Booking in is best though, there is a maximum amount of drivers we can cater for and if we are full booked we might not be able to squeeze you in on the day
There is no cut off for booking in though although the sooner the better so we can plan the event.

Back by popular demand !
Freeprawn Racing would like to invite you to our 2nd Supercup race weekend to be held at Nene Vally Raceway on the 27th and 28th July.
The Supercup is aimed at drivers of all abilities and backgrounds to come and have a go around Nene Valley Raceways excellent track and will build upon the success of the 2012 event. The track is one of the best in the country and last year held the Largescale Off Road EFRA Championship, which basically was the Olympics of toy car racing!!
Timing facilities will be available using either your own personal transponder or by using one of the clubs handout transponders.
The Supercup will be held over 2 days. On the Saturday there will be a morning and afternoon session of practice followed by a shin dig in the evening in the infamous Nene Valley Raceway 'Party Tent'. On the Sunday there will be a brief practice session in the morning followed by the main event, the Freeprawn Racing Supercup. You are more than welcome to attend either or both days. Race fees are
A side pipe might look kinda scale isn.
The FTX side pipe is cheap and good for the money to be fair.
If you want something that is rear exiting, I'd go for the samba for the baja. You would need to bodge your centre shock tower to fit a little but would be a good solution.
If you want to make stacks then just use a standard box exhaust and fabricate some stacks from some alloy tube and silicon joiner.

Hiya,
We sell bags of nuts, screws, Grub screws, E clips etc. No mixed bags as such, though unfortunately.

Really good with a good long handle. There is also a spark plug spanner on the other end.
Saying that though a socket and a T bar is probably just as good ;o)

Hiya,
Hitec 5755's have been discontinued in the UK and replaced by the 5765. There are still stocks of 5755's kicking about though (mainly in the USA).
They are the same apart from the 5765 is the high voltage version which can be directly powered from lipo's.
Even if you don't plan on powering your servos of lipos still go for the 5765's as due to the FET's being upgraded to handle the increased voltage and current they are less likely to burn out if you stall them when using a 6v NiMh receiver pack
At the end of the day though either are a significant upgrade for the Blackout Unless you have a spare
Hiya,
