The Silverstone Radio Controlled Car Club Astro Winter Masters Series last year attracted over 100 drivers to each round and this year the organisers are looking to take things up a level with the tracks planned to be bigger and better, whilst still catering for the novice and providing sufficient challenge for the elite to try and beat the rest. Last year CML and Team Associated cleaned up in the 2WD, 4WD and short course truck classes so the gauntlet has been thrown down to see which manufacturer/driver pairings will be crowned Astro Winter Master Series Champions. The 1:10 off-road series takes place on a Saturday early in the month and runs from October to March with four rounds from six to count towards the final championship positions.
