I have a set of VTA tires i bought for the first USVTA nats. I ran them at the second one and took a few years off. They've been stored in the closet but not in a plastic bag. They have plenty of tread left but feel a bit dry. Should I pick up a fresh set for this year's nats?

As far as what was written into the rules and talked about its any ROAR approved 2cell lipo for USGT.....VTA has the 5000mah Cap. Not that you really need anything more then a 3800 really....but its there if you want it.

Our Local race track [OVRCCC] has adjusted our VTA requirments to allow the racers an easier way to keep racing
Saturday we had 9 VTA racers and we ran the ALL in the Main
Currently we allow 21.5, and the VTA required Speedo's
NO gear ratio limit,
We are discussing the possibly of allowing ROAR "TC SPEC" speedos
our racers feel they are very limited in Speedos so they are in favor of allowing more speedos in VTA as long as they meet the 'Blinky mode'
Now let the beatings begin!!

Is that beating enough !!??
It's still basically VTA and I'm assuming none of your racers plan on being part of a VTA sanctioned race nor is the club planning on promoting a sanctioned event.
I am curious though. "To allow the racers an easier way to keep racing"...What does that mean ?? I'm guessing EVERYBODY already has 21.5 motors?? Just a reminder and something you may not have thought about. As the speed increases, certain costs due to wear will increase exponentially. Tires in particular will wear out much faster and therefore each racer will spend more in the long run.
