the darrener Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 I am hoping to get into RC EP off road cars very shortly. I do own a couple but I think both well out of date now as being 20 odd years old. I am trying to learn as much as I can about the modern electrical systems before choosing a model to go for. I am registered disabled & unemployed so my funds are not huge but my grandson, who is nearly 5 fancies having a do after seeing my cars. So plenty of reading to do. Hope to make a visit to 1 or 2 local meetings over the next few weeks & see what it is all about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si Coe Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 (edited) If you are planning on visiting some race meets to see what on, Bury Metro are at Coney Green on the 24th and the 7th, but the really big meeting this month is the Chadderton indoors meeting next weekend. Postcode OL9 0LS 120 drivers, 2 shops, 5 heats and a final - its a massive event. Too massive for me, I was helping run it last year but I'm not even racing it this year - just don't have time for the 12 hour days! But for a view on the current off road scene it doesn't get better! Edited October 23, 2010 by Si Coe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
