So who all has Mini's? - Brian_BigSquidRC - 04-19-2005

Ok, I have really been enjoying my Mini's lately. I love racing them over at Leisure Hours, but I spend 50% of my time trying not to be used as a speed bump! I talked a few people, and they said they would run a 'mini' class if there was enough people. There HAS to be enough people, I see 2 or 3 of them there on a saturday, just looking pretty because they don't want to go out there.

I have a Mini Quake, and a 18T, Neil has a 18T, and another friend of ours just got one. That's 3 I could get to show up. How many people here have em? I vote we get a race going! Heck I'd settle for an 'unlimited' class even since everyone has a modified somthing... 1/18th scale, anything goes. Or maybe seperate the brushless from the brushed...

Any thoughts?
The only problem I see is EVERYONE is probably running stock receivers on AM and we'd only have 6 frequency's to use.

PS: I just posted some info and pictures of a Mini Quake truck that was at the 1/18th scale nationals recently. What a ride!

I can't believe you guys haven't hoped on the mini craze yet. They are pretty fun, VERY low maintenance, and a good time bashing. I'll make sure to bring them out to the BBQ! My 18T will beat ANY car you guys got. (clocked it at 61 last week :eek: ) and yes it's uncontrollable! Hehe

There are tons of mini's in our club, some with brushless. Heck there was a guy in our club that had a lehner brushless with lipos in his mini-t when they first came out (1 1/2 years ago?)

Almost everyone in the club has a mini except me Sad

Sweet!

I think some time this summer I'm going to try and do a 'mini' bash. No big cars to run them over or anything.. just 1/18th scales! Maybe even take over Leisure Hours one day!



Mr Tune.. I consider a mini chopper as 'hard as heck to fly!' Smile What kind to ya got?

It's in the my sig. And yes, it's SOOO hard to fly. I can't even get it 3 inches off the ground before I crash it.
