Team Durango DEX410 oOple Review

September 17, 2009 · Posted in News, Off Road, Reviews · by simon · 1 Comment 

Team Durango DEX410I’m constantly amazed how good Jimmy’s radio control car reviews on oOple are. Today he published a massive review of the Team Durango DEX410.

This 4wd off-road 1/10th electric buggy looks terrific.  It’s a really interesting design, check out that quick release layshaft, and all those rubber gaiters.

The chassis is an alloy plate, all very 8th buggy. Use of light LiPo and motors that provide too much power means cars can be made heavier. These are then more stable, and the first place to start with this extra weight is the chassis. Brilliant!

The car did well at the recent Euros, and UK support should be good with Adam Skelding as distributor.

I really like my Tamiya DB01, but I doubt it’s really a top-end competition machine. I have a feeling that the Durango might be my next 4wd car, I hope they become popular and wish Gerd Strenge of Team Durango all the best with his new car.

SHMCC 1990s Off-Road Track

July 24, 2009 · Posted in News, Off Road, Racing · by simon · 1 Comment 
YouTube Preview Image

Back in the 80s and 90s, off-road 1/10th buggy racing was all the rage.  At SHMCC the track was off-road then, as the above rare VHS footage shows.

In the late 90s, people wanted the cars to look more like cars, like rally cars.  So shorter shocks and wishbones started being fitted to buggies, and a rally car body shell.  These handled a whole lot worse off road, so people started racing them on car parks instead.  Thus they soon turned into touring cars.

Nowadays touring cars are arguably a bigger racing class than off-road, but many of us hanker for some off-road racing again!  Oh how nice it would be to go back ten years to have a go on that astroturf!
