Me, Me Me!!
10am start, 12pm finish 2 qualifiers and two finals (Wednesday night style)
£5 adults & under 16's free :-) for this meeting..
Idea is to have a short "family friendly" meeting so you all have the afternoon to spend with the rest of the family!
Lets see how we all get on actually racing these beasts!

I will be down for this, looking forward to it. I will be down at about 9 ish to give the TC a little go as well, it's sitting on the shelf looking lonely and un used. Will the club transponders be available to use as well??? Don't fancy ripping my ones out of the TC or the supastox?

Tried out our two new jumps thanks to Geoff :-) Wow they are great!
Matt, club transponders will be available, but remember folks we don't have an unlimited supply so if you can fit your own, please do..
I'll be down around 9:30 to get race control open and get the 1st heat to the line as close to 10am as possible :-)
Really looking forward to tomorrow, off now to charge some batteries :-)

Awesome fun today. so looking forward to seeing everyone next time now. trucks were great fun, some maybe too quick for their own good but just fantastic to see. I reckon a mixture of TC and Super Trucks for a full days racing in the summer is just about perfect.

Sean and I really enjoyed it. I think our trucks are a bit too fast, Sean used full throttle a lot (and paid for it a lot). I only used it on the last corner of the last lap in the 2nd final.
Great fun though. Wish I knew how to make the thing stay level when airborne.

OK for all you Helion Volition runners out there. Having complained at the lack of speed of my truck compared to some others I have been advised to check the throttle end point on my transmitter as in some cases the esc does not reset properly. Being the idiot that I am I had not thought to do this but having done this now in the shed the power has increased tremendously. Have set throttle EPA to 150% and this truck is rocking! Looking forward to being a bit more competitive next time but thought you all should know to check this if you feel your Volition is a little tardy in the speed department.

Good news Ian, thanks for the information.. Although I fear in my case the end point adjustment may not work with the motor that died on Sunday :-( Anyway for those who wants the full final results, please find them attached.
