got 8 road cars all up and running now including a posable 70mph car

[difflockxc]

i,d def be up for a bash if someone can give me a lift as i cant drive at the mo (shoulder injury) but i have lots of toys that need their first real run i.e my home built wk crawler, rere paj and hpefuly sometime soon a desert gator saturdays work best for me but might be able to do sun if thats the only day others can do

[Fatal_Error]

Does anyone know when Chris was going to be getting married. I thought it could well be soon...

I am unsure if i wil be able too make a bash.

Still need too sort out the cars from the last bash..

70mph car. is it an electric one?

[bonnerworld]

if he is/did get married, he is having a long honey moon

shall we set an unofficial date to have a play i shall throw a date in 19th april new tarmac maidstone place

what you all reckon

[difflockxc]

is ther anywere at this new place for crawlers and xcs as thats all i got

[Fatal_Error]

When we were last at the tarmac site we did not explore the ex crawling options in full.

There are some rocks around the pond area (in the middle of the roundabout) which one member played on a bit. The bank up towards to moterway at the back of the carpark was not explored.

This site is only just round the corner from the heath in tunbridge where there are deffinatly places for XC's

I was too busy with my on roaders at the last bash to explore the options for crawling.

19th is good for me, I will be able to give my HPI Firestorm flux a blast in the large carpark area. I was down there a few weeks ago and found a large rough grass/mud area between the pub and the carparks that might be good for some of you.

as fatal says it is only a stone throw from the penenden heath bash site, infact a 2 minute walk would get you to the woods from the car park

[difflockxc]

ok sounds good as i said in previous post i would need a lift from someone though as i cant drive at the mo

[riggerboi]

so is it defo on for the 19th? what time? ok for mini, brat, and jero?

[difflockxc]

[difflockxc]

[bonnerworld]

Hi guys

At the last bash some of you were using piping as drift tyres, where and what type did you get? I have just been to a B&Q warehouse and couldn't find the right size. Its going to be used on a TL01 Escort WRC with the standard wheels and tyres which I am assuming are the same size as the ones you used (approx 64mm inc tyre).

Cheers

Andy

[bonnerworld]

i know what you mean, but normally you dont include the tyre, the plastic pipe slides over the rim 20 basically need 2" internal diameter pipe

alternativly there are several sets of proper drift tyres on ebay from £8 a set

hi all sorry its short notice just to let u guys know there is going to be a ukrcrc get together in charing this sat at around 12.00 all crawlers and scalers welcome meeteing at the old happy eater car park at the botom of charing hill on the A20 as said around 12.00 then of to an old sand quary for a play (sorry but no nitros as we want to keep the noise down)

[arh21]

For my future reference is this old sand quarry easily accessible, at so point it might be a good area to take my Traxxas Slash.

Cheers

Andy

[difflockxc]

hi andy yeah i,ve been taking my rc stuff there for years the quary is aclualy in charing heath and would be an ideal playground for a slash or any other off road racer if you want more details of how to find it drop me an email at gbhowland@hotmail.com

Anyone fancy a meet this weekend? Sunday or Monday morning are good for me.........

yeah up for it any day where and what you bringing?

[BellysGonnaGetchya!]

Afraid i wont be able to make this weekend, going up to see buzz and play in the Discovery at the proper off road site at wildtracks (just round the corner from the EB site) then gonna hit a few bootfairs in the am sunday morning then spend the rest of the weekend at my parents place.

Hope you have fun regardless, Weather is meant to be poo fri/sat dunno about the rest of the BH weekend.

Does anyone have any problems with future KB's being held on Saturdays instead of the usual sundays??? I know a couple of people cant make sundays and mine may be getting more tied up in the future with off roading and green laning events.....

The bash site that Graham. I and a couple of the UKRCRC went to the other day seems a pretty good venue for buggies, crawlers, xc's, large scales, pretty much everything, Graham is looking into who owns the land now so maybe we can get permission to run fuel driven stuff in the future, but for now lets keep it to lecky stuff so as not to annoy anyone or draw attention to ourselves.

As its quite out of the way and the only people who go there are locals walking their dogs and a few motorbikes from time to time it may well be the ideal place to set up a permanent xc/crawler course, The only downside is that is very sandy being an old sand quarry, Great for the faster buggies and trucks but im thinking a crawler course may be trashed each and every time we go play, resulting in having to set out a new course each bash date, Not a huge prob I know as I used to have to turn up a hour early and rebuild the xc course at Penenden Heath each bash. It may also be fun not to use the exact same track/course each and every time.....

There is a huge wide open and very flat area if anyone would want to make an impromptue buggy/rally track, a nice big bank in the middle of the site for some huge and impressive jumps, and for the more adventerous is a great walk around the perimiter of the quarry with crawlers, xc's or trials making and discovering new routes as you walk around....

Let me know what you all think of the idea and Il try and get some piccies sorted asap for you all to see..

Cheers.....Chris
