Tamiya Truckin - for tamiya truck enthusiasts

Well what a show this was for the UK. A first in many ways for the UK's 2nd Championships at the SWMEE show. The area was well filled by the 22m x 14m road layout! Trophies where up for grabs in many categories, with lots of trucks battling for first place! The judges really did have their work cut-out for them!

Below are some photos of this great event!

We also had a live build over the weekend. Where members spent time building a NIB MAN kindly sponsored by FusionHobbies. This was raffled over the weekend with both Joanne and James coming along from Fusionhobbies to pull the winning ticket!

The lucky winner was Mr Jeanes from Shaftsbury. Who has a new built on its way!

So for all the hard work for those that attended the show here are the winners for 2nd UK RC Truck Championships 2011!
