These events are fantastic!

Yes I agree

Make no mistake a lot goes into creating this kind of content but oh its so worth it. These events are always fun

2 days of vintage awesomeness squeezed into one video. I still remember you wheeling cars around with us years ago.

Its great to get this kind of feedback. Thank you

The vintage rc racing scene here is strong

Thank you D Man.

Its great to have feedback like this coming through. Thank you

Thank you and yes it sure was a lot of fun. Even better that I had my two boys in on this one.

Im sure there will be some cars and manufacturers people are unaware of so thought to help people out. Thank you for watching

Thank you Glenn. What an awesome weekend it was and to watch my two boys wheel their cars around so well was a real treat! So many great cars and drivers and the atmosphere was perfect

Hi ya David. We hold a 2 day vintage Festival each year on the western side of Sydney. Imagine 2 days of amazing vintage fun and thats what we are spoilt with

Ha Ha, that was me calling out to my 2 sons on the stand. Thank you. It was an awesome weekend and everyone who attended had a blast. Learning to film and edit has been a challenge but when I am able to post up this kind of content it's very worth it.

@@Bormac073 It was a glorious edit and some amazing cars! Thanks for sharing 🙌🏻👍🏻

Its a killer meeting Keith. Everybody really gets into it and my boys had a great time racing.

@@Bormac073 sounded like it on the video. They were driving all out and you are yelling, “it’s only qualifying, it’s only qualifying.”

@@rcicons4915 ha Ha. Yes the kids were full tilt with the red mist. They all wanted to win in the first lap 😆

Just twice?😉

@@mad-beerc3818 yeah there's a lot to see in this one. 2 days of vintage fun all wrapped into one video

It's always great when people are enjoying the videos I put together. Thank you John

There is something for everyone in this video

Its on every year and now Keilor in VIC is holding the vintage bash end of October

Thank you Wade. We have been very fortunate to have been doing vintage meeting since around 2006. They just keep getting bigger and better. We are 6 weeks from the Victorian 'VINTAGE BASH' so there will be another 2 day event coming not to far away

Thank you M-B. These events are sensory overlaod. This year I set up my 2 boys to race and combined we had 6 classes each day to race in. To say I had my hands full was an understatement. Lord knows how I managed to film anything at all but it was well worth the effort

@@Bormac073 haha full on by the sound of it! Brilliant event! Seeing the Fox's and Boomerangs really took me back to the golden era and my racing days when it was all about the fun and no real serous stuff! Loved watching this vid thanks again actually l think l am going to watch it again 😉👍

It was!

Glad to have been able to share with friends

​@TRUE VINTAGE RC The Lunchbox, Grasshopper, Bommerang and Schumacher were my childhood lol this was great!

Thanks Mick. These meetings are really something else. Everyone is happy and welcoming. We need to see you at the Keilor Bash next month.

@@Bormac073 if you guys ever come to Cornwall in the UK look me up haha!😉 Man l would of loved to of been part of this event! I agree also completely that vintage/rere rc racing/meets beats modern race event hands down for fun!👊

@@mad-beerc3818 we had Dean Evans fly over from New Zealand for this event

@@Bormac073 Well worth the ticket👊🤩 Awesome event and thanks Jason for taking the time to film, edit etc for us. The hobby is really doing well at the moment! Not golden era peaks of course but definitely still really thriving! rere cars from tamiya, Kyosho, Schumacher etc have helped a lot to fuel the fire and to think l was so sceptical about rere kits to start with lol! But nothing but a good thing for sure without a doubt! Clubs on the net have helped massively over the years too and now KZfaq to build on this even more and may it long continue! Amazing to think the kids with say a TD4 or TD2 will probably be doing as we are in 30/40 years time! Tamiya and co need to keep making new designs cars now though for the next 40 plus group of old farts to hunt out in the future haha! Don't ya just love this hobby!! Cheers James.

My sons each raced their Monster Beetles but they were a handful. Fitted with the MIP ball diffs they work well

Japanese cars are awesome

Thank you Lee. Ive been learning to edit over the past year and I've got the hang of things from a technical aspect now. Yes it's time consuming with respect to trying to develop and sort footage into a story or format which will be entertaining for the viewer.

Wow thank you!!! I have been learning some videoing and editing skills this year and hoped to do this event justice

Thanks man. It sure was a busy weekend for me but really fortunate to just be there with my kids and enjoy such a great event.

Its amazing to think how we ever raced so well back then.

Thank you Jonas

Hi ya Andy. Yes we are spoilt to have a proper off road facility so close by. The event is always a blast.

Thank you! 😊

Im a total rookie so Im sure you'll do well.

Everyone loves a VW Beetle

These events bring all kinds of collectors and racers in

RC10's are definitely a force at these events. You'd love the whole weekend here Adam for sure

The people at these events just keep lifting the bar. Truly another awesome year of our vintage festival

Thank you Pete.

We are all friends and I'd like to think we all look out for one another. Its a very social event, great atmosphere

Yes Castle Hill is around 1/2 an hour from St Ives where the 89 Ifmar was run. Not the same as it once was at least Casso is still all dirt. Its an awesome facility

Thank you Robert. It's nice to be receiving this kind of feedback and it inspires me to continue doing more

Me too 😀👌

Thanks Dave. Mate it was a great meeting and definitely plan ahead. Everyone is welcome to come be a part of the fun.

