BRITISH GP Racing with the worlds best RC Car drivers

Silverstone hosts the British GP in front of massive crowds at Milton Keynes shopping centre. Indoor off road rc buggy racing does not get any better than this. An international field take to the track, but who will be on top this year. In 2wd we have Schumacher running the LD3 but how will it do up against Team associated and the new RC10 B7. You cannot discount Xray race team that have flown in from across Europe.
Truly an international field with multiple world champions in attendance. . . .
Then there is Mark and Carl a pair of club racers that are well and truly out of their depth. The standard was hard to quantify and really showed that Mark and Carl have much to learn.
As for us Mark was running the awesome Team Associated RC10 B6.4 2wd Buggy and he hope to upgrade to the B7 soon.

Meanwhile Carl was having fun jumping between Carl and embracing the experience. He was Running the Schumacher LD3 and the Willspeed TLR RF3. Both Carls performed great on the track.

Popalong needs a food show! 😂

Now your talking

Great to get the interview with Bruno before his win. I watched most of the weekend on the DDRC feed - what a fantastic few days. I must pop along 😜 next year, as MK is only a few miles from where I grew up.

[@PopalongRC]

What a professional Bruno is

[@TastierBackInThe80s]

I watched the vintage class, that was a race and half as well. This event is massive. Thanks for covering it.

[@RadiCalRaCer]

What are the popular cars in that class?

[@PopalongRC]

We have a video on just the vintage coming soon …

I managed to watch most of Saturday and most of Sunday including nearly all the finals. Needless to say this event never disappoints, always a set of difficult to call race results, and a great spectacle for the many spectators - Formula 1 is a poor second compared to this. Outstanding organisation and hard work from the Silverstone RC Model Car Club, BRCA, tech support, and Scotty Ernst (commentary and MC). Plus the quality of driving and racing etiquette from all the drivers was an example to all. Amazing how Popalong RC managed to get this YT edited and out so quickly - with all the cameras, interesting clips and interviews, top show. Great to meet Mark and thanks for the stickers - hope to be out and about with 2 race cars very soon.

[@PopalongRC]

Thanks so much Simon

[@GlenD1977]

M&S Best Ever sausage rolls are next level too, I think we need a full M&S Snack review on the channel soon as part of a video, with taste test and all 😂 Nice job on the video guys, as many have said it captures the spectacle very well. I didn't race this year, but have done a couple, and people can rarely appreciate the work and effort that goes into putting it on, not to mention how tough it is on the racers too. It might be toy car racing, but it takes its toll!

[@PopalongRC]

Cheers Glen It is an epic event Glad to be a part of it

[@Helghast73]

Great video guys 👊 Unlucky Carl in the race before the showing your scotch egg haul 😀

[@PopalongRC]

Cheers buddy

[@dub_rider]

great video guys, you seemed to have caught the vibe of the event really well and got some awesome footage of the finals. Looking forward to your interview with Scotty he's a frikkin legend!

[@PopalongRC]

Nearly 10mins of chatting

[@Buster3526]

Guys that looked absolutely awesome, shame it clashed with MICC which is where i was. But, I'll definitely be in for the GP next year. 🤞 Glad I wasn't in a car with you guys after!!! 💨💨

[@PopalongRC]

MICC look amazing too

[@jennyetherington3326]

It was lovely meeting you both and what an event, we both enjoyed it and will be back next year hopefully with a car. Great video of the event 🎥 👏

[@PopalongRC]

Cheers Thanks for the scotch eggs Great to see you both

[@mhrcracing]

I like how these offroad guys think they're so different, but they're slowly becoming onroad grip racers as they get more and more competitive. Soon they'll just be driving touring cars on a flat track

[@PopalongRC]

Your not wrong the tracks are getting faster and faster

[@Luke-en2tk]

It makes no sense that they don't just go to slicks with tyre additive like they do in the states, a control amount of sets could be used at big meetings like this also. I can see carpet specific cars being produced in the near future if the popularity of carpet racing continues to grow

[@RCRacingGuy-cp6zv]

@@Luke-en2tkthere already are carpet specific cars dude

[@Luke-en2tk]

@@RCRacingGuy-cp6zv not really they are still compromised with shocks being long and high CG, Associated tested what sounds like an inboard shock design but decided it wouldn't work well on rough tracks

[@MattSpender-ix5yb]

Great video guys… keep it up. It’s inspiring for us old guys to get back into racing!

[@PopalongRC]

Just do it 🏎️

[@allanritchie1539]

Awesome racing, love all the action from the trackside. Brilliant.😊😊😊😊😊

[@bluegroovemodelsports9650]

Great video. Very nice pitside interviews . Popalong RC for the win ❤

[@PopalongRC]

Cheers Blue

[@fencer39]

Another great video guys !......I spotted Legend Craig Drescher there at the end . Did you get an interview with him too ?

[@PopalongRC]

We had a good chat with him off camera … but if that is what you want we will see what we can do next time we Popalong to a big buggy comp

[@SonnyBurnett85]

Blimey, i;m off to M&S tomorrow to try a couple of those Scotch Eggs.

[@PopalongRC]

Not a fan of the coronation egg 🥚 not a good mix

[@whafty]

Yet another amazing video. Well done and see you in Aldershot soon 😉

[@PopalongRC]

We will Popalong

[@Robert-gy4lv]

Great video and looks like you had a great time which is what it's all about 😉

[@PopalongRC]

Captured some amazing memories

[@madvente]

Great video - thank you for all the work put into it.

[@PopalongRC]

Thanks really appreciate it

[@KM-xp1pn]

A great race event and wow the amount of normal and posh scotch eggs is amazing 🎉

[@PopalongRC]

Yeah thanks to everyone who decided to Popalong and bring us a scotch egg or two

[@bod3000]

It was so good

[@hiitzmike]

Well done for getting these out so soon! Visited for the Saturday and was great to watch though they need to improve the speaker system for Scotty!

[@PopalongRC]

Shame he was not as clear to hear from the spectators area

[@coygtrc]

Great video, must be awesome to be at an event like that. Well done. Thanks for sharing 👍🤝

[@PopalongRC]

[@Luke-en2tk]

Great video guys

[@PopalongRC]

Thanks Luke

[@Marktravis356]

Great coverage of a brilliant event, I managed to get there on Saturday but just missed the 2wd finals .

[@PopalongRC]

Shame you missed the 2wd but the trucks and vintage looked fun

[@Marktravis356]

Did not know that they were running vintage , I would have tried to book in for that , both myself and my daughter race in the vintage class. Maybe next year (Mardave cobra battle ?)

[@extec101]

if i go to UK i need to try scotch egg. just a bit affraid to get a case of ABS angry bowel syndrome. 😆

[@PopalongRC]

Hahaha they are a delight

[@bradkalman2353]

That 4wd f1 car I think is 1/8 scale. For the price of that thing you could buy a trf421.😁
