I didn't get to last years event , but hope to attend this year ... it sounds like it is a great sucess ! Had you thought about a 5 or 6 race DT02 series ??? Racing at different tracks around the UK ??? If you had a team of helpers/commitee , then it would make it easier . See you on the start line !!!

Been playing with my new SRB Buggy Champ. After sorting a few minor build problems, I LOVE IT ! But as I am used to cars since the TA02, was wondering if I should fit a diff or not ???
Never had an SRB when I was young , got my first Tamiya RC when I started working in London (1989/90) . Should an SRB be kept original or modified ??? Help and comments appreciated , Cheers

Hi mate,
Good luck to you; it would be nice to see an offroad tracks in this area catering for 1/10th electric. Nitro is pretty well covered with the track near Rayleigh, but that track is far too big for 1/10th buggies IMO. The only other track in these parts is MERCC which is up near Chelmsford way. It's not a bad track, but a bit too grassy for my liking! Have you got a bit of land that you can use or are you looking to find some?
I think the best offroad tracks are muddy and dusty, the 3A raceway near Gatwick is a superb track to use for ideas/reference.
I currently race touring cars indoors, but if there was a good outdoor venue for 1/10th electric buggies locally I would definitely give it a go. And perhaps the venue could also be used for the occasional weekend Tamiyaclub drives too?
thanks for the reply and info.
i am currently in discussions about a plot of land - so it all depends on how that goes!
Tamiyaclub events are a definite - fingers crossed!

Calling All Off Road Racers!
Is anyone in Essex, or the surrounding areas, interested in off road rc racing???
I am looking into starting a club near Billericay, Essex.
Any ideas, hints, tips from anyone would be appreciated.
What would people want from a new club and what would you expect from a track?
What classes would you want to race?
I look forward to hearing from you ,
Happy RC Racing.
