off road rc

mannurse

hi , any one out there with large scale- 1/4 or 1/5 scale off roaders? where do you drive them?
i bring my 1/4 scale off roader to the pheonex park or dollymount strand, great places to drive, frightens the hell out of people. would be better to race another off roader tho.

Any pics - I don't quite know what type of vehicle you are referring to

mannurse

no pics as of yet. it is a large scale off road rc buggy , like the fg marder but about 1 metre long. it has a very powerfull 32 cc two stroke engine. i'm going to put 8 inch jumbo kong wheels on it to make it like the fg monster truck. this thing is great.

ive got a traxxas revo and looking to go out with sumone as it gets boring going up and down

mannurse

if you life on the north side bring it down to dollymount strand on sunday mornings. its a great place to drive off roaders. thats when i usually head down.

Any one around the kilkenny area with a off road rc truck I own a t-maxx and still didn,t break it in yet, i,ll be doing that on saturday hopefully. My freind has a cen st2 and he is having good sport with it. Im just saying that if anyone with an off roader are around kilkenny drop us a line. Might be able to go to the local skatepark and drive it there becouse there are nice vert walls and big quater pipes.

Why should age matter ?
I race touring cars every week with guys as young as 13... :cool:
and you can add on at least 30 years to their age to come near mine..
And I still think it is great fun

Aye, I was flying pattern ships and got my A cert at 13, age doesn't have any bearing on how you can pilot a model. Anyone who wouldn't race you because you're young, should be forgotten about anyway.

tallus

Not "reliving your youth" ....RC is "extending your youth"

My thoughts exactly..:D

Well Tallus..
at 40 you can still ad a few to that to equal my age and am enjoying this hobby to the full

Cmar-Ireland

Seems to be a good bit of interest in this thread. So how about we organise a meet somewhere? Looks like there would be a good few up for it!!!

The back end needs to be re-assembled. I just dont have the time nor the interest...:D

mugenextreme

Ok lads, someone has got to put their foot down. Are we gonna have a get together/bashing session? My JATO needs some buddies. I'm on the North side of Dublion so I an access most places. Any one up for it???? Ideas for dates/times and places need to be offered up

I really think we should get a meet organised, you could count me in with my maxx and my friend with his savage... I think the bmx track in marlay park is the best bet, have attached pics of it from when I was out on saturday... Am on the northside aswell, about 5mins from the track in St. Annes..
