  • We popped along to the amazing ‪@HNMC‬ club for some long awaited 1/10th racing!
    Wow! What an amazing facility!
    This was the first outing for our Team Associated RC10 B7! It didn’t disappoint! Out of the box it was a real performer and with some help from some local RC gurus this car was flying!

    That looked like some really good racing, nice one guys! And that track isn't all that far from me, I've driven an LD1 and even an FTX Zorro round there. Bloody good track, great facilities, I really want to run my Kyosho Ultima there at some point!!

      @PopalongRC my early racing years was all grass and dirt tracks. The best racing memories I have. Buggies have changed so much and the tracks too. People of today do not like to get their car dirty such wet blankets. Grass tracks rule and always will with me.

    Nice work by Mark there. That Super Hotshot might just be a case of good aftermarket shocks. They can completely change the character of a car. Decent electrics would also help.

    Here in Japan, I went to Super Rajikon. The B7 is 57,600 yen or 576 AUD, and then you can get tax-free. Im just here for work. You guys should come and check out the scene and do some shopping it's amazingly cheap. That track looks amazing, as well as the buggy.

    Partly cos of you guys; I bought a Muraco, then a Radix 6, now I’m building up a Schumacher LD2 roller to try a bit of (low level) racing. But something’s gotta give.
    Selling the Muraco, with spare set of the proline wheels/pin tyres and two fresh new bodies. Bought it last year and ran it through the summer.
    Would you be interested in it for a good price as I need to recoop some costs back for my LD2 electrics and parts
