To clarify: In 1/12, the rules are 13.5-Lipo or 17.5-NiMH, just no IB sub-C batteries allowed.

From talking to Kumpol on saturday I think with the new speedo's and lipo's he's wanting to change to 17.5 for TC from 13.5 because the 13.5 is getting to be Mod speeds now. 17.5 this year should be just as fast as 13.5 last year.

What are the weight requirements going to be for 1/12th with the 3.7 lipo? Will we be using the ROAR 795 gram minimum? If so does anyone know how much to add to the CRC car (approx)?

1s 1/12th: 730 gr
1s WGT: 930 gr

I would assume these are the minimum weights for the class at Nexus as these are the minimums ROAR has chosen.
