We race SCT (Slash, SC10, Blitz ect) but have never had a turnout of Stadium Trucks. Were not opposed to running them if they show, we've just never had more than 2 here at a time

SCT turnout is generally somewhere between 10 and 20 trucks on an average race day.

No, trucks run in the open class generaly. We had an open mod class that housed 4wd buggys and 2wd trucks as well as mod 2wd buggys but everyone that ran the class went to running 13.5 2wd buggys and 13.5 SCT to be in a larger class. I have a T4 that I wouldn't be opposed to throwing electronics in if we had a group of guys that wanted to come out and run some trucks

If I don't change my mind, I will have my stadium truck back up and running by the Sunday race on July 18th.

Well thank you Ma'am. And sorry, I am bad about not even looking at names, especially at 8am (I work 6pm to 6am).

Try me.

I got my 8.5 system in today so I guess I will have to get a 13.5 if I get to make it.

What 13.5 motors do you have in stock? I am new to the BL setups. The ESC is a Novak 2s Sport Havok if it matters (it is sensored).

Come on out and run we will watch lap times during practice and I will either put you with SCTs or buggies depending on your lap times. Main thing is come out and have fun. I don't think either group would mind having you run with them.

I guess the main question is what kind of truck? Maybe it was said and I didn't see. If it's 2wd then it's 13.5 or 17.5 I run 17.5 but with a tweaked out esc If you make the trip up we will get you running one way or the other. We may just do the speed run test and adjust your epa on the throttle till your on pace with the others. Thats the great thing with brushless you can tune it to whatever it really needs to be. Just come have fun and run on a 1/10th specific track.


Oh and don't worry about the sir/maam thing I make the same mistake too sometimes and Im married to her Man Im gonna be in the doghouse for that one

You BAMA guys need directions give me a call before heading up. I may be able to save you some drivetime. We are about 40 min from Centre AL.

Jeff is running an SC10. an 8.5 in an sc10 is dangerous... When you come up, see if you cant get ahold of Austin or Trace, Jeff. Would like to see those guys again. Im suprised neither of them have been to any crawl comps lately

Yeah, its a SC10. I will probably just pick up a motor that you guys have. I do have a stock setup that I can run if needed. I am not an "over powered" type of driver anyway, I am more of the consistent type (usually).

Yeah, you might be in the dog house.

Its only dangerous if you don't know how to use it.

I have tried calling them both, not taking calls apparently.

we dont stock anything for a strike, nobody runs them out here. We had one guy out here a while back with one and it frustraited him so much he went out and bought a blitz the next day I think

As for the Slash we can probobly get you hooked up
