      They should do mad laps where an xmaxx bursts onto the track puts down some inconsiderate times creating carnage.

      Good to know they sorted it out for you, I remember you asking who deals with warranty cases.

    2. BashingBrian

      BashingBrian

  9. Who deals with Savox warranty claims in the UK ??. Servo was purchased from Modelsport, it lasted 5 mins and gave up, first Savox I have ever had fail...😮

      Thank you for confirming  ‘who’ will process the claim, I have also contact CML....👍

    3. Oh How Original

      Oh How Original

      CML might be the ones actually, but in my experience, MS should send you a replacement then claim their replacement back from CML (if that is inded the correct source)

    4. QRC

      QRC

      MS have been in touch, replied to my email at 20.00hrs tonight, that’s service, informed to send back to them with a covering letter...👍

  10. Booked a day at a track for the first time ages 🥳, middle of June at

    https://www.arcraceway.uk, limited numbers only allowed though...

  11. Just ordered my fourth Tamiya kit in less than 10 days, never thought I would ever go back to them, first ever kit was ‘78, how I wish I still had that one, it’s worth a small fortune now....😆

      I've just ordered my first Kyosho - used to look at them lovingly in the model shops back in the day, but ended up with the cheaper Hornet.  Then kind of forgot about them, moved on to other scales and then out of RC totally for a few years.  Been trying to order some new Tam's too, but everyone I want is out of stock, and as most are rere's I guess thats it, unless they run another batch...

      A fellow basher has got one of these to build,

      They're a very enjoyable build by all accounts, and drop dead gorgeous too.

  12. Just purchased two more Tamiya F1’s, one still BNIB both over twenty years old, this vintage stuff is great....😆

      What you got ?? 

  13. Just secured a Tamiya Ligier JS9 Matra CS, been after one of these for decades, still has original msc etc...I had one back in ‘79 so lots of great memories, to say I am chuffed, would be an understatement....🥳🥳 

    1. bertberr

      bertberr

      Congrats dude, I was only looking at the Ligier JS9 a couple of days back in my 1979 Tamiya Guide Book, used to drool over that, the 312 Ferrari, the 935 and the Celica when I was a lad.

      Also won a pair of Tamiya Mclearn F1 cars today, won the auction, but was below the reserve price, one was still boxed and all packets sealed.....

  17. Hopeful winners picked for this afternoon and evenings racing, just need the rain to stop now....???

  18. Amazing how you get from a random thought of running nitro again, to purchasing a Kyosho Inferno MP9 and running at this track,

     

    http://www.hnmc.co.uk/

     

    Also managed to encourage another member to join me in this adventure, so Kyosho and two rc stores have done very well for Monday am, that’s two MP9s sold.

      Im with you too i miss nitro and now want to show one to the kids too. My oldest was just jumping her BL 4x4 only small tiny jumps but practice. She did better than me lol. Driving slow lining up full throttle and idel in the air to land. Being dad i sent it forwards vertical into cart wheels.