Its a walk down memory lane every time these cars come out.

@@Bormac073 I'm going to the attic and bringing down my old my 1985 gold pan rc 10

Thanks Stu! Yes mate you're right. Scotts Losi XX & XX4 cars were awesome. There were more cars there the same but I had my camera malfunction and I lost some footage. Still it was an awesome event loaded with every kind of car and driver. Thank you on your compliments in regards to my efforts with video and editing. Its taken me a while to get this far but its paying off. Its a pleasure to be rewarded with such positive feedback

It was a great event to be at.

Thank you. I gave it my best and shot as much as I possibly could. Each day we were running 6 classes so im amazed I got as much filmed as I did

Well you kinda do. Keilor and Knox

@@Bormac073 I didn't realise. We moved here from Adelaide and I didn't know about those. I'll check them out. Thanks again

@@jone7940 last weekend of October is the Vintage Bash @ Keilor. Already its looking to be a massive weekend. I'll be there the Friday through Sunday

@@Bormac073 Great timing. I'll be there on Saturday or Sunday. Looking forward to it!

There was a NOVICE class as per the title. This was the sole exception made as it was for first timers and there was no limit to vehicle type/age or even motor raced. It's just an introduction class mainly made up of children.

Great idea. I like the FX10 also

It's once a year my friend. Unsure of next years date.

Thank you! Cheers!

Thank you Scott. We do this each year

Thank you Ryo. I think I might be super human 😅

Thank you

Thank you Chris. Thank you and yes the boys drove better than I might have expected. Before the end they were driving so clean and doing consistently well. Definitely a very proud Dad moment there

It was a great event.

In Australia these events have been going across 3 different states in various forms since around 2006. They just keep getting better

Thank you Michael. The Saturday really wore me out. Ive been dealing with busted ribs for 5 weeks now so sleep has been minimal. It was still so worth the effort. The boys are a bit competitive with one another and I have promised them for years I would get them racing so that weekend was their time to have a go. I was proud of how well they were performing on track by the end and it showed in some of the video. I appreciate your offer and there will always be more meetings.

Hi Dave. The next vintage event is at Keilor last weekend of October. Look up the Bash on FB my friend

It's great to get feedback like yours MB. Thank you.

Sydney has 3 tracks however Casso is the home of vintage racing. Ive watched your videos. Do you race or just rag your cars out on the road or out in the park?

@@Bormac073 I wish I had a place to go racing I mean they're tracks around me but they're kind of far. And my physical limitations have a problem with that too so I rag them in the park.

Ok cool. Your messages almost come off as if you are questioning me/us with the content of the events we host here. It just sounds like you are almost complaining and as a quality content creator I wonder if you are only posting these comments to drag me down???

Thanks James. Yes he did ok when he filmed that particular class but I had to edit about 99% of it out just to catch a little watchable footage. I made this event more about them if anything. They had such a great time

Thanks David and yes I agree. The nostalgia continues to drive us

@@Bormac073 👍👍

HA ha Ha

Different classes. Some classes run silver can 540, some stock and other brushless of varying winds

Yes Devon has what looks to me like the Vanquish Hi-Caps on his MR4BX worlds car

Our annual vintage Festival. 2 days of pure awesomeness

@@Bormac073 Awesomeness indeed!

I haven't made the comparison myself but you could research it yourself Brad

@@Bormac073 what I saw in the video the fox had a different body on it than the Nova Fox.

I dare say you aren't aware of the full depth and breadth of the vintage r/c world. Many of us at these events were racing as early as the mid 1980's and this Fox is sporting a very popular 3rd party 'EAGLE' body from back in the day. Not everyone wants box art or box correct. Racing can be about your own individuality. Rarely would any racer back in our day rock up with 'box art'. It was about your own team colours and designs

Hello Marcus. The Kyosho Ultima pictured in the thumbnail belongs to Rob in Victoria who made the trip up to Sydney to compete in the event. Sporting a period 3rd party lexan body which still incorporates the original cage. Not to be confused with a rerelease, this car is 1980's goodness through and through.

@@Bormac073 thx for your response! I was indeed confused, because the shape of the body reminded me of a kyosho pro x and the cage and chassis of the ultima 😅

Kyosho Ultima (vintage- modified)

@@Bormac073 looks awsome Thanks mate

Hi Brad. The Hot Shot class allows any car made that utilises the Hot Shot gearbox design such as HotShot2,SuperShot,Boomerang,BigWig,SuperSabre etc.. Essentially by design a fun 'SPEC' class which has grown very successful amongst racers at our events. My advice to you is don't take everything so literal my friend.

Booooo. 😆😆😆 I dont know where you've been my friend but when comparing the Castle Hill track to most others any where on the globe, this track is about as much 'off road' as you'll find. Still true to the style of tracks we raced on here back in the 80's, at least it's not Carpet or Astro or these other super modern moto cross style/bmx tracks that are around now. Rather than knock it, how about you just come drive it or come be a part of these great events. After all, anyone can recline on their couch with a tv remote and offer criticism. Come be a part of the fun and then offer me your opinion then.
