Time to get out those Kombi Dragsters and Remote Controls. Patch up the damage from last year and check the battery condition.
For the newbies part of the Annual Bus Stop event is toy racing.
Pull back Kombi toy drags followed by Kombi Remote Control track racing.
All are invited to participate.
If not please attend to enjoy the frivolity!
The track drag strip will be determined when we get there.
Maybe some can add a few pics of past events!!

Easy Peasy! The old white coveralls will do again.

Today, as part of getting ready for Bus Stop, I repaired the front offside control arm / ball joint on The Ghost.
Damage was sustained at Dubbo when an over exuberant minor commandeered the controls and ploughed straight into a brick wall at high speed....
Luckily the driver didn't sustain any injuries, just handed back the controls and ran away !
O/S front wheel sat at a very unnatural angle and couldn't be operated afterwards without increasing the damage
Charged the batteries and it's ready to rumble !!
(.......actually, all I had to do was re-align and tighten a screw....
)
Cheers,
Mark

No, I want to keep a clean slate……..
I might have to vet potential drivers a little closer this year
