Hi to all model enthusiasts,


I am a complete beginner from scratch and maybe if you could answer some of my fundamental questions you might help m get started please?


1. I live in Dublin opposite the Phoenix park. Is there any clubs or racing agendas anywhere in Dublin that I could go to in order to see what the sport of either car or buggy RC racing is all about? My fear is buying a really nice model and racing it on my own!!!

2. If someone experienced has the time could they possibly post me their mobile or home number?, maybe private message it to me and let me ask them some questions?

Thank-you so much
