Thommo 1201 Posted March 17, 2014 I've been getting a few ready too! My original Astute and the F150 wide track are making a comeback. I've stuck a Sports Tuned in the Astute (just in case there is any black can racing) and I've rebuilt the F150 into total awesome. Astute 540 black can TA02T F150 (Wide Track) 540 silver can TA02 Brat (Rally Spec) Super Stock TZ Egress GT Tuned Durga (For Big Jumps) 8.5 HWing That's me for this one guys. I don't have anything new this time around but I'm very keen to see NovaFoxes and the re-re Egress. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am just hopping i will get the RC10 worlds too run ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thommo 1201 Posted March 18, 2014 Now that would be cool. The Worlds RC10 looks like it will make a big impact on vintage racing world wide. I'm looking forward to seeing that for sure...... Don't rush the build Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matman 1498 Posted March 18, 2014 Well as far as i know it's due out next month ? & if so i should have it done in time . I am in the look out for a gold pan runner , but not to many on Aus Ebay & It's only a matter of time for the worlds that i may just wait for that . + it's not a LTD run . I know dave has a rc10 runner , so he will be keen for a run or a class in that . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matman 1498 Posted March 23, 2014 Well it looks like i will have a re re Gold pan RC10 to run at the moment . But if i can get the RC10 worlds car in time i will use that . Will put in BL 13.5 in it or 17.5 ? maybe . Not to keen on the stock 540 stuff . But i could put one in , If i really need to . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm hoping that worlds RC10 gets to you on time too, I'm hanging to see it. Set the car up however you want. There certainly isn't any rules as such. I've been keeping my eye on the threads on RCTech but no talk of setting up the timer or running a vintage race meet yet either. If Dave and Adrian do want to run some vintage races, then great and we would add to the field. We can always run our own 5 or 6 lap races and just count our own laps. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

M8 i'm up for anything , I like racing . So a vintage run/race would be great . I'm hoping to get to Perthnext friday & will ask Dave if he is keen . + get some more info on the RC10 .

Hopefully I should have my Astute rebuilt by then to. Good Stuff ! I've picked my 4 runners for this meet and they are all ready to roll. Can't wait for this one, it will be a beauty for sure. I've just messaged John (Jacko Boy) so hoping that he can make it, along with Stickman. We have a new guy (Brenden) that should make it also. Plus all the guys from the Carine club, we will have a solid field. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
