  I’ll bring them, but most of the good ones are being worked on, and the Iwavers seem to be faster out of the box.

  Templetowe was one big apple orchard back in the 1950s… and was still pretty much in the sticks in 1960s.
  
  Today its just about “inner-suburban”. 🙂

  Very true, but then betty.k and myself are a little biased given what happened to our bodies (well the ones on the cars anyway 😉
  
  I’ll be bringing some spare roughed up 1:10 shells so we can have a play with the TL01 again 🙂
  
  Still havn’t fixed the miniz chassis 🙁
  
  I’ll bring some Race tins so everyone can have a laugh too.

  Hey you’ve seen how I drive, the only kinda race I should be in is a smash em up derby :smiley2:
  
  But like last time I’m willing to share, hopefully you can find someone worthy to play with.
  
  (still gotta finish, well ok start doing that work on the aluminum chassis)
  
  Edit: BTW anyone heard a weather report?

  Ph2t’s madforce isn’t a lithium powered monster???:shock:
  
  ph2t looks like it needs more upgrades 🙂 obviously going fast enought to overtake some of the 1:10s out there isn’t enough to impress Glue
  😀
  
  (ok joking, except the bit about the madforce overtaking 1:10’s)
  
  Arggg took too long typing. ph2t beat me again 😉

  Gold? nah, have only seen them come in natural silver and TRF blue. The blue could be a ltd end run though.

  If you can’t be bothered buying new sprue, there’s a good chance you could glue it back with superglue, then reinforce with epoxy.
