So what's the setup ??
Well, we set out to run a championship closely along the lines of full sized Rallycross RX ..
So circuit based .. everyone knows Mendip, but we cut the track and run over the grass or astro to change the tracks every meetings.
The races are based on 3 min sprint races, mass starts, and points for finishing positions with a joker lap, just as in full sized. (mass starts are just epic !!)
The cars are based on 1/8 scale buggies, 3s lipos, and motors around the 2400kv mark .. The Hobao Hyper GT is very popular with a roller setting you back £185 from our local shop, RCOctane.
We also run a spec tyre, the GRP S4 compound, in all weather conditions. These retail at around £33 a set of 4, again from RCOctane, and last about 8 meetings... yep 8 MEETINGS !!!
Cars look like this ... and are tougher than you would ever believe !!!
... and here's some video's of what we get up to ...
