It’s Hobby Station week and tomorrow night (Wed ) is the night for fantastic touring car action.
No points – no trophies – no prizes – just fantastic racing and great company.
Be there in time for some practice before a 7pm sharp starting time.
There will definitely be Touring cars in 540, stock and mod and although I haven’t heard I assume there will be 1/12th as well. So don’t miss it.

Sounds like some fun to be had Heavy!!!
And is Scotty G or Big Mac making an appearance? I have a new toy to play with (hopefully)…………………..give you a hint…………It’s RED!!! Just like what Darth Vader uses and Darth Moor uses!!! I have succumbed to the darkside!!!
I know the flea will be sweeping the track for us all during the day. So the track will be nice and clean/grippy by the time most of us get there!!!LikeLike

Looks like Steve Smith and Darren Perry will be there as well racing mod. Probably not Scott and don’t think Big MAC will be down either.

So let me just confirm the new Oxford Dictionary definition for the word ‘never’.
NEVER: (noun) (pronounced NEV-A). (1) A period of approximately 48 hours. (2) The time it takes for the last brushed mod motor in Queensland to be retired… 😉LikeLike

Youre going to put that into a purple car?
Are you colourblind or what?? better hurry up and get the matching car 😉LikeLike

If he had the orange red one, it has a purple heat sink!

Jason, patience my friend.
Scotty G, I think I might have said “Never” to a Orange powered unit! But there was a hint that it might be a Blue/Black or even RED unit from memory. And yes the orange one would probably match the purple machine better with its purple heatsink, but you can have too much of a good thing so that’s why I have gone with the mighty RED!!!
RED always goes fatser!!! Don’t you know anything!!! (hehehe)
By the way, if you are still chasing some 64dp gears for the Schuie, I have from my Schuie days some brand new RW machined delrin spurs in 118t (which if converted is approx the same as the 89t in 48dp).
Let me know.LikeLike

Oops forgot to add……
Jason, where were you on the weekend??? Stop trolling the net and get out and start racing!!!
You need to keep cranking that shaft drive over before it stalls!!!! (hahahaha)LikeLike

I will be at Bayside this weekend. might give the new belt drive a run too 😉
Oh and BTW its “MAUL” – could be used to describe your driving style (or lack of..)
lol!LikeLike

Scott, give yourself an uppercut lol!
Both Bob and the Flea have that record – and Lenny will soon be joining them!
In my defense I will say that my car choices have not been competition related – as both of my blue bling machines have served me well.
Finally, I am a collector, so really I HAVE to keep buying cars 😉LikeLike

True – I forgot about Barger (and Adrian for that matter)! 😉

Do you change your underpants as often as your speed control? 😉
What motor did you opt for to go with the lurp?LikeLike
-
LURP all the way (motor and esc). 4* motor.
And YES, I change my underpants more often (for your information)!!! 😉
All I have to say is that the LURP runs very cool!!! Time will tell how it performs in the heat and what the speed is like compared to the sintered 3.5…….but it looks promising 🙂LikeLike

Actually Scott, that’s how Leonard knows it’s time for a new pair of undies!
