for all those who have no experience with dirt tires.

Ritchie T 02-09-2011 02:13 PM

I did consider having a bit of a play on there after a club meet on the astro but it looked a little rough. If it gets tarted up a bit then definatly :)

reg 02-09-2011 02:56 PM

i took my durango round last year,it is an awsome track,it hadent been dressed like they are doing so it should be even better:thumbsup:

Ritchie T 11-11-2011 02:21 PM

I got some cheap hole shots and ribs, hope this is still on :)

Shaun 'TheSheep' Atkinson 11-11-2011 05:38 PM

I had a run on the dirt track with my 10th a few week ago, brilliant fun!! :)

Just a bit dusty lol
