read,update, then delete this, cheers

Michael,

could you please add the other classes to this page?
some sort of Australian Sierra thing?

i for one, don't want to go too far down the route of countless cars that all perform in a very similar pysical manner, when the software can be modified to make individual cars perform in very different ways.

sorry if that is boring, that's just the way i feel.

Gary

PS Michael is the best guy I have ever met

 

[Michael363672]

The V8's were a one off to keep the host happy

As far as I know the only other car to add is the SCX Nascars which you now have ps motor upgrade comming for you too and it's FREE

Your pit crew will take care of it all for you

Nothing else to buy so you are all sorted

We aim to keep it Simple and your views are listened to

 

[LeeH]

Really got to get down and race in the NASCAR races soon and hopefully every event in the new season

For the scx NASCAR class do you guys fit the digital chip?

 

[Michael363672]

Hi Lee

It is SCX NASCars this thursday

I have a spare car if you want it to race

I have modded them to be hardwired with a Slot.it guide aswell rather than the scx one

As that seems to loose connection with the track to much for digital

I will be posting a how to mod guide soon

Michael

 

[LeeH]

I'm unfortunately working this Thursday but got race schedule off Lee so hopefully be down soon for either that of scaley NASCAR

Can you guys chip my scx cars when come along?

 

[Michael363672]

We sure can

It is pretty easy to do

Do you want to run it else where or just for digital ?

 

[LeeH]

I will be buying myself a few scx NASCARs in coming weeks and will have 2 or 3 just for digital races at the raceway.

 

[Michael363672]

Any Idear what ones you are after as I have a few that you could buy,

As we carry a few bits if anyone needs things

I think I have about 7 different ones if you are interested

 

[LeeH]

PM me the liveries and maybe some pics mate and let me know prices.

Thanks

 

[erikthecat]

TONY KART anyone?

[LeeH]

Those karts look mega!!!!

 

[GeorgeM]

yes please !

 

[Michael363672]

Not sure if they still do them though

If not it makes it a difficult class to set up

If they do still do them, the get one Gary and we can test it out

 

[MPJBud]

They seem as rare as fish feathers

 

[Michael363672]

And that Martin is exactly what we want to avoid.

Adding cars that are cheap as they are old stock so then later down the line you can only get them for silly money
or when bits break you can't get them etc etc etc ......

Been down that road elsewhere

alternative motors that are ment to be the same but then you ones are no good anymore

 

[lee thorndike]

I see what you all mean now.
If we do at some point add more classes we need something completely different.
Unfortunately michael is right.
The go carts will be hard to get as many as we need and they will need many parts as they are ninco after all.
We also spoke about legend racers and maybe mini racing.
maybe even banger racing.

 

[Michael363672]

Every class is banger racing

I would say an open wheel class either A1's or the Start F1 cars

If we get more organized we can run 2 classes a night

 

[Jango]

Something open-wheeled would probably be the best option for 'something different'.

I like the idea of Minis. What sort of cars would 'Legend Racers' include?

Other than these, the alternatives are all pretty similar to what's already on the race schedule. Touring Cars, anyone?

Cheers
Steve

You won't once you have driven them non mag

As they roll over better than a ball does

I have 2 F1 START car chipped and siliconed up will bring them next week for everyone to have a go with and see what they think

I also have 1 A1 car with the same tyres as we run on the nascars so will bring that as well

I think the open wheelers would also go good on the GT Track

So keep the NASCARS for the Oval only
