Team Associated T5M Discussion

On par,not on par. It doesn't matter as long as your having fun. I am a career mid pack racer. I used to get frustrated because I let competition get to me always trying to get a Amain win. Now I just show up to drive and set a goal to minimize mistakes. I have had a few nights now with no mistakes in the mains. That is winning to me.

We always have a ST class at the 2 local tracks I run at. We run super stock 13.5 stadium which seems to be competitive and steady for the past 5 months. I guess it helps when the track owner promotes stadium and it seems to be one of his favorite classes. I ran a mod stadium when they started the super stock and got rid of it figuring it wouldn't last, but it has. I would hate to get a truck and watch the class deminish though. Guess I should have never sold my T4.2

well the RT6 is about $500. The Ae would be close to half that. I would buy one. We have a good ST class here. I bought a used 22T to race and I just hate it. Its sitting on a shelf. I want a T5.

I would definitely buy one too!! Maybe next year...

I have been suggesting a change to the traditional race program (2-3Q's, 1 main), instead, going to 1-2Q's and double mains on points, like motocross. Maybe that is something that could be applied selectively to a class or two as a test.

It was good until I broke it. Not the trucks fault, all mine. I forgot to put the screws that secure the hinge pin at the caster block and after about 20 laps it backed out and broke an arm. There wasn't a class that night so I didn't bother trying to fix it. I just forgot that screw....I was pretty happy with it though. Can't wait until next time, should be mid June when I run next. I will definitely remember that screw.
