We race on a Saturday night at Huntington School, York (see map).
We race
indoors, all year round during school term time. Booking in 6:00pm -
6:30pm, and racing finishes by 11:00pm. Racing is on a polished sports
hall floor, with a good mix of carpet, and jumps.
There is a small
snack bar, and a well stocked spares shop. The club currently has on
average 42 racers attending. long with two & four wheel drive
modified classes we run a two wheel drive 540 Class, for 'sealed can' 540
Johnson/Mabuchi type motors including Sport Tuned Tamiya, Traxxas Stinger
& HPI Saturn 540 motors. |
This is an ideal class with which to start, not having the expense of
a modified motor. This class is one of the best attended, and racing is
very competitive. From the 2005 & 2006 AGM: The Club
Championship has been split over two nights, the usual second Saturday of
the month will now be for 2wd Cars & the third Saturday for 4wd Cars.
(This may change to allow for holidays etc) All classes will be raced on
both nights. Brushless motors (max. can size 540) can now be used at
all our meetings (inc Championship) alongside brushed motors. At the
2006 AGM it was decided to run a Vintage Class for pre 1991 cars, these
would run with HPI Saturn motors, see calendar for
dates. |
