View Full Version : 1st Annual BRP Figure 8 Race
TangTester 03-23-2008, 04:16 AM Hey Guys
Here is the video from the our first Figure 8 race. This was one of the most fun r/c races I have ever raced in.
As you will see these cars are pretty durable. The most damage over the entire day was a couple of bent axles and a couple of broken body mounts. I don't think any other car would hold up to the hits that they took.

Micro_Racer 03-23-2008, 06:06 PM NICE -- I like the music!
BudBartos 03-23-2008, 06:16 PM Those videos were GREAT :lol::eek::eek::woohoo: It sure seemed like We were crashing more than that!!!!!!!
BRP 1/18th scale cars taked a lickin and keep on tickin :thumbsup:
I ran the BRP rent a racer it is the purple truck that hit the pole several times. ( I coudn't see since I was laughing sooooo much) The truck ran 30 min all that broke was a rear body mount after a marshal jumped to miss a car and landed right on mine WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BudBartos 03-24-2008, 03:55 PM Fun !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tim Mc 03-24-2008, 04:03 PM I don't think any other 1/18 mfg can honestly say that their car would hold up to that kind of abuse over and over, again and again for ten minutes!
BudBartos 03-25-2008, 11:29 AM Maybe We should post this on a Scalpel site :p :rolleyes:
aeracer 03-25-2008, 12:10 PM That figure 8 race was awesome.
I could have told you how tough the BRP car was ten years ago. Both of my boys learned how to drive with a BRP car. I owned one of the first cars that Bud produced with no suspension. I think the only hop-up for it at that time was the ball differential!
I remember when the suspension upgrade first hit the shelves- man what a difference!
Here's to the history of the BRP, as always, a top notch product. Others may have the glitz, but we have the FUN- Simply Fun!

Mike Clark 03-26-2008, 11:07 AM LOL:freak::freak:
Boy howdy was that video worth the wait! Did anybody think to issue the turn marshalls safety equipment, like a catchers mit, facemask or leggings?
The BRP cars were flying on the track & OFF!
There were several crashes that I was sure would end the day for several racers but no and they raced on!:woohoo::woohoo:
Who won?
BudBartos 03-26-2008, 12:04 PM Tangtester WON Fig 8. Howard K won roadoval He was leading in the fig 8 but dumped ran same pack in both back to back so now We know they will run 20 min on a charge in HEAVY race conditions :)I crashed alot could not see with the tears in my eyes :cry: from laughing :lol:
