LEE71 53 Posted July 25, 2022 I see your just up the coast. I'm only newly back to this. Where do you run RC in the NE? I've not been on track since'88 and would love to get a bit of casual track time in! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is an indoor winter club meeting at Nissan and an astroturf outdoor track at the same venue for 1/10 off road. I’ve only been once, wasn’t for me. I must admit, i just prefer building them these days Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

His plan at around 18 was to cycle to Kent to find work, but met Grandma in Hartlepool and that’s where he stayed til the ripe old age of 99. It must have been the daily Newky Browns that kept him healthy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BITD it seemed that every other town had some sort of club! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes that wire is an unusual fiddly way of attaching the mesh, Tamiya had some odd ways back in the day. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
