Default Minis

Hello mini fans.
I have noticed that the mini class has become somewhat insane.
I dont think that everyone is enjoying it anymore. Some are, sure but I remember having more fun with the minis when they were not so insane.

Is anyone interested in using a set motor?
23t ansmann motors are very cheap (£8) and i'm sure dave can get them as they are ansmann.

I wouldnt even mind using a silver can motor, the one that comes with the kit as they make for really close racing.

I dont know everyones opinion but I have spoken to 3 other mini class drivers and they are of the same opinion so thats 4 of us there.

I also think that any hop ups should be allowed as people like to bling and hop ups dont make a massive difference on minis. Not with a 23t motor anyway, which are not slow by the way.

Chris.

We have some idea's in place for september but for the time being I will be spliting slower cars/drivers in to 2 heats, this friday as I was the only slow driver, I just did the one heat.

If anyone wishes to be in the slower heat, please let me know.

My thanks to Chris for checking out my Mini last week.. Although kinda depressed as I've got no excuses now apart from my being a crap driver !


Guess I need to be in the slower heats Dave.. Although I've got a HPI 20t motor. Not that it feels like it as everyone comes flying past.

My setup is a Tamiya 101, HPI 20t Clash ? but stock apart from that. I realise I'm a crap driver but it isn't half demoralising when it looks like your car is in reverse.
