It's open to create some electric buzz there - other than slashes, nitro rules at VRP. The more the merrier and the greater opportunity for a couple new electric classes!

+1 about VRP - it's a very nice track and a lot of nice people. You won't be disappointed.

For those worried about Slash, all of the trucks run very close to one another so don't let the odd rules keep you away. Most of the people running it are there for cheap fun - the point of Slash.

Ill try to be there for slash spec.

I also wouldnt worry about running with 7 cell packs. Im running a 2s lipo. The weight advantage over that heavy 7 cell more than makes up for the increased power.
I ditched the 7 cell for a 2s lipo for that reason

for those worried about 7cell beating out 6cell dont. TQ the last few slash races has been set by a 6cell not a 7cell.

For those who have not raced there yet, dont judge it until you have raced. The rules are lax right now because hes just trying to get people to run, until he gets more people willing to race, the rules will be buttoned up im sure.

Well i just got back from this race and it had a decent turn out. About 10 slashes though. But it was close racing thru every heat and main. Alot of fun. Looking forward to going back and racing there again. For those that didnt come down missed out on a good day of racing.
