We’re racing again next Thursday, April 22nd.
With news of a couple of new Short Course truck drivers nearly ready to join the action, we could be looking down the barrel of splitting to two heats of SC. If we do, we’ll run the heats separately, with the fastest going into the A final, next group into the B final. SC racing is definitely spectacular and we’re loving it at Launceston R/C.
Other classes this week? I reckon we’ll see a field of tourers and minis, a group of 8th scale big bangers, and our usual 10th offroad class.
Next week we’re hoping to announce details of a club general meeting. It’s time for us to start getting the club organised, planning for track improvements, thinking more about promotion and so on. Details soon.
Hope to see you at Rutherglen next Thursday night.

KNow how you feelling Greenie waiting for my parts for the Blitz and the Revo.
Dividing the short course trucks would be a good idea Scott.Good to see more trucks being bought.
Replace the Kyosho? Why would you wanna do that Josh!!
Especially with a Bandit!! 😛
i already got the bandit and even know it is 2wd it handles way better than the kyosho…… btw the kyosho was going through flaming parts like water…. anyway see ya thursday
Just like to say be out there with my B44 next week thanks for Paddy for doing a great job and soon be out there with alot of new toys when Paddy gets them done.
Will have 2 more newbies tagging along this thursday, one Kyosho DBX and a Brushless HSP 1/10…. Both even newer to the sport than me and Steve!
Is it Thursday tomorrow? no…. Dam
Woohoo!
Hi all,
WIll have another 2 people coming with me and steve this Thursday… Both never raced before….. One driving a DBX and the other a 1/10 hsp brushless buggy!!
Is it Thursday yet??
Ben
The 1/8 nitro revo has been converted to electric will be there thursday night for a test run.Looking forward for more mayhem and carnage
Mayhem and carnage are things I usually try and avoid on the racetrack!!
Looks like I’m out tonight, I’ve been crook, so I won’t be back till the next meet 😦
Sorry to hear that Richard, get well soon and we’ll see you next time.
Just a few hours to go folks, and I’m excited. Faster steering servo installed in the BLitz for this week….look out rocket I’m gunning for two in a row!
We could top 10 SC trucks this week – if my maths is right, there are now 15 or 16 SC racers out there, just depends on how many might show up tonight!
And Im one of them to see how my slash is going to go tonight and hopefully my batteries last a bit longer tonight compred to Latrobe last weekend! See ya tonight folks James
Wish I could make it, but sadly not this time.
Have fun tonight and see you all on Sunday!!!!
….still hoping parts will arrive today………….. not looking good……… =O(
