Still in the process of putting mine together. Is it fine if I ran 17.5 boosted until we run mod?

The management and racers at Hot Shot have never strictly enforced any set of rules aside from series racing within VTA and USGT. What ever you have bring it. If you are fast then go on around. If not "on your left" might be heard

Last Wednesday was good fun and then Saturday was even better and without the drama . Who is in for this Wednesday? Some guys are just looking to win the race, some are learning the adjustments of there car and some are just out having fun running there 1/12.

BTW if we can get 10 to show Daniel will jump back in so lets bring them out.
