Anyone in Sooke?

Wondering if there is anyone out here that goes out on weekends. I just about have my buggy finished and some people to bash with would be more fun.

The current COR site is safe for Mac owners. They are redoing and moving the site, it should be up in a week or so.

LMAO off to a good start.  Racing doesn't matter that much. I am more of looking for people interested in the hobby that want to do a few runs sometime.

[Muddy Mudskipper]

Hell I'd give on road a try if I could pick up a cheap car and had someone to burn around with.

Not sure if it's as cheap as your were thinking but I got a good xray touring car for sale.. No electronics tho.. 150$ or I can thro in some brushed motor electronics if you want

[Muddy Mudskipper]

oh god another project!  haha I will definitely think about it though.

What kind of buggy do you have?
You'll find that most the people on this site are into racing more than bashing around. We all started bashing, found that boring so we have formed a club for racing.
Here is a good site for Off-road racing as well as a good hobby shop that the majority of our club members support. Their racing schedule is posted on another thread here- NRC Off-Road Racing 2012.

Tamiya DF-03. I have never even seen a track let alone tried to race one.

[Muddy Mudskipper]

Looked at that. where are they located? Nanaimo? Store name? Sorry new to the island and a google search didn't help.

Good day!

In never saw a track untill 3 years ago, I drove by and saw the tents and sign in Colwood. I drove in and checked it out, talked to several peaple there and found that there was a car for sale. I came back the next weekend and bought my first RC race car and started racing that day. This year will be my 4th year for outdoor racing. The club and members are more than willing to help a new racer out and it is way better than bashing and it is a lot of fun.

Cool when and where? I'll check it out.

Hey Muddie, check out some of the other threads on here, they tell you where, when and what IROCC races. The main page will give you all the details you need to know.
The Off-Road track and shop are in Nanaimo, that website should give you all the info you need about what they do. Here is their website- http://notoriousrc.com/

if you want a cheap car, my ntc3 is pretty cheap. all it needs is radio gear. got two servos? if not, i have one spare one that isn't that frack hot, but id chuck it in. $150 and all you would need is fuel and drop your radio gear in.
nitro would be tough as a first class, but would train your throttle finger preeeettty quick.
