Here are some links to other blogs and websites about RC racing and Mini racing in particular, as well as links to local and not-so-local businesses that I've found to be reliable, friendly, and value-for-money:
MINI RC BLOGS
http://www.sosidge.com/ - This blog is maintained by a fellow Mini racer at Chippenham Model Car Club, Dave Allen.
MINI RC WEBSITES
RC-Mini - This is one of the best single resources for Tamiya Minis on the net. Regular articles and informative guides and reviews written by enthusiastic Mini racers in Australia.
RCTech - The Aussie Mini Racing thread and the Tamiya Mini Cooper thread. Two threads on the most popular RC forum on the planet. Lots of great information here, although it takes some reading and patience to pick out the good information from the drivel sometimes.
MINI RC BUSINESSES
Reality Racing - I bought my 3Racing Oil-Filled Gear Diff for the M-05 from this shop. Quick and reliable and very friendly on the phone.
