Its a mobius maxi 2.7k, fairly old now but works fine. Its velcro'd underneath the cap. If you do get one, try for the lowest FOV as possible, higher FOV gives more fisheye and harder to follow the car.
It doesnt matter as long as you have fun. If you like the older buggies theres a good amount of vintage/rear motor buggies going around, usually a good 2 heats worth plus its fairly relaxed racing.
Been many years since I did any racing back in the day of SWORD's when there must have been at least 10 clubs in it. What the idea of 3 finals ? you must have been lucky with the weather too as I went past that area about 2.30 and the heaven opened !
Its the best 2 results of the 3 finals to count so I assume it allows for a bad final. Its only at regional or national level it tends to happen and only the A finalists. Some clubs do it too but would usually be for all finals if they do. We didnt escape the weather, it hammered it down about 12pm and we spent a good hour brushing and sucking up the tens of litres of water from the track, just small showers after that but track remained pretty waterlogged and very greasy.
Good race Gav. Did an actual human being think this was a good amount of hairpins to have on a track this small? lol Straight, hairpin, straight, hairpin.... Yawn....
Been the same layout since the regionals in like Aug and it'll be the same until the next one :) Its deffo not the most enjoyable layout. Gone are the days of a new layout for every meeting.
Crappy race engines!!!! Either tweeked for HP beyond limitations OR crappy mechanics NOT DOING QUALITY WORK!!!!! I’ve had over 300 track days and ride at redline rpm on my farm roads with tuned stock engines AND BLOWN MOTORS PISSING OIL HAS NEVER HAPPENED!!!!! Beware of who touches yor bikes!! Best of luck!!!! to all Cheers to all good people
I'm a TT marshal. When even a lower speed crash happens under your nose the energy carried by the bike and rider seems immense. God only knows whst this one was like to witness.
Agreed. I have been at Brands Hatch when a bike ran through a gravel trap, and somersaulted into the catch fence, showering us spectators with gravel. And that was just at a club meeting, so maybe 80 or 90 mph. That was quite enough for me......
@@dynamight1124 brave or stupid , gave Adam space lol . And I’d pulled off the inside line off that jump in qually just was like half a foot too left on this one there was no way round you and you rarely make mistakes didn’t know how to get past you with out a 1st class postage stamp
The 4WD wasn't great, it was slapping around quite a bit, I think I need to get a better oil combo to be honest, the 2WD felt lovely over the bumps. I saw your final, car looked fast! Big difference to the XB4?
Its mostly a UK thing, back in the 80's, 90's and early 2000's most cars were sold with a stick transmitter so if you were a kid and raced then thats what you started with. Anyone younger than like 25-30 probably races with a wheel in the UK. The rest of Europe tends to me wheel at any age. Any newcomers are pointed towards wheel as they are quite a bit cheaper and has more variety than stick.
