Short Course Trucks: heats every week at SHRCCC

[Dudders]

Rumour has it people might want to bring some SC10 trucks down. If there are 4 trucks min we'll put on a race each night throughout the winter racing period (Also the Winter Open meeting on the 4th of December.

Now where did i leave my big dump truck

[TARTMAN]

I dont own one........... YET, but i think i may be tempted to get one, whos got a cheap 2nd hand SC racer i can do a deal on?

[Berky]

i think we should run a truck class -we can do combo of Short Course and Stadiums

I bought a T4 so would be fun - just wondering if it can jump like my B44

[TARTMAN]

I am sure, we can run a heat if we get 4 or more wanting to run em.
I am happy to run a SC if someone sells me one VERY cheap.......

fun fun fun.................................

[Berky]

on here or eBay - I got my T4 for £40

[TARTMAN]

let me know if another turns up cheap. i may miss it.

Id definatly be up for running a stadium truck, i used to run a XXT years ago and that was a huge laugh!!!

[Dudders]

4 cars and we'll run... even if its a multi class

[TARTMAN]

I am on the hunt for a cheap SC so thats one, and i am sure we can get a few of the lads to get them going those that have em..........

would be fun. both 2 and 4wd together indoors, prob not much between em anyway...........

anyone hear of a cheap one let me know................

Just don't buy an ansmann they don't size up well against the Hong nors and losis very well

[TARTMAN]

whats wrong with them?
Not after winning a national, just some fun and frolics and larfs...

U mentioned u might have a sc for sale? never heard anymore?

no rush on my part, just curious and IF on comes up at the right price........ might be tempted..... Have enough electrics spare so needs to be able to accept the buggy stuff...........

The 4wd ansmann is just a blizzard buggy with a truck shell where as the other trucks are based more on an 8th buggy chassis its just smaller in size and as for mine it went a Month or so a go had an offer I couldnt refuse on it. Rear wheel drive stadium truck from ansmann is a good shout for a laugh and at 49 english pounds for the kit doesn't break the bank just needs a 10quid bearing kit and away you go. Oh yeah its called a macnum similar to the t4

[TARTMAN]

but is a staduim truck OK as a SC truck? i thought they are different........

no rush, will see what comes up.... need to know more on them really, all new to me.....

There are not massive differences between the Stadium v Short Course - its really only body/wheels unless you want to get really technical but for us folk at SHRCCC the body and tires would be the only notable difference.

I got my T4 cheap and looked at the converting option but in fairness I prefer stadium to short course so wouldnt convert it - i am sure for us running stadium/short course 2wd/4wd combined class it will be great fun.

I am thinking of transferring the electrics from my B44 and sticking some new electrics in the B44 and maybe just maybe i might take 4WD a little more serious and have a laugh with my Stadium

Picking up HPI Blitz from those lovely guys at Apex next weekend as i hope this truck will suite my driving style. If you watch the real ones on TV they leave the track and end up on their roof.

Tarmac is for driving to your club
Carpet is for hoovering
Dirt is for racing or astro turf.

[TARTMAN]

Good choice, I would prob have got one of them if i hadnt decided on a Hong Nor..... and now have 2 of them lol....... in less than a week. oh dear.

SHRCCC will defo be running a SC/Truck heat by the sounds of it....... oh yes, lots of fun..............
