Ya got me there Steve!....I have said that a time or two!

I've always had a liking for 12th scale....it's a great tuning tool for all scales of racing.

Some may remember they ran mod 12th at TFB....half the track as Nexus!

We need to stay on the track of this thread though..."what class are you running"

OK pass the popcorn.
Blistering is an understatement. They were blistering 5 years ago. I can only imagine what it is like today with batteries and brushless motors we have now.

I'd run mod 12th scale if there's enough people but 12th stock or super stock is my first choice.
mod touring/rubber tire will be my #1 class

Bob, what about you getting back on the track yourself? I saw you running the 8th scale a few weeks ago before Robbie got to the track. You should run with us to.

I'm going to run 12th. Would like to go with 19 turn or equivalent. Stock?... Kinda slow if you ask me. Even TFB's lowest class in 12th was 19 turn. But...if everyone in 12th goes with stock, then stock it is.

When their store front opens, I plan to impulse buy something to run there. No real idea yet on what kind of car though. lol

12th scale. Its fun, easy to drive, and (when running in stock) very durable.

Thats not possible to impulse buy at Nexus. Because even if you havent thought about it, they have. What ever you find in there will be well supported. Parts, help, parts, help, and parts too.

Pay attention to where and when Nexus races out of town. If you go and race where they race, they will have parts to support your car. Nothing like traveling with your shop. Sometimes you can even order online (While at the race) and they will just hand you your part. I dont know anybody else that can do that.
