ITS ALL OVER!!! We have endured the summer heat, and the best team has prevailed!!

A BIG CHEER TO TEAM JJ DUBSHOP!!!!

I have put all the driver points and team points down for you to reflect on. Bear in mind that some of the non-regular points are a bit skewed, there were some stand-in drivers during the season.

Congratulations to the top three drivers
1st - Eathan
2nd - Ian
3rd - Andy

And a really good effort to everyone.

I will make a few personal commendations to Lance for most improved driver (even without his 'special' motor laughing

) and to Jon & Bong for consistancy throughout the event. Both managed to get in the points a few times, and were unlucky not to qualify for some of the finals but both of them contributed points that boosted their teams chances of competing. Unfortunatelyfor some teams, work intefered with participation, and Dan, Duane and most notably Jay were not able to attend, but when they were there, were in the running. Also, Eric would have been a thorn in our sides had he not been transferred to Thailand, but I am pretty sure he is getting his RC fix there....

Now what are we going to do each week????

ISAAC HUNT RACING - 230

now where's the party?

I had a blast doing it guys.....I told Graham this afternoon that he and Jamie's absence cost the IH racing team victory...he was GUTTED to say the least....

Jon, those motors look ok, but since a lot of people invested in the Sport Tuned, I think we should try those first. Since there is no planned racing for next weekend, a test session with ST motors is probably needed. If I come down, I will bring the timing equipment and we can check some average times with the ST's. The average lap time on the track is about 27 seconds, with a quick lap being a touch over 24 seconds. So it will be interesting to see how much the ST motor can take off that time. The mini circuit is a good blend of straights and turns. So get the mini's armed with ST's.

For a winter season, maybe 5 weeks of individual driving with the points from the top 3 races being counted. And a final based on that. We could do 2 or 3 classes Mini, GT Stock and a free-for-all class.
Maybe starting at 3pm until 6pm every week....let see what happens.

the Team Bosses should answer that, . . . . i'm just a mechanic. . very happy

MAYHEM

right Andy...!

we should start another mayhem only this time its individual and not group smile

but may i suggest every other week? to give way to drifting as most of us driving minis are into drifting as well and since winter is coming, more drifters are coming out.

Ian, yep I think the SSS was too long, but given it was summer, I think it was ok....

I was thinking about a 5-6 week series, with only the top 3 races counting for each driver so you can come every other week, and still be competitive. Maybe because it is getting dark earlier, but we can start earlier, so we could have 2 heats of GT and 2 heats of mini (or whatever) every weekend...over the 6 weeks, take the average of the top 3 race times...

That way even if you dont race every week, you just need 3 weeks of times :-)

sounds good to me andy... we just need to start earlier than usual so we can have more fun!

so even if i race every other week, as long as i get good points.. im in right? i think i can manage that! hehehehe

Can we also have a A and a B final? Some of you guys are far faster than some of us!

Q: Has anyone tried putting a 21T pinion in an M-chassis and does it actually fit?

I've toppled over this in Tamiya USA's website:

Check the pinion's nT..
