The lensman Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 I have many years experience in r/c racing, both 1/10th and 1/8th off-road buggies, but since heart issues 3 years ago I've stopped driving (full size that is!) so getting to tracks is a real issue, SO I have gone in for Crawlers instead..! Racing is great fun, but on your own? NAH. So setting myself some challenges in my local park with a couple of cheap FTC models (Kanyon & Ravine) keeps me motivated. However it would be great to find other people local to me here in Liverpool, so if anyone wants to get in touch just let me know! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lensman Posted June 25, 2021 Author Share Posted June 25, 2021 Thanks everyone! Shows I've got the "Bug" as I have just today received another FTX model, this time a Kanyon. From what I have read it has a good reputation - except the stupid metal front/rear steel plates mounted on only two points DUH. So I have just been and picked-up a length of 15mm L section aluminium to make the necessary mod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
