RACE DIRECTOR -- BECCI STAZIKER

TROPHIES PRESENTED BY BECCI STAZIKER

So far this season, the best lap time in the Sprint cars was held by Brian Short and was the only lap under 6 seconds, 5.945 seconds to be precise.

This time was beaten yesterday 30th May 2010 by Wayne (fast but unlucky) Mokes with a stunning time of 5.935 seconds.
 
This years quickest lap in the TopStox is 6.366 seconds recorded on the 9th May 2010 by someone called Richard Lower.

 

 

Do you have a 1/5th Touring Car (2 or 4WD it doesn't matter) or a 1/6th scale Racing Truck and nowhere to race?

Why not bring it along and try our Oval track for size. A bit different to Circuit racing but it sure is fun. Why not come along to our next meeting and have a look?

FAIL SAFE SYSTEM

1. Cars should have an electronic and mechanical failsafe device that must return the throttle to neutral when activated. I.e. Through loss of battery power and/or loss of radio signal

Please note:- The electronic failsafe on your handset will only work (If set up) only if your car goes out of range of the handset or loses radio contact with handset for some reason.

If for any reason the receiver loses power (broken battery or battery wire etc.) and the throttle is open, the handset failsafe will not have any effect, but then a mechanical failsafe will work and will therefore stop the car.

Example of a mechanical fail safe on a Sprintcar.

Example of a mechanical fail safe on a TopStox

 In the event of a loss of battery power to the receiver, then this spring will return throttle to neutral. The one in the picture is from a ball pen. (Too strong a spring and servo may struggle to open throttle, too weak and it may not return throttle to neutral)

On a Sprintcar or even a straight forward Marder, a spring fixed to throttle lever on carb and attached with a small cable tie to rear bulkhead works perfectly too.
