Thanks!
Impacts and ribs will work. But with the cooler temps for this weekend super softs would work better

I was thinking the same. I bought the softs a while ago since I've been planning to race for a while. It just didn't work out. I'll pick up some SS just to be safe.

I have M4 Proline Microns bar type tread for 2wd Buggy will they work most of the day or only at night ?

I may just run 1/8 scale E-Buggy since i already have SS tires a couple sets.

From what I seen only when the track is damp and your in the groove.

Microns might be a bit too short of a tread to try and run. It does dust up a bit to the point Electrons and Suburbs barely hold on. Holeshots are always a safe bet.

I ran Holeshot X4 and M4 the past two weeks in ebuggy. If the track doesn't dust up as much I can get away with running Electron M4.

Also don't forget this Sunday is the Stock SC Showdown where teams of 3 will compete in a 2 hour endurance race to see who is the stock SC Showdown champion. There are still a few spots available. This race is limited to the first 12 teams to register and pay.
More details found on the facebook event page:
https://www.facebook.com/events/1789882421289659/

Something new this year is we will be holding an rc flea market during and after the race so if you have something to sell or are looking to buy something you should come check it out. Call the shop to reserve a spot.

Who's up for starting a buggy endurance race next year?

I wonder if buggies would last that long. Those trucks sure can take a pounding.

Awesome work on the video by the way.

E-buggys would last that long with battery swap could smoke it though amp wise.

I don't think my B44 would last that long. 2wd buggy wouldn't be a problem but it would take patience as the track would change.

Glad you guys had a successful season. My name is Dave Cowan and I'm starting to get HOBBY HUT RACEWAY ready for next season. I was wondering if I could get involved with you and other area tracks for a point series next year. Let me know what you think. Hope to see all the racers next outdoor season.
