This started to become really big in the UK at one point. Its great as not that much space is needed, and can easily be done indoors. Its a shame my old club never got involved with it as it looks quite a lot of fun.

Would love to do something like this over here. Would be good to do indoors when its too hot in the summer months.

The kits are very basic but very cheap that includes the bodies too.

Some of the clubs even do the caravan racing too, which looks pretty mental

Hahaha...

I've always wanted a Mardave V12. Kinda' pointless though, without an entire army of them, in one small oval track...

Have you got one?

Nope, i nearly picked one up when i was first racing. I think im going to order one as they have just re-released the kit.

I know it would be pointless if no one else has one, but there are so many cool bodies available for it.

dan,

you need to come see the minis in action at area 2(the day you came down there was hardly anyone around) it looks very similar, that is carnage wise on the first few laps!! hahaha

pretty cool though, demolition derby crossed with oval racing!

Its a shame i cant make it for Saturdays. I think im definitely going to order a M-05 next week, but im still not sure if its worth buying the pro

generally the guys reckon its better to get a normal m-05 and then get some bearings and oil dampers for it and youre set

Its seems to work out cheaper that way, as you dont get a body with the pro. Plus the shocks that come with the pro look plastic too.

I guess a M-05 is next on my list

....or go old school and get an M-03

RCmart have some decent deals on in the combo section, the Swift is the way to go, it has wheel bearings alread, just nee some 1150's and some 850 bearings and you are good to go...

.....but you will then spend money on shocks, pinions, wheels, tires, universal joints, motors, hubs .......want me to carry on??

nice bashing cars lol is this for racing or for demolition derby? the last running car wins? lol

yup you better get a mini kit to get the mayhem experience

btw THIS topic might help you decide on which chassis to get man.

come down this saturday for a good session, i know i'll be there........witha new shell!!!!! slider wants big crash!!!!!!
