teamredracing Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 Welcome to Rnd 7 of the 2017 Oz Proxy at "Minto Rally Park" Hi guys . Rnd 6 of the Oz Proxy will start this weekend weather permitting . For those who dont know about my tracks , I also have a road circuit that can be moved outside my garage and covered when not in use or when doing Proxys . The main circuit (pic below) which can be run by itself and I have 2 other extensions that can be all fitted seperately or all together to create a 39 mtr layout. Surface is a polyurethane paving paint . Main Track !st Ext 2nd Ext This time round I'm using the 2nd extension ((above) which gives me around a 27mtr layout. Voltage will be 10v and will be using a Slot-It controller. Scoring is race Co-Ordinator. Mel and Gaz will be over for marshalling and camera duties as usual . Will be doing the usual clean and test tomorrow night when everything is up and running. Little bit worried about a couple of the cars from Gary's round. Anyway "LET THE FUN BEGIN" Quote Craig "You can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time”.

teamredracing Posted March 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 (edited) Hi guys . What a weekend , btween the rain and having to put 3 sheets of plastic over the road circuit and totally forgetting about a club round, this has been a hectic weekend Gaz Mel and myself. I"ll start with the only casuality from friday nights test being Dylans Mini. Unfortunatley his drive belt didnt last from Gazza's and a couple of laps in and it let go. Class of 2017 Raids Here are the results of the Raids Stage 1 Don't know what to say but My Volksy knows its way around my track . Congrats Phil , AMCC and Codes. I'm putting the other results up tomorrow and Tuesday night hopefully being home from work at a reasonable hour. Cheers Craig Edited March 6, 2017 by teamredracing Quote Craig "You can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time”.

GAS41T Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 Wow any feed back on what's up with my BMW Craig Rossko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalbfellp Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 Thanks very much to you Rally Nuts for getting this Round completed. Well done Craig on the Win. Surprised to see my Mitsubishi up there, but very pleased with our cars. Your track must be similar to Shelmore Rally track.

teamredracing Posted March 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2017 (edited) Ok , here we go with the Classics. Just to answer Gas41t ( Rosco) Mate the beemer went well but suffered like some others . Push a little harder and deslots on corners it wasnt suppose to come off. So you back off a little so to not make the same mistakes. Minto Rally Park Classics Class of 2017 Stage 1 Stage 2 Final Results The man came through for me . Thanks Mel . Dont know how you did it , so I wont ask . With that Congrats to the podiumites Peter Gunn , Gas41t , Ben M and Shadow Rusty. Due to popular belief my car didnt do as well on my track . Got to admit I did go a bit cocky and pushed it . I am also sorting out car pics as well that Gaz took and will post them up after the round results are finished being posted. Will also try and give feed back on cars as well.

kalbfellp Posted March 6, 2017 Report Share Posted March 6, 2017 Thanks Craig, at least my Pug is close, a little less Turbo boost would probably help. Well done to Keith,Ross and Ben.

Ontheflipside Posted March 6, 2017 Report Share Posted March 6, 2017 Sorry guys for some unknown reason I haven't got the pic of the Final Podium. Most probably in a hurry to give the cars to Mel. Anyway I will endeavor to get those podium cars back after Mel does his next rnd and get a pic, so watch this space. Cheers Craig In case some are wondering why I have the cars back. They are heading out west about 1hr on the weekend for a round at Nuggets Hill Quote I can't believe that I wanted to grow up Mount Salt Panorama Track Combined Road and Rally Track built near Salt Pan Creek Padstow - Sydney A quick build rally track 2017 WRP Round 11 at Mt Salt Panorama https://i128.photobu...zpss7sqiwfj.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadow_rusty Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 Well done Craig... Congrats to the podiumites... Totally confused how I can go from 2nd in the first heat to 11th in the second... But that's racing I guess...

teamredracing Posted March 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 Ok , he we go for the last of the 3 classes . Minto Rally Park Oz Proxy - WRC Class of 2017 Stage 1 Stage 2 Final Results Congrats to those on the podium with me,Curef99, Mark and Mel . Again this Citroen of mine loves my track . I used it a bit for our Slotkhana's which it did well. Still sorting out pics so shouldn't be long till I post them and haven't forgotten about revues on each class. Thanks all for allowing me to run your cars on my track. And to Cure , thanks , any reason to get the rally track out and run it, gives me a reason not to get rid of it . Cheers Craig Forgot to mention that Boss302 , your Focus kept on loosing it's front wheels through the 2nd stage. So after the stage we knotched the axle and super glued it back on . Hopefully it should stay on at Mels next round. Quote Craig "You can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time”.

Caddo Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 I've stared into the fire and won against Joe Z racing many times, and what a blast, doubt you guys could claim the same. The super moderator Gazza used to hassle Joe endlessly for being a cripple with spare time on his hands and a winners determination as the reason for Joe winning races, AND WHAT IS WRONG THERE???. We haven't missed Gazza the super moderator at any meet he has not attended since. You 3 farkers call me directly, I'll PM my number, as I'd like to discuss in person the antics that have gone on previously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ontheflipside Posted March 8, 2017 Report Share Posted March 8, 2017 I have 4 MJKs sitting out in the sun since this news broke. One is the special control tyre. No degration yet. I personally believe the tyre came into contact with some type of fluid Quote I can't believe that I wanted to grow up Mount Salt Panorama Track Combined Road and Rally Track built near Salt Pan Creek Padstow - Sydney A quick build rally track 2017 WRP Round 11 at Mt Salt Panorama https://i128.photobu...zpss7sqiwfj.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadow_rusty Posted March 8, 2017 Report Share Posted March 8, 2017 Oils like WD40 will degrade urethane... I tend to use silicone based oils as they are better on plastics, but even they can affect rubber...
