Re: N.S.W STATE TITLES 4 PLAFIT CARS

All very good points Stoo and building a chassis from scratch does seem like a bloody good challenge. Speaking of other meccano chassis classes does anyone know what has become of the MJK Nascar class? It was very popular at the MCN in Dapto last year. Would love to attend the NSW State Titles this ...

Re: N.S.W STATE TITLES 4 PLAFIT CARS

Scratch build? Seems kinda pointless seeing Plafit rules such as Group C dictate that you need only Plafit manufactured parts etc. You would be scratch building for nothing! The only reason I asked about the EZ RTR chassis is because it seems like a viable option for a entry class when you consider ...

Re: N.S.W STATE TITLES 4 PLAFIT CARS

Is there anything in the works to do something with Plafits new 1/32 Ez RTR chassis?
Seems at $55 and all you need to do is bolt a shell on her would be a good way for Plafit newbies like myself to enter some racing without the big price tag. :)

Re: HSC Aussie Retro Coupe & F1 Rnd 7 2010

Nice report Stoo, I had intentions of coming up Saturday night not to race as I dont have an aussie retro car but just to marshall and shoot the breeze seeing the wife was away. Unfortunately I got stuck at work so I will be making my trip up this Saturday for Rd2 of Series 3 scaley racin instead. :D

Re: MODEL CAR NATS- WHAT'S WRONG?

Maybe it might just be better to run maybe bigger ''state events'' with classes designed to accommodate what the local drivers are already racing? Things like this would eliminate interstate travel but still leave the option open for interstate racers to come compete if they are interested and have ...

Re: MODEL CAR NATS- WHAT'S WRONG?

I'm guessing a spare $10k and a corporate sponser wouldn't go astray for starters.
Does anyone own the rights to the ''Model Car Nationals"?
... and how did the concept first come about?

Re: MODEL CAR NATS- WHAT'S WRONG?

I like a few of the ideas Stewart has put forward to be honest. I do think the event should be stand alone tho and possibly at a neutral complex with custom made track/tracks for the event. (No home track advantage) I could imagine if it was in conjunction with the V8's that Tony would probably stin...

Re: MODEL CAR NATS- WHAT'S WRONG?

Howdy all, I was all for attending even tho I just returned from my honeymoon to only run the SCX Nascar class like I did at last years Nats. But as I raced at WSMCR with Magnets I only found out a few weeks prior to the event that the track was not magnabraid and couldnt convince myself to part wit...
