First Test for 2005 Season

Wahey!

Had a dry day where we could get some testing done! Had the first run with the Kyosho V-One RRR with JP Fx12-T03 egine today. The car felt good considering the state of the track. I dont think there has been much running at Tibshelf circuit over the last few weeks so the track was real green.

The car turned in well and held a nice line. Overall grip was down, but the car felt well balanced. There were also a couple of 1/8th scale cars running and these seemed all over the place!

The FX motor seemed very strong bottom to mid and top end power was good also. For more info on this engine check out www.benracing.co.uk

Can't wait for the racing season to start!

Hi,

My name is Ben Kelsall. My hobby and my job is selling and racing RC model racing cars. I thought that you might like to hear about my trials and tribulations as I race my cars in the UK's BRCA National series, European Competition and also in any club races.

Over the next few weeks I will tell you more about the cars that I race, experiences of racing (first race, funniest race and also the social stuff that goes on in the evenings in a race weeknd) and then as the season opens on the 6th of March, I will tell you how I get on in the actual racing.
