For those that don't know,

as part of the Oople Invernational 2012, this Friday @ 7pm is a vintage race.

There are a few Tamiyas in there, including my Terra Scorcher:

GAINSY - TAMIYA FOX
NORTHY - RC10 6 GEAR GRAPHITE
MARK SUTCLIFFE - MARDAVE METEOR
STU EVANS - RC10 6 GEAR
JAMIE PATON - RC10 6 GEAR
JAMES BURGESS - TAMIYA GRASSHOPPER
ANTHONY POTTER - TAMIYA GRASSHOPPER
CRAIG MAWSON - MRC MRX 2WD
JIM DIXON - KYOSHO OPTIMA
PHIL CAMPBELL - TAMIYA MANTA RAY
CHRIS PATTINSON - TAMIYA TERRA SCORCHER

I've got no idea how my Terra Scorcher will do, it has period Futaba MC210CB ESC, and a 23T stock motor, other than that, it is stock. I have refreshed the shock seals and oil, but it hasnt turned a wheel in 22 years.
I'll try to get a video of the race, I suspect some of the other cars will be running much faster brushless gear...... I just hope there are no breakages.

I wish I could go to the Invernational (shame I can't afford to go overseas and join the event)!

Anyway, I'll be following the oOple website closely, it should be a lot of fun - both the regular competition and the Beer and Vintage races! :D
