    sorry to hear you're not able to book into all the races you want, victims of your own success! you're doing great things for the hobby guys keep up the good work :) Hopefully i'll have a club in the south east for you to popalong to next year - me and a few friends have recently acquired an old outdoor track. We will be re-vamping it over winter and hope to open spring/summer

      @PopalongRC Joshua Bardwell has a great video on this and how to make your own if you can't find one to buy. I made my own and it's saved my esc and fc a few times.

    Don’t miss the DT02 meeting at Broxtowe next year, great venue, great event.
    There’s still time for you to get involved with the Mardave GP series this winter, 3 more rounds to go in the New Year.
    For the best Scotch Eggs in the world you need to visit TBay Services on your way to the Carlisle round of the Iconic Cup, the best deli you will ever visit. 👍

    I vowed to never touch my TT-01 again because of the pain in the arse it is to deal with the diff housings and how you have to take off or apart. But seeing people enjoy racing the trucks and the other series centred on the 01 chassis Ive seen on this channel, Im thinking more and more about reviving mine.

      I did the opposite. Haven't touched a Tamiya anything since the late 90s
      until 2 months ago when I built a Euro truck. Now I have a tt01 sedan, tt02r, and a m05 as well, and have hit 4 races so far. :) I find the TT01 to be pretty easy to mess with compared to 1/8 Ebuggys.

    What is the best track in the South / South West of England to just turn up to and do practice runs? To get set up right and just have some fun. Not everybody wants to be under pressure with racing their cars or formally joining a club to run. Pay for a couple of hours track use and play would be great.

    Sometimes it's hard to believe you've only been going three years! Have a look at my old home town Kidderminster's RC club and my current home town's club here in Northampton. The club here in Npton meet weekly so they're pretty committed! I can't race my TT02 there, mind :D
