Title: Live RC Boat Racing
Post by: Tombsy on January 26, 2011, 09:14:51 pm

MeTime Live is broadcasting the 2011 Orlando Winternats live. Registration is now free to watch. Today is open water and racing heats start Thursday at 8 am.
I know it's tough with the time change but it's nice to watch some racing waiting for the ice to melt.

There are some pretty fast twin riggers and gas hydro's there should be plenty of carnage. %)

Actually it's being broadcast from Florida USA it's the 30th annual IMBA Winter Nationals. Kind of interesting to see how they run big races in the States.

To be honest i dont think they are that fast.

Lots of spray from the back, but not realy looking like anything special.


but ill watch the next race and see what happens
