    Proof that a faster motor isn't always an improvement, and a silver can is capable on the right terrain.  I probably missed it in the rules for 2025 video but what happens when both cars get 2 points each?

    We have a sudden death lap each fastest time progresses! Should be fun if it happens!!

    It is time for Season 4 of the Orchard Raceway to get underway. I have been out and run 5 of the first 8 races from round 1. Been filled with excitement, upsets and a horror crash which has left an RC in pieces! Shaping up to be another great year out on the Orchard in 2025

    Here is the link to the first round draw.

    @Twinfan I think that is some sound logic. I was thinking it would be close to the Top Force Evo in terms of pricing but I had not considered the pink motor. £399 RRP with some places offering it at £369 is where I feel it will be. Going to be a great kit if it comes for those of us dreaming of one. Wonder if there is anywhere that still has the original Rere priced on their website.... I am off to check.

    Great question @Kol__

    I have been really disappointed with some of the offers which is why I put this topic up to try and capture some of the genuine good deals. Seems they are really hard to come by this year!! I was hoping for something a little better but it seems that the usual offenders are offering usual prices under a Black Friday sale banner. Be careful out there RC shoppers 👍🏻

    Thought I would start this up for those wonderful deals heading our way over the next few weeks. Be careful out there as I am seeing plenty of “deals” going up which are clearly not deals! I will try and keep anything good that comes up in this thread added below and will remove them if they sell out or change.

    DEALS

    Here are a couple of great deals I have noticed this week:

    Not Black Friday specifically but interesting to see that the Rising Fighter is back to £65 including an ESC.

    One of the lowest prices I have seen for the MB01 Fiat Abarth 1000. I know this chassis has received mixed reviews but tempting at £130.

    Well, I'm sad if these two are being discontinued, even if we kind of knew already. I think they're ace. I'm even half tempted to pick up another, but I won't - I've already got one of each. 

    I think and was thinking the same. Such a shame and I hope that the parts supply and hop ups at least continue for a little longer!

    @Tamiyastef thanks so much for the comment dude!

    I really enjoy putting all this together and every year there are stories to tell. This season I have been some impressed with how the 2WD buggies performed out on the track they have really closed the gap on the 4WD. 

    I need to come up with a new idea for the rally cars for next year! Vintage 4WD coming next pal 👍🏻

    @simalarion

    Feels only fair I give you the whole lyrics

    *(Verse 1)*  
    In the days of rally’s prime, a legend shone,  
    Lancia Delta Integrale, carving its throne.  
    Turbocharged power, all-wheel drive might,  
    Blazing through the mountains, racing through the night.  

    Through mud and snow, it owned the track,  
    With lights cutting through, no turning back.  
    The roar of engines, a thunderous sound,  
    In the rally of dreams, it astounds.

    *(Chorus)*  
    Oh, Lancia Delta, you're the one,  
    Blazing trails, under the sun.  
    With every roar, with every scream,  
    You're the rally of dreams, the racing machine.  

    *(Verse 2)*  
    With every stage, you staked your claim,  
    Lancia Delta, immortal name.  
    Bold lines, iconic flair,  
    A champion’s heart, beyond compare.  

    In the hall of fame, your legend lives,  
    In every victory, the strength you give.  
    A symbol of power, pride so true,  
    Lancia Delta, we race with you.

    *(Chorus)*  
    Oh, Lancia Delta, you're the one,  
    Blazing trails, under the sun.  
    With every roar, with every scream,  
    You're the rally of dreams, the racing machine.
