Nick Gilbert has goined the CometRC team to race the Team Magic G4RS in the 2010 season. Nick had this to say on his new ride and his switch from 1:8 buggy racing…

“I have been racing 1:8 Nitro Buggies for ages, after many years of dirt, dust and travelling all over the UK and abroad, I started to get bored with the genre. In an off the cuff conversation with a friend, we decided to buy a 1:10 gas car and have a go…”

“Once I’d had a taste of the speed and close racing, I was hooked. I spent a few days practising and getting to know the setups and realised how much fun this class of racing could be. I decided to enter a race and see how I fared against the competition. To my surprise I wasn’t far off the pace.

I entered some more races and started to get a real feel for 1:10 cars. This is when I got a phone call from Mete at CometRC Racing…I was being offered a sponsored drive. Having just spent a small fortune on a car from another manufacturer…”

“ At first I hesitated in accepting Mete’s offer. After a bit of head scratching and money juggling, I decided to go for it. Oh boy, am I glad I did, straight out of the box the G4RS had more grip and was so planted, I new I had made the right the decision! I’m looking forward to spending 2010 behind the wheel of the G4RS.”
