Stories from the world of RC car racing

Now that the Logan track is officially open and baptised what’s next.
Well this week looks pretty good.
Wednesday night – Logan mid week mania. Mini, 1/18th (my buggy gets a debut at last), F1 – there are a couple of Corally making an appearance this week – if you can’t afford a Corally the Tamiya F103 is a very reasonable thing and cost very little.
Friday night you can take a chance and go out to Perin Drive Underwood and have a look at the new indoor 1/18th scale track – they might be open.
Saturday night (from 4pm) Bayside under lights EP and GP Onroad. I’ll be racing Gas if I don’t go Offroad.
Saturday night (from 4pm ) Chargers Offroad (EP 1/10th )
Sunday – who knows really – but I will be flying to Tassie.

    Tony I don’t discharge my receiver pack except in the car = in practice I get it pretty down. I usually charge it at 2 or 3 amps.
