Mino- I asked that question and the answer I got was there
was no rules-anything goes.Speed is not the answer- handling is ! Hopefully I get mine and have it ready by Friday evening.
I'll be glad to help you out - but I'd just go out and have fun with this class, that's what it is about.

I saw the SC trucks run about a month ago.... forget speed, work on not traction rolling through a corner. Or i guess it's traction rolling. Suspension was so soft that it would completely compress and the truck would go rolling over.

Looked like a heck of a good time though! I know my LHS has two on his shelf and i've been tempted to get one!

Exclamation Weather

Hey, I heard the weather is not looking good for Sunday, will we have to postpone the race to the next weekend if we get some serious down pours?

I really wish we could start using Saturdays before the points series races for test and tune rather than another day of racing. I am no longer going to participate in club races as long as they are back to back like this. Race day is too hectic to set a car up, especially a new one. It also isn’t worth risking the wear and tear the day before the points series race either. I would rather the club race occur on a non points series weekend for additional practice, not the replacement for practice. I also do not have the time to commit two whole days of the weekend to racing.
I am sure some will disagree, but I personally like arriving the Saturday before an event at my leisure to test and tune my car. Just my two cents, if others feel the same way I encourage you to speak up.
Good Luck!

I would doubt if the weather is bad that it would be the following weekend as there is a state race in Kissimmee (sat and sun).But you would have to ask Superior.
How many WGT are thinking about making the trip. I've still got 1 hour to wait and see if the sc truck shows up. That will make up mine mind.I'll let ya'll know as soon as I can.
