Well Delamere Forest, Cheshire actually :lol: . Myself and Duncan had a great couple of hours driving around the forest. A few people showed interest which is always fun. Lots of hills, paths and lumps and bumps. Great fun :D :D

I tell you what Richie, it's a great place to run the tanks :D :D , free parking just off the road, no dog mines that we found anyway, lot's of interest, hills, bumps, paths, the lot. You'll all have to get down here at least once this year :wink: . We're going to take extra transmitter batteries next time as the tank battery have loads left it seems the transmitter ones run out first.

Thanks Ant

Hi Ant,

Looks like you and Duncan had a good run out again, we will have to have a run down soon. I've got to get the KT finished first, then I can take the Tiger off the road, she's in need of a well earned overhaul!

Are you sure it was the computer and not your age :D :lol: :lol: sorry mate couldn't resist :twisted:

Paul.

Hi Paul,

To tell the truth it was my age. I thought my computer had frozen so I pressed the button a few times :twisted: and nothing, then I rebooted it went back on the forum and yes loads of the same message. Technology got the better of me I'm afraid :oops: .

Yes, I hope you can come down as it is perfect tank running ground :D .

Thanks Ant

Hi Ant

You need a bigger battery in it mate, at least 4300 -4500mah.

I fancy a run their mate, close for Ian aswell.

Richie :wink:

p.s as Dunc lost a wheel :shock: :shock:

Yes Richie, he had a slight problem with a couple of wheels but nothing serious. Duncs transmitter battery was 600 mah and mine are 2600mah so they'll do for spares. I'll get a new one on order.

It'll be great if you all can make it down one weekend. I'll get the bacon on order :wink:

Thanks Ant
