Fancy a bash in Kent?

Recommended Posts

The AA seemed to have no problem in finding my Golf in this place. l gave them a call on the mobile and they knew exactly where to find me!!!!!

Speaking of Golf l also think l have wrecked my RC Golf too!!!!! So it wasn't a very friendly VW meet. That said Barbra's Beetle came home in one piece including ribbons.

With regards to the turn out, well 3 isn't bad l suppose when you condsider its been 8 months since we all last met and no doubt probably wouldn't recognise each other.

Anyone who has a date and a place, post it up. Lets make this a free for all!!!!!

Everything REALLY is broken now.....

LOL - I think the jumps and my mini did the Golf body, but the mechanical damage was due 100% to your full speed oblique curb/RC interface :-D

At least your Beetle survived, unlike my poor poor Brat hard body.

Few drift pics are up now, although there wasn't much filming or picture taking compared with the normal meets.

It has been suggested that some of you might fancy a go at some tarmac electric saloon car racing, well you could come along to the club I go to in Tonbridge, for a bit of racing fun, you don't HAVE to take it seriously........ :D visitors are welcome, and the first meeting is for free :)

www.wkrcc.co.uk

Let me know what you think......there is a meeting next Sunday (16th Sept) and on Sunday 30th Sept, then a months break before the indoor winter carpet series starts, this is not really an option though, as it is strictly on a pre-book basis and taken a little more seriously :)

Feel free to drop me an email if there is any interest or you have any questions.....

Me too :D . Excellent choice of date, fits in between racing commitments and moving office commitments for me, so I'll definitely be up for it! Can't wait to give the Kent terrain another go.

Checked and not going to be able to make it - I'm at the quad racing event on Margate beach on the bash date.

I'll have to make the next one or hit an Eastern/reading bash.

Have fun all.

BIG thanks to Chris & Nikki for arranging another superb KB today! :P

Plenty of carnage of course (which is a good thing!) but most breakages seem to have been suffered by our host's cars - I believe he managed to kill 6 cars in total!! :P I came away with just a lost Savage wheel nut and a broken Lunchbox body mount - not bad considering!

It's difficult to settle on a 'best bit' really because it was all good but catching up with old mates, flying the E-Storms, and the MFU in Cliff's Hi-Lift have to be in there somewhere! Anyway, tremendous fun all round and I'm already looking forward to the next one! ...my littl'uns are already pleading to go again too! :)

Yep, it was a great day out, the weather held nicely too and it didn't start raining until I got home and started tidying up.

Highlights of the day for me was that my Ezilla is working a treat with it's new motors, so the ESC didn't suffer any damage when it went up in smoke last year (Shame I managed to break 2 of it's shocks in as many minutes though :) ), giving my Rush Evo a run after it's been sitting on the shelf for over a year, and learning to jump the Baja Champ, getting some big air and I didn't even break the chassis :P .

I had a couple of breakages today; the Ezilla broke 2 shock bottoms, and the Lunchbox steering is a goner (took a while to even notice that :P ). I've got a nice shiny set of ally shocks for the Ezilla - they were going to go on Ebay but now I've got a good excuse to unwrap and use them. And the LB will get either a bodge job, or a replacement with the re-re steering bits.

Top day, looking forward to the next one :D .

Hi Chaps, :blink:

Ive been out of the RC scene for a while but it would be great to meet up with some of the faces from the old KB's and have a laugh.

My next weekend off is the 30/31st of Aug, So I propose a meet on the 31st (Sunday) at the old KB site in Maidstone (Penenden Heath) of course this will all depend if anyone is up for it or will be able to make it. ;)

Can anyone who would like to meet up on that sunday let me know so I can get started sorting the cars out (not touched them for about 6 months now! lol!)

Hopefully a few of the faithful will show and maybe a few new faces.

See Yawl la8ers fellas.....Chris

Hi all, I too have been away from RC for what seems ages! 31st sounds good for me, I will definitely be up for it, subject to getting some time out for good behaviour. Looking forward to brushing the cobwebs off my motley assortment of rides :blink: .

At the moment, I'm not entirely sure if that's do-able as we're planning a trip to the 'Ring, and that's the favourable date for the trip.

I'll let you know asap, would be great to meet up with you again Chris, Jozza and the others.

Hmmmm think i'll wait and see how the holiday goes before I try my luck with that to be honest Chris, depends how the kids behave whilst we are away as to the mood she is likely to be in when we return :) (hope I am not making it sound like she is a dragon!)

If I can make it......great :lol: if not, have a good bash and arrange another soon please :lol:
