Tony.A Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Hi Kim,i am an old Quickslot racer(Springvale and Bentleigh) andit is great that Mobile Raceways,my home track is putting a scale track and i am looking forward to racing on it as i am looking to do more scale racing as i enjoy running my plafit sports cars and mini-z Nissans around my small test track at home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axman Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 (edited) Thanks Tony for the reply. Had a great time the last time I raced at Peters catching up with the "old gang". The Quickslot guys were a team in every sense when it came to competing against the invading hordes of drivers from NSW and SA.. Brian and I had so many racers competing on a National level we used to hire a bus to take everyone interstate. Really pleased the MCN is now running the Historic class.. Might get some of the old gang back to compete again. Edited March 8, 2013 by axman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony.A Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 Hi Kim,i am definately racing at the MCN.I have already got a couple of mini-z's running and two plafit can/am/sports cars and contemplating buying some more cars to compete in some more classes to support the event.Hope to see you there.

Garry J Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) Looks OK except the bridge should be the other way around IMHO.

gref Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 we had an LMP enduro couple of years ago at MR, hope we can organise another on the new track sometime this year!

axman Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) Garry's right... Cars de-sloting on the exit will be stuck under the bridge. The first rule of track building is avoid putting corner exits or corners under a bridge - especially if its hard to marshall.

first corner crash Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 Unfortunately i will miss the event so won't get a chance to drive on it whatever the final product is. I quite like six laners sometimes being the innocent victim in a multu car pile up on an eight laner with a panicky marshall can be very expensive. Also for club nights etc they are just more practical. Good luck to all. Quote 4x national champion 6x national runner up. I come second most often but my girlfriends happy.

Garry J Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 I was thinking of visibility of that switch back corner on the other side. It's going to be hard to get that high enough to see without some serious bending. Anyway, I guess Peter has a plan and I like the layout. 30 metres seems to be a good size for scale cars.

Guest jazzbell Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Just spoke with Peter Van yesterday and the new track that was NC Routed is now at MB Raceway. Yesterday was clean up and move day for them to make way for the new track. Peter has informed me the new track should be up and running in 2 weeks time. Gives you locals plenty of track time and time to sort any gremlins out. I'll be at the nationals and i hope plenty of others are going too. The last 2 years have been great for the model car nationals in Australia and i hope people come and support it in Melbourne in a months time. Great classes and another new track to race on in world class facilities. Make sure you watch this topic on the new track build. regards shane a team thunderbird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camber Posted May 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Track looks great, love the high speed curves in the bridge areas. Unfortunately I've just found out I have work commitments in Ballina so won't be able to make it. Hope everything goes well. - Cam Quote Hoo Roo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Tyler Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Looks OK except the bridge should be the other way around IMHO. It's a bit hard to tell (because I'm spatially challenged, and the track is upside down right now) but it looks like it HAS been built with the bridge as you suggest, Garry. It looks like a very nice design indeed. As you say, it has elements of many tracks that have been proven to work well. I am sure that the MR guys will have it absolutely perfect for the Nats. A good design, and likely to be well executed. What more could we ask? Quote 13 times world wanking champion. Not proud of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony.A Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Hi guys,the track has been assembled an pics of the progress can be seen on the Mobile Raceways Facebook page.It is awesome wirh numerous elevation changes and is going to be a challenging and rewarding track to race on.
