Euope/FR - La Montluçonnaise 2025 "D Systems" - May 8-11

Post by silvertriple »

hi everyone,
Disclaimer : I'm not part of the organization, I'm just transmitting the message

"
Hi all

We are preparing an extraordinary 2025 edition over 4 days. YES!!! 4 DAYS OF MODEL MADNESS.
May 8th to May 11th 2025

We open our tracks to vintage vehicles -500 BC to 2000 TT and track of course. And it will also be possible to come and drive with re-editions and vehicles from artisanal manufacture via 3D printers and other processes, which allow us to continue to drive our old cars or those of creators (prototypes). The goal was to go back to the first fundamentals, when we bought kits in boxes 70% finished where we always had to take out the D system box so that it could run!

We also prepare a welcome worthy of the name with the possibility of sleeping on site with your tent or motorhome. We will have a shower at your disposal. For the meal part, we will prepare accessible menus (7/8 euros) for lunch and dinner, as well as sandwiches, chips, ....
We will also have our traditional Saturday evening meal!

All this in an 80's and 90's atmosphere with surprise animations that will await you throughout this event. A registration form will be made available to you via a link, more info to come!

Hope to see some of you there!

My pancar RC 1/12 chassis was designed with this event in mind, and the files are now available on MakerWorld (free files)

https://makerworld.com/en/models/1086493

How about a small one-design formula race ?

Proposed rules:
  • ST-1 or EF-209 running gear
  • ST-1 or EF-209 differential transmission printed
  • Drawing/Material, Free Stretcher Plate - Key Indications Available on the MakerWorld Page
  • 540 Silver Can Engine, Free Sprocket
  • Free electronics, Lipo 2S (HV or not)
  • wheels choice is free (Hex 12, Center Hole of 10)
  • And most importantly: vintage Repro Endurance-type bodywork (tray or closed), welcome LEDs
  • No transponder required
The question is asked! To your printers (NB: manual in French available on Makerworld)!!
(and don't hesitate to share the progress of your projects right here!)

NB: question asked with the agreement of the organizers and the confirmation that a race will take place if there are enough of us!

It' s wide open and you don't even need a ffvrc license to attend the event. You will just have to register for the event at the club. Registrations are not opened yet, I'll update with the informations as soon as the organization is getting the registrations opened...

Looking forward to meet you and others at the event.
There is two nice tracks there. And plenty of opportunities for running time: no chrono, just fun on the track, and if we race, it is just like we did when we were kids in our neighborhood. Montluçon is great as during those events there is both GP and EP cars present, and we do alternate runs on both track avoiding mixing EP and GP at the same time. If possible, don't limit yourself to pancars :)

And the registrations to the event are now opened...
You can access the inscription document on the event's facebook page :
They also have created a website where you can find some vids and pictures of previous event http://lamontluconnaise.fr/

All of this is in french, but in the case of any doubts, don't hesitate to ask here, I'll try to help. I'm not part of the organization team neither from the club, but I'm in contact with them.

Watched all the old videos on this event...totally looking forward to this!!...will register tomorrow. Silly question...and probably already know the answer, but it's been 36years since I raced...lol! The available pit areas looks small and that's ok....can I count on pit space and electricity or do I need to bring my tables, chairs, canopy and power?? Either way is cool...I'm going to be there....just curious for packing and prepping on my end (6.5hr drive). Allez Montlucon!

The pit area have free electricity, table, light, you just need chair and extension cord.

Space is organized for poeple with some chassis (2/4), but if you have more than 6/8 chassis, you can come with one more table .

I will come with an extra table to show my chassis ;)
