Attention Cider Bashers and anyone who wants to bash in the Bristol Area!

It's time again for a Tarmac Bash in Bristol. Our last tarmac bash at Hengrove Leisure Centre was a success, with a large, empty tarmac space perfect for touring cars, buggies and trucks, and best of all, a McDonald's restaurant just a short walk away, and should it unexpectedly pour with rain, a good bar, restaurant and even a cinema to keep us occupied.

This bash is open to anyone who can make it along to Bristol. Please vote for your preferred date(s); we will try to pick a date that suits everyone. The general concensus seems to be that Sundays are preferrable to most people so I have only included Sunday dates on the poll. I decided not to push the dates past 14th December because this takes us right up to Christmas and most people will probably be involved with other things.

Please only vote if you actually intend to come along!

Here are some videos of the last Bristol bash in RichyTAnimal's showroom:

I'm OK for any of those dates :P , but unfortunately my other half Alex is working every weekend up to Christmas :wub:

Edit - Alex thinks he can get a Sunday off late Nov ( :lol: ), so we can try beating his useless Gravel Hound to death on tarmac rather than offroad.

There is buidling work going on there next to the McDonalds, from what I seen the area we went is not quite as big as previous but should be ok.

I've still not voted. How sad is that...

Will find out when the olds are free (my mum and dad) and then vote ASAP

All the best y'all

yo guys, i'm at BAth uni, with no easy means of getting to this bash (no car), though it might be fun (depending on how much work i have). Not bothered about the date for now.

Anyone coming from bath/via bath?

Voted, the only on thats not any good is the 7th, works Winter festival :) evening event the night before! We would both be a bit slow on the Sunday. Well slower than normal for us!!!!!!!!

Got the dates!!!

Basically, the missus and I are fine for any of them, but would love my parents to come along as well and bring their toys...

Might even convince them to bring a hovercraft if I ask really nicely (although we will see......)

They can only make it on the 30th of November, so have voted accordingly

Cheers

OOh ! At last a Bash I can make !! Have voted for 30th, hope it comes off guys, haven't had a chance to run anything much recently as have been busy buiding a conservatory (think it will make a very nice body painting/decalling area as very light !!!).

will get busy makin stuff ready to run. Have fitted my home built gear diff to the scorcher ( a la TA-Mark's article) so should be interesting to run that on tarmac.

Looking forward to the meet

:D

Awesome :rolleyes: 11am for those who can make it at such an early hour, I'll try to be there from the start since I only live 15 mins away!

Posted

11am is the target then. As long as we leave here by 9:30 we might be there on time! :rolleyes:

Looks hopeful for my Parents and Rich as well.

Ive re-glued (sort of) the E-Maxx tyre, so looking forward to giving it some more stick.

Hopefully bring some smaller scale ones with me, as the RC18T is working fine now and the Kyosho Mini Inferno might just run (albeit slowly).

Anyone want to donate a small brushless set-up...? :lol: It will go to a very loving home :blink:

Just got to paint the new body and fit the new alloy rear wing for it to be completely non-original now.

Anyway, I digress (as always).

Catch y'all there

Steve, Mia and Ev

Morning all,

We will be there, probably before 10, well we are always a bit too keen (and to get some breakfast!!!) :( .

The usual suspects will be in the boot of the car. Dont think we will bring the Nitros as I dont fancy trying to tune them on the day, cold weather and sausage fingers never a good mix. Will be good to give the Bandit a dam fine bash, might even change the gearing for more speed, be interesting to see how it goes against Buggymunchers Hotshot :wub: .

Just my little bit of safety talk, we will be bringing some VERY FAST & HEAVEY MASS vehicles (not to mention the cost), as will others, Im sure. There will be a peg board for frequencies, thanks to Lemming. PLEASE use it, I dont want to see anyone get hurt by an out of control RC or anyones pride and joy get damaged, plus the paperwork would be a nightmare. We have a complete set of crystals and we are more than happy to lend anyone a band, if they need it. Sorry Mr. Clipboard moment over.

Got some work to do on the cars, Karan wants more speed out of her Blackfoot Extreme :) .

Take care everyone and see you all soon.

Matt.

Hi guys, I will definitely be there on the 30th not sure what I'll be dragging along but might try and bring the big Batmobile and the RS Turbo top force hybrid.

Possibly a hovercraft too!

Cheers.

Aha ! Bag of Badgers - a challenge for the Hotshot eh ? sounds like a laugh. I've also been playing with a Lancia Rally which is a bit quick so I'll bring that too. Don't want to get anyones hopes up too much but I'm negotiating to "borrow" a lazer speed gun (like the police use to get you !) from work so we may be able to "gun" the cars and get some top speeds - thought it might be amusing ?..... Will let you know how i get on as they are moaning about liability, costs etc at the moment.

That's decided it. I will get the Top Force sorted and ready for a run then. Should be 35mph plus........

Wonder what the E-Maxxes go like as well...

Looking forward to it!
